QuadQuest II 1.01.83

QuadQuest II 1.01.83 is the second turn-based strategy adventure game, which offers you four quests to play with each quest having its own hero. You must select five party members to accompany the hero.

You have to battle more than 100 different enemies in medieval, mythical lands; and choose from more than 100 different items when equipping your party. The game play is the same for the two QuadQuests, but this one has four new quests.

Playing the Game

• Each quest will begin with it being your turn. Select one of the members of your party which is highlighted with a white square and then you will be given options for actions to be performed by the party member who you selected. These actions are described below.
• Select each of your remaining party members until you have performed an action with each of them. You can also select “End Turn” (located on the left side of the screen) at any time if there are party members who you do not want to move or use to attack. When you have completed your turn by either performing an action with each party member or by selecting “End Turn,” the enemy will take its turn. Each side will continue taking turns until you have defeated the enemies or until all your party members have been defeated.
• If your entire party is defeated, you begin back with the genie. You lose any items or gold that you collected before the defeat. At this point, you can either attempt the battle again or exit and load a saved game by selecting “Continue” if you saved your game while you were in battle.
• PLAYER ACTIONS
• • Move: When you select “Move,” the spaces where you can move this party member to will be highlighted with white squares as determined by your movement range. Select the white square where you want to move this party member. You can then confirm this move by selecting “Stay” or cancel the move my selecting “Cancel.” Or you can choose one of the other actions that are available.
  • Attack: When you select “Attack,” the area within this party member’s attacking range and line of sight will be highlighted with white squares unless there are no enemies within this party member’s attacking range. Select one of the highlighted enemies and this party member will attack with the weapon that the party member currently has equipped.
  • Magic: When you select “Magic,” a list of the party member’s magic spells is displayed unless the party member is not carrying any scrolls. Select a spell and then the range of the spell you selected will be highlighted with white squares as determined by the spell range and line of sight. Select an enemy if you chose an attack spell or a party member (including yourself) if you selected a heal spell and then the spell will be cast.
  • Equip: Select this option to equip the party member.
  • Items: Select this option to use, give, or discards items in the party member’s inventory. In order to give an item to another party member, the party members need to be standing beside each other.
  • Open: Select this option to open a treasure box. The party member must be standing beside the treasure box in order to open it.
  • Stay: If you select “Stay,” the party member will be placed in the current location.
  • Cancel: If you select “Cancel,” the list of player actions will be no longer be displayed.
• ENEMY ACTIONS. How an enemy performs the following actions is determined by the enemy’s battle behavior.
• • Move: An enemy will move within its movement range to gain a better position to attack or cast magic.
  • Attack: An enemy will attack a player character with its physical attack if the target is within the enemy’s line of sight and attack range unless it can do more damage by casting magic.
  • Magic: An enemy will attack a player character or characters with a magic spell if the target is within the enemy’s line of sight and spell’s attack range unless it can do more damage by attacking with a physical attack.
  • Battle Behavior: There are three battle behaviors for enemies: Defensive, Offensive, Aggressive. The battle behavior will determine the enemy’s artificial intelligence (how the enemy behaves). An enemy, within the bounds of its battle behavior, attempts to do the maximum amount of damage to its target(s) in one turn while staying as far away from its target(s) as possible.
  • Defensive: A defensive enemy will defend the location where it is initially placed unless it can attack at the end of its move. It will not move more than ½ its total movement range away from its initial placement location, returning to its initial placement location once it can no longer attack a player character. This allows for a defensive enemy to defend the area surrounding its initial placement location in one move.
  • Offensive: An offensive enemy will not move from its current location unless it can move and attack a player character in one turn.
  • Aggressive: An aggressive enemy will continually move toward the closest player character and will attack when within range.
• LINE OF SIGHT
• • Line of sight is a computer representation of visual perception. In QuadQuest, a target is considered to be within line of sight of a player or enemy character if a line can be drawn between the character and the target without passing through an object that would obstruct the character’s view. Line of sight serves the following purposes.
  • An enemy with either defensive or offensive behavior will only move toward and/or attack a target if the target is within the enemy’s line of sight. An enemy with aggressive behavior will move toward a target who is not within the enemy’s line of sight, but can only attack a target that is within the enemy’s line of sight.
  • A player character can only attack or cast a spell on a target within the player character’s line of sight.
