Life Forge ORPG

Life Forge ORPG is a 2D online RPG set in a large world where you can explore, gather resources, craft equipment, take on PvE challenges and fight other players. You begin after an elderly man finds you unconscious on the shore and takes you home. With no memories and an unfamiliar world ahead, you decide what kind of life to build: you can become a hero or a villain, or focus on gathering, crafting and trading.

Quests and combat

You can take quests, explore dungeons and fight other players in arenas. Bosses use custom mechanics, and enemies target the fighter with the most threat; taunt skills can raise your threat. You can also use projectile weapons, cast spells, and encounter enemies that cast spells or use projectiles. Blinding and invisibility spells are available, as are Zelda-like puzzle systems.

When your character dies, you have 60 seconds to wait for another player to revive you or respawn at your last checkpoint. A quest log tracks your progress, and you can pin quests to the game screen.

Skills and equipment

Three skill trees let you spend talent points to shape your character. You can harvest resources and craft weapons, tools, armor and other gear from materials in your inventory; crafted items are generally better than items found in shops. Items have weight, and carrying more reduces your stamina and slows your movement. Strength and endurance can increase stamina.

Gathering and trading

Resources can be used for your own upgrades or sold to other players through the auction house or direct trading. The game also includes a player-run economy, guilds and player houses. Mounts help you travel faster, with different mounts moving at different speeds.
