Overview

The world of DOA is stricken by war and the once defeated Orc tribes have again gathered their strengths and gained new allies to help them re-conquer their lost lands. It's a harsh time when deserters and cowards plunder and prey upon the weak and kill on the whim; a world that's in desperate need of a band of heroes to rally and save the day. Players use their wits in exploration mode to engage enemies at suitable locations and use the scenery to their advantage to increase their chances of success; while managing characters actions, even during travelling and camping in order to craft, repair or find useful items or just to protect themselves against enemy ambushes.

The player may choose from nine character races and six different classes. Each of the classes may then further specialize in a two different skills upon fulfilling its appropriate class advancement quest.

DoA has a robust inventory system, where every inventory slot is of a high importance, and especially so during the combat system. Each character has up to 30 inventory slots in total.

An interesting part of the game is the management of camping. This is when the players characters need to stop for a while in the open. While camping they may be assigned various actions via the camping management GUI, such as hunting, brewing potions, gathering, resting, tinkering, meditating and guarding. The results of these actions will affect statistics of some party members, the group possessions or the overall performance of the party.

About the world of DoA

The whole adventure takes place on an archipelago and this consists of nine separate islands. Every island has its specifics and distinct fauna and flora.

The biggest, and probably most important central island, bears the name of Nirma. This is where the war between humans (elves, dwarves,) and orcs (trolls, uruks, goblins) rages.

The next one is the Sanderman´s island, which was also the first island to be colonised by the humans and also where the oldest settlement of humans still lives and flourishes.

There´s also a pirate island, a volcanic island, and a mythical cursed piece of land, where people disappear mysteriously upon setting foot on it.
