Folkroar is populated by creatures of mythology, fairy tales, legends and imaginations of our players. We are creating a narrative driven game experience that allows players to integrate their own characters and storylines permanently into our game world.
Players, creatures and items are all aligned to elements such as Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Light, Chaos and inherit their strengths and weaknesses. Investing into chosen combination of elements unlocks new abilities, grants unique effects and boosts resistances.
Our item system features thousands of unique wearables, each one with countless possibilities of various elemental and character bonus properties. Collecting a complete, or even partial wearable item set bestows additional unique powers to its wearer.
Here are some examples taken from our large equipment art collection. Our item generation system can produce an astronomical number of unique wearables. Our goal is to make sure that no two characters will be the same and that player choices are plenty.
Our abilities combat system is driven by character development and equipment decisions. Current abilities imrpove and new ones become usable as character grows. Do you want to be a Pyro, Aqua, Aero, Geo, Lumi or a Necro? A specialist or jack of few trades?
Just like there are many equippable items, there are many unique abilities can be equipped and custom ordered before every new monster or player battle. This allows for a novel combat system that encourages experimentation with various battle strategies.
Our crafting system makes it possible to create new items or improve existing ones by discovering craft recipes through experimentation. Any new recipes discovered can be shared with friends or kept a secret to provide player advantage.
In workshop it is also possible to socket equipment with gems, giving each piece of equipment additional elemental properties that increase attack, resist to opposing element and elemental effects such as critical hit, hit chance, dodge chance, block, heal and jinx.
When equipped, pets and charms improve character Focus, Fortune, Luck, Prospecting, Recycling and Appraisal. These properties uniquely affect various areas of character performace like abilities usage, frequency and quality of loot drops, craft quality and more!
Reading elemental scrolls permanently increases character elemental stats and presents an opportunity to explore other elemental professions, gain new effects, use more abilities and obtain elemental resistances without spending any development points.
Potions on the other hand offer a significant temporary boost to a specific element for a short duration of time and are useful to be consumed right before a challenging battle. This adds an additional layer of opportunity towards combat strategy planning.
Gold earned from world exploration, completing quests and challenging other players can be used to buy new equipment, weapons, pets, charms, scrolls, potions, gems, food and more. Shop will also purchase any items that are no longer needed for extra cash.
Our character creation system offers so many unique facial features and color options that no two players will ever look the same.
Players can chalenge others in the Arena and climb in rank up the worldwide PvP ladder. We have designed Arena system to be competetive and fair, allowing players to only engage those who present a challenge and disallow abuse. Will you make it to the top?
In addition to world exploration and player conflict, quests offer yet another way of progressing your character in our game. Players can visit Militia to take on these challenging quests and earn experience, gold and other useful items upon completion.
Folkroar world will be large and growing each day. We are starting world building around the main city and expanding out in all directions. Player contributed creatures, characters and storylines will be gradually integrated into the world for all to explore.
Each world screen will offer players multiple actions, such as movement, attack, using items, engaging in conversation, taking a quest and more. Each action will have unique consequences and affect the outcome of the story for the player.
The adventure element of our game, multiple storylines and opportunity for exploration is what will set Folkroar apart from all other games. We are very excited to be working on the first Adventure Game MMO hybrid game.
We are even more excited to involve community in building the Folkroar universe together with us. Our goal is to have each player create a part of the world and a storyline for others to explore and to experience. We hope that you will partake in our experiment!
