Mechanics

The Relic: The First Guardian is a third-person game. The player must traverse various locations, such as beautiful landscapes, grim settlements, dungeons and caves. As we traverse them, we meet their people, complete quests, take part in random events and face enemies. Apart from regular foes, we'll also face powerful bosses.

Combat requires constant movement, dodging and counter-attacking, observing the enemies' patterns to find gaps in their defenses. There are many different weapons to wield, such as shortswords, longswords, greatswords, shields, daggers, magic staves and many more. We can also make use of the environment in combat.

As we progress through the game, we develop our character, acquire and craft better equipment, as well as gather runes that increase our combat capabilities.
