Overview
The following article is a Serfdom & Sorcery review of help commands and other updates while the game is currently in Phase A. Phase A allows developers to adjust and develop coding to enhance the game with minor update-communications to the players.
The @PsyberX and @masterrpgbot community brings Serfdom & Sorcery to the realm of Hive and the convenience of Discord. Can't grind at your desktop computer? No problem! You can play this text-based game on your phone. The game is constantly changing to bring balance and convenience to its players.
Game Basics & Overview
- Players are welcome to join the Psyber X discord and register for the Serfdom & Sorcery text-based game.
- Register and select one of the following classes for play: Nature, Combat, Pillage.
- Play, interact, and purchase in-game items available anytime.
Registration
The @the01crow has very generously pinned simple instructions in the register here section of the S&S discord. I have taken the liberty of updating some of his work, though I did not have the time to cover EVERYTHING, unfortunately.
Users should perform the following to register:
- You activate the bot with the command !register.
- The bot will answer you, asking you what your username is; you must not put the @ symbol before your name
- You answer.
- The bot asks you what class you want to be in, Nature, pillager, combat.
- You answer with one of them; you type Nature, Combat, or Pillager.
Path to the Throne
While the amount of activities in the game continues to grow, any player's ultimate goal is to ascend to the royal throne as King or Queen of the Serfdom lands. The table below lists the current ranks in the game. Who will be the first ruler of these lands?
