We have something special for everyone who's always wanted to face the Tower but felt the genre was too unforgiving: a dedicated tutorial mode!
We know the learning curve can be intimidating, and not everyone has a patient friend to explain "aggro" or how looting and skills work. That's why we built a safe space for you to learn at your own pace.
Veteran adventurers are welcome too! It's never too late to brush up on the basics (or laugh at the Skelletons who are now playing the role of teachers).
Besides the fact that not everybody has a friend that could explain how the genre works, some learning approaches aren’t that effective.
Sometimes simply dropping the player in a dungeon to make’em sort themselves out between looting and surviving… It isn’t the best option. We know this context is the main thing of the extraction genre, but it’s not very welcoming for new players. Anybody in that position could be frustrated and quickly abandon the game without getting the chance to know what’s the real juice behind dying constantly until you get to escape for the first time **✨
By creating this safe space with a step-by-step experience for the newcomers, we believe that we can provide a learning enviroment for anyone to get in touch with the Core Loop of Shadows of Chroma Tower, which we had to revisit to set which steps would be included.
We had to go through section by section to understand what was missing here. We already have a Quest System that’s going to accompany you throughout the gameplay whether it’ll be in our outside the Tower… but that’s the “second step”. The first step comes before any soldier leaves Goldwheat.
That’s where our tutorial comes! Learn how to fight, flight and survive in this new enviroment before facing the true horrors from Chroma Tower.
