✧ 10 Unique Storylines

Tales of Glarthford is split into 10 separate storylines, known as "Tales", all of which take place in Glarthford and its surrounding regions. Each Tale introduces a new scenario into the world of Glarthford, requiring you to find new ways to solve certain problems. Additionally, there's a variety of ways to complete each tale - which will be the one you choose?

Featured in the map are 170 fully interactive characters, all of which are voice acted. Not only can you talk to and trade with characters, but other things, such as stealing their items while they are asleep are also a possibility. Furthermore, the day and night cycle of the map also affects what characters say and do.

✧ Turn-Based Combat

This map features a unique Turn-Based Combat system, which seeks to strike the balance between action and strategy. Team up with up to two friends, other characters, or perhaps even pets, to defeat a fantastic collection of unprecedented bosses and other engaging enemies. Take advantage of the assortment of items you collect in the overworld, by employing them against your enemies in combat. Will you be able to best all the bosses? There's only one way to find out.

If anyone's struggling with one of the tales, I've made a map showing all the solutions here.

I do not recommend clicking the link before completing all tales unless you absolutely cannot get past one of the Tales.

Map Usage: Use 'Change View' to select a Tale. Hover over an icon to see what it is & does. Click the red text in icon info to search for that.

Tales of Glarthford is now available on realms!
