Hire an Adventurer

Score: 0

Welcome to Hire an Adventurer!

Dragon destroying your town? Minotaur mashing your village? Goblins going berserk?! Hire some adventurers to put the problem to rest!

In this simulation, you start with 200 silver coins. You can use this silver to hire adventurers to fight the monsters plaguing your village. See how many monsters you can defeat and how high of a score you can get before you either run out of silver, or the pool of adventurers are all defeated!

This program functions similar to a simple e-commerce site. You load your cart with adventurers to hire. You can add and remove adventurers from your cart. Hiring the adventurers will deduct from your stash of silver coins and you can hire more if they are available and you have the silver.

The game functions as such: once you've hired your adventurers on the cart page, you can then go to the combat page (you will be able to go back and hire more if you decide to). When you are ready, fight the monster(s). You will be informed whether or not your selected group of adventurers were successful in defeating them. Note that some monsters fly and must be fought with ranged attacks, and others are on terrestrial and must be fought with melee attacks.

As of this writing, the backend and database are simulated, so no progress is saved if you refresh the page. This will be rectified in a near-future version or update.

To start, simply go to the Available Adventurers section (the button is to the left on the navbar).
