Step 4 — Fight your first creature
Deer are gentle and drop the leather every flag needs. Wolves are not gentle. Learn the rhythm of a fight before you meet one.
Creatures live inside your circle too. Tap one, choose Attack, and your character walks into range and starts swinging. Fights run on their own — you do not mash buttons — but you can walk away at any time.
Start with a deer
A Forest Deer never attacks first and drops leather when it falls. You need leather for your first flag, so this is the fight to have early. If there is no deer near you, the tutorial card offers Find a deer, which brings one to you a limited number of times.
Reading the fight
- Your health bar sits bottom-left. Damage numbers pop over whoever is hit.
- Out of combat you slowly heal on your own. Berries and fruit heal faster.
- Your status dot turns red for a moment after you attack. While it is red you cannot teleport away.
Wolves and trolls
Wolves attack on sight and chase you a fair way before giving up. Trolls hit harder still, but they carry the best early loot, and with the right skill you can even recruit one.
What the tutorial asks
Kill a deer and collect its leather.
