About Expect the Unexpected
Expect the Unexpected is a journey through the lands of Lorhaven, where the Gods choose you to collect the 12 Runes of Power and restore order. You travel between places, fight monsters, bandits and feral creatures, and make choices that shape your reputation and relationships with factions. Each new game creates a different world, and you can play as a hero or a villain.
Travel through Lorhaven
Move between cities along pathways filled with random events. You may encounter pirates, raiders, assassins, animals, traders asking for help, beggars, traps and ambushes, or choose a faction’s side in battle. More than 100 unique events bring action, comedy and suspense, and new events occur each time you travel.
You can accept jobs for money and reputation, trade goods in towns for better equipment and profit, and loot items to equip or sell. Factions may be enemies, friends or neutral, depending on the choices you make throughout the game.
Build your hero
Choose from five character classes: Fighter, Archer, Wizard, Druid and Necromancer. Each has specific skill sets, abilities and spells. You gain experience from skirmishes to learn or upgrade spells and abilities, customize your hero and hire a party to help on the journey.
Death and the afterlife
If you die, you are sent to a playable afterlife.
