Get ready to sweat as you tackle seven levels and one hardcore mode! We hope you enjoy it, and while you’re gearing up for those challenging tactical battles, let’s walk you through the ins and outs of Guards II: Prologue.
Gameplay Basics
It's pretty straightforward. You have four heroes and four slots on the battlefield where they start at the beginning of each battle. To attack your enemies, just swap any two heroes!
Remember, only three heroes on the front line will fight. The hero in the back row rests and recovers health.
Ultimate Ability
Each hero has two types of attacks: a basic attack and a super attack. When you move a resting hero from the back row to the front row, they will unleash their super ability.
Here’s what each hero does:
- The Wizard strikes a powerful blow and stuns the first enemy in line.
- The Warrior Princess throws their shield at the first enemy and gains protection for several turns.
- The Demon Hunter unleashes a barrage of crossbow bolts, hitting all enemies in their line.
- The Alchemist heals the hero with the lowest health.
Speaking of Health
Keep an eye on the health bar next to your characters and their health points. When it gets critically low, the bar starts to blink.
If one of your heroes falls in battle, you’ll lose the game. You can recover a hero’s health by:
- Moving them to the back row.
- Using the Alchemist’s Ultimate Ability.
- Using a healing potion. More on that lower!
Attack Types and Resistance
All heroes and enemies in the game have one of four attack types: Physical, Fire, Magic, and Death. Each unit is resilient and vulnerable to certain types of attacks.
Before the battle, study your enemies' stats and use the hero whose attack type the enemy is most vulnerable to. It makes perfect sense, but in the heat of battle, it’s easy to forget!
Using Items
From time to time, you’ll have a few items available to use before or during battle.
Note that boost potions can only be used before a level starts. Don't forget this; strengthening one of your heroes can be a game-changer during the fight.
Hero Upgrades
In the prologue, you'll have access to two hero upgrade systems. Be sure to utilize both, or advancing through levels will be much tougher!
You’ll find a talent tree where upgrades are purchased with crystals.
And temporary boosts between rounds bought with demonic essence. These are limited resources, so be strategic and enhance the hero who will be most beneficial in the next round.
We hope this simple guide helps you navigate the game more easily and maximize your enjoyment!
