What is Warrior Quest?

Warrior Quest is a single-player dark-fantasy dungeon crawler from solo developer Wizard of the North. It plays like a tabletop adventure: you type what you want to do, and fighting, sneaking, lying and bargaining all come down to dice rolls.

The game calls itself a Living RPG. Diplomacy is wired into the engine, so what you say and agree to changes relationships, objectives and the state of the world. The AI that reads your words runs on your own PC offline, while the writing, art, music and voices were all made by the developer.

Warrior Quest Ways to Play

Many encounters can be fought, avoided, sneaked past, talked through or solved some other way. You can get through much of the game peacefully. Violence, deception, greed and cruelty all have consequences.

Fight

Draw steel and settle it with combat. Sometimes chopping the goblin's head off is the answer.

Sneak

Slip past encounters without getting noticed.

Bluff

Lie and deceive your way through, then let the dice decide if they believe you.

Bargain

Make deals, offer bribes and recruit allies. The game remembers what you agreed to.

Threaten

Intimidate your way forward, and live with what follows.

Peaceful Run

Much of the game can be completed without violence. You don't have to be the hero. You decide who your character becomes.
