Actually, as mentioned above, all enemies on the ice stage attack you so grinding there is unpleasant, so you can also wait until the volcano stage. They are rare, yes, but selling four or five should give you more money than you'll need for anything else. So any expensive items you want, wait until you get to the ice stage, and then grind for ice shards. On the two "elemental" blades you can get from the Mage Guild: So, as soon as you level up, go back to the previous screen in the same level, and then return, to continue on in your progress. On the glitch that rosedragon mentions: I ran into it too, I found your stats are also corrected if you just go to another screen. The rest of the game is really annoying in dealing with enemies attacking you as soon as you approach (I'd recommend getting through the entire jungle and the entire ice stage as quickly as possible, and leaving grinding to the stages without spontaneously attacking enemies).Īlso, after a while I just gave up on using pets (switch to a weak pet, kill it off, then don't select another pet and you will remain sans pet), because they don't regenerate, and they die far too quickly (forcing you to either reload from the previous save, or loose all the leveling progress you've made with that pet). (4) The first two screens of the volcano surprisingly, the skeletons will not attack you. That is, neither mutants nor the black beetles will attack you spontaneously, and there are two or three screens with just those enemies. (3) The marsh, between the first screen (with three wild scorpions) and the female mutants on the fourth or fifth screen. (2) The grasslands have some areas within a given scene where you can stick to only grass beetles, and avoid the snakes and scorpions. (1) The beach, prior to the screen with the Sand Snakes. Level up in these areas, as getting in the first attack allows you a lot of control, let you not get ganged up on by enemies, lets you chill out and regenerate if necessary, and, if you want to level a pet, allows you to leave the pet elsewhere on the screen without worrying about enemies approaching and killing it. There are certain enemies that will not attack you unless you attack them first. Special internet high-fives to Amari and Dapostman10 for sending this one in! Players who don't have the patience to sit and grind away for more levels or cash will probably be bored with what Castaway has to offer, but for fans of the genre (and similar titles like Arcuz) as I am, it provides a nice chunk of RPG-lite goodness with simple, accessible gameplay. The movement controls are also a bit stiff, but a lot of that might be due to how it makes me pine for the fjords days of the 16-Bit RPG and accompanying controller. Visually the game is top-notch, although no circle of transparency means that characters and enemies tend to vanish when they wander behind scenery. The story is just an excuse to go to places with progressively meaner enemies, but it serves its purpose, and you'll uncover a satisfying amount of treasure and new abilities along the way. It's a little bit Azure Dreams and a little bit Breath of Fire 4 (particularly where the visuals are concerned), and if you like this sort of story-lite adventuring, Castaway is actually pretty good at what it does. Which you could tell yourself is appropriate given the whole "stranded on an island premise", but you'll probably just hurl your monitor out a window instead. You can only save the game when you're back in town if you die in the field, it's game over, and all your progress to that point will be lost. Be warned, however, that Castaway's biggest problem can actually be summed up thusly NO AUTO-SAVE. You'll also come across eggs dropped by monsters that you can bring back to town and hatch to get new, more powerful pets to aid you in battle. Fortunately, you have a pet to aid you in battle, who levels up as you do. Fighting enemies grants you experience points and treasure, and you'll have to spend a lot of time grinding your levels so you don't get flattened whenever you move to a new area. You move with the or keys and click on things to interact, whether that interaction is picking something up or staving its face in with a blunt object. Or whatever other, inferior name you want to give him. Likwid's isometric action/ RPG title Castaway starts off when a tow-headed lad washes up on shore of a tropical island inhabited by legions of nasties, a village beset by troubles, and the little one-eyed green thing who decides to follow him around. Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip.
