OBJECTIVE OF THE GAME

In Black Souls, the main objective is to explore a dark world full of dangers and mysteries, as the player embarks on a journey to defeat challenging bosses and unravel a complex narrative inspired by classics of Western literature, such as the tales of the Brothers Grimm and the works of H.P. Lovecraft. Players are encouraged to immerse themselves in the game's unique universe, making decisions that affect how the story unfolds and experiencing a strategic combat system that rewards skill and adaptation.

Tips for playing

Here are some tips for doing better in the game Black Souls:

- Explore every corner of the map. Black Souls is full of secret areas and hidden items that can be crucial to your journey. - Pay attention to the item descriptions. They often contain valuable tips on how to defeat enemies or solve puzzles. - Try out different combinations of equipment. Sometimes a specific weapon or piece of armor can make all the difference in a difficult battle. - Talk to all the NPCs several times. Some of them offer secret missions or rewards that aren't obvious at first glance. - Save often and in different slots. Black Souls can be punishing, so it's always good to have a safe return point. - Don't underestimate the power of magic. Even if you prefer hand-to-hand combat, having a few magical skills up your sleeve can save your skin in many situations. - Remember that patience is a virtue. Bosses may require several attempts before you learn their patterns and discover the best strategy to beat them.

GAME mechanics

  • Collecting Sets - In Black Souls, this mechanic involves players aiming to collect cards and items that complete a specific set. Each set has its own bonuses and abilities that can change the course of the game. For example, getting the complete set of "Lost Artifacts" can significantly increase your character's attack power.
  • Placing Parts - The strategic placement of pieces on the board is crucial. Players place pieces that can represent combat units or defensive blockers. It will depend on how you organize your resources and your strategy to dominate the playing field. The right placement can, for example, pave the way for ruthless offensives or protect against enemy ambushes.
  • Building from a Model - Players use these mechanics to build structures or create specific combinations that generate advantages. By building according to predefined models, building bonuses can appear that offer extra resources or the activation of special powers. Imagine building an Ice Fortress which, once complete, reduces the damage received from opposing attacks by 50%.
  • Auction / Bidding - This mechanic adds a layer of economic competition to the game. Players bid to acquire powerful cards or rare items during certain phases of the game. It's a game of risk and strategy where the highest bid can guarantee control of valuable assets, but can also drain financial resources quickly.
  • Modular Tray - The Black Souls board is not fixed; it changes with each game. The modules or pieces on the board can be rearranged to create new configurations. This means that each game is unique with different paths, locations and challenges. This variety keeps players interested and requires adapting strategies with each new board layout.
