The biggest ambush with addition to Titan Quest is that you can't play it until you beat the original game. To master a measly 10 hours Immortal Throne, your humble servant had to writhe for two days of pure time, pressing three buttons: attack, magic and a life restoration bottle.

Remembering the frantic passage of Titan Quest (faster, faster, the editor already called and hinted!), I want to take this entire magical arsenal, transfer it to real life and do something bad with the office Iron Lore . And at the same time, since there was such a booze, I should visit the company Blizzard Entertainment , without which there would not be Diablo– this depraved offspring of the Action/RPG genre. True, without her there is no World of Warcraft– and this would already be a serious loss.

It’s not even a shame that I had to go through again what was mastered six months ago and then safely deleted from the hard drive. It's a shame that after running through three acts and joyfully jumping onto the Immortal Throne, you discover that all your attempts are useless. The thirtieth level in the expansion is so funny that it becomes sad around the fiftieth suicide. But just like that, he was walking at night, came across a standard pack of monsters, started shooting back, and suddenly, to his own surprise, he died in two hits. I had to restore in my mind the half-forgotten “hit and run” tactic.

True, it doesn’t help much either: when a shabby level 35 archer takes away a third of your life with one shot, you begin to furiously figure out what’s wrong here. The rewards for the quests have not changed: in the original they never gave a single useful item, as in the addition. You can turn yourself inside out as much as you like, satisfying NPCs who are generous with tasks, but other than pitiful crumbs of experience, these efforts will not bring anything. However, those with free time have nothing to worry about: the level bar was raised right up to 75, and some “blue” items of the new act began to require “only” level 50.

But the designers have seriously worked on other aspects, and now Titan Quest does not look like a pathetic copy of Diablo with World of Warcraft impurities. First of all, this concerns the plot of Immortal Throne, which continues the original right off the bat. After killing the Titan Typhoon, a portal opens, leading to new adventures and the ancient Greek city of Rhodes. It was in it that the famous Colossus was later built (there is a small quest on this topic - accompany the lighthouse keeper to his place of work), and it is also the mythological birthplace of Helios, the ancient Greek god of the sun. From this remarkable place it begins crusade the main character to the kingdom of Hades.

On his heroic path he will meet the most diverse and famous ideas of the ancient Greeks about the underworld. This is the River Styx with its famous ferryman, Charon (don’t forget to grab a couple of obols), and the three-headed guard dog Cerberus, and so on. The plot of Immortal Throne neatly picks up the line of the original, continuing a series of epic adventures, legendary events and excursions through the fantasies of ancient storytellers.

Along with the expansion, Iron Lore introduced new game mechanics: for example, in large cities there were caravan owners, with whom you can store things obtained with your own sweat and other people’s blood. The storage capacity is small at first, but for 600 thousand gold it can be doubled, effectively equating it to a spare backpack. However, it’s too early to rejoice: the new features of the add-on require a bunch of different “relics” in their complete set (from 3 to 5 pieces), so the caravanner’s chest quickly becomes filled with little things that are unnecessary at first.

In addition, the storage has a second compartment where you can store things that are simultaneously accessible to “mules” or other full-fledged characters. Now you can not sell the “blue” that is useful to other classes with tears in your eyes, but simply transfer it to the second (third, fourth) hero. The appearance of the caravan driver is perhaps one of the best innovations, especially for those who intend to complete the game from the very beginning: thoughtfully and carefully.

Another useful NPC is the enchanter. He knows how to pull out “relics” and “charms” from various objects or simply free valuable equipment from them. In any case, one thing will definitely be destroyed in the process. One such operation costs a lot of money, so before you pull out some small thing from clothes that have become unnecessary, you need to think carefully - is the game worth the candle?

The same guy is selling artifacts - individual items that do not require a slot in the backpack. The artifact has a whole set of diverse functions, usually not focused on one/dual class, but offering everything in a row and discordantly. For example, 50% protection from piercing attacks, 100 hit points, 60 strength points and 10 percent energy recovery.

To acquire an artifact, you must first find, receive as a reward, or knock out the formula for its creation from a monster, then collect the necessary things (three sets of relics/charms) and take it all to the enchanter. Having peeled off a decent fee, he will create an artifact - now you can attach it and proudly carry it, demonstrating to everyone its incredible coolness. This is not to say that the creation of artifacts is stupid and useless; this detail adds a certain interest. But finding the formula and also knocking out all the necessary relics is not a task for a first-grader.

To the seven original skill branches, one more has been added - Dream Mastery. It is curious that Iron Lore did not create a whole new class, but simply strengthened the existing ones. The essence of "Dreamer" is to enhance certain aspects of the player. The hero using these talents enters a certain trance, increasing attack power, defense, or improving other skills. Therefore, it is best and easiest to use this type of skill in combination with others. Thus, it turns out that eight new classes have been introduced into the game, and this is enough for an enthusiastic hardcore player.

Another new thing in the world of Titan Quest is scrolls. They are incredibly expensive, but at the same time they improve life so much that you can’t help but think: it’s very difficult to play without them, but with them it’s very easy; Is there a terrible and terrible imbalance here? No, the developers believe, there is no imbalance here. If you're cool, you'll beat the game without scrolls. And if you are a pathetic loser, then save money and use scrolls. It’s very uncomfortable to feel like a pathetic loser; you need to either download levels (long and tediously), or spend money (with tears in your eyes), rummage through every corner and not miss a single “green” for sale.

(This, let me remind you, was 2007, when “legalized cheats” - in-app purchases - had not yet tried to conquer single-player games. - Ed.)

The design of new locations, including the kingdom of Hades itself, puts the Titan Quest engine in a favorable light. Not much has changed technically in the past six months, other than the introduction of a couple of new lighting effects, but the level of artistry seems to have taken a big step forward.

At first it seems strange and illogical to imagine Hades as a set of gray-blue-green textures, and not a dungeon engulfed in hellfire (see the caves before the Typhoon in the original game), but then the thought comes that such a “ghostly” implementation is there is “that world” where all the ancient Greeks end up. Lighting effects create a unique atmosphere thanks to correctly rendered shadows. The twenty new monster models are pleasing to the eye, and given their difficulty for a beginner, appearance and truly intimidating.

The sound was practically not altered. All the same melodies that accompany the player’s adventures and turn on, as a rule, when you least expect them. Episodes in Hades feature interesting effects such as echoes and howling winds. The atmosphere is accentuated by a dull, dreary and almost unintimidating environment. Unfortunately, there was practically no voice acting in the add-on - there are no new voices in Immortal Throne, and everyone is voiced by old familiar actors from the original.

The duration of the add-on is about 10-20 hours, depending on the level of difficulty and the player’s desire to explore the surrounding area, completing additional quests and collecting various items. You should not expect any revelations in this regard, the game mechanics remain classic and, with the exception of 30 optional tasks, everything follows the original “click the enemy 10 times per second” scheme. This isn't so bad at all, considering Titan Quest dedicated itself to killing Diablo II six months ago. Boss fights have definitely been worked on - now they require more attention to tactical techniques, and their duration does not always depend on the player’s level.

In summary: Immortal Throne does not include the richest content, new concepts and exciting gameplay. This is a classic addon with minimal changes, designed for maniacs who for some reason are interested in these tedious clicks for another fifteen hours. And you, by any chance, are not one of these?..

The only thing left to do is find her. You don't have to go far. Nisa is kept in one of the crypts of the Tsakon ruins. A simple task and a small reward of 25,000 experience.

In ruins. An army of strange monsters attacked the city of Paseron. Those who could ran away, but many remained. The next day, Theogen, one of the city guards, gathered a detachment and went to rescue those who were hiding in the captured city. Unfortunately, his squad was unable to resist the strange monsters. We are asked to find and deliver to a safe place all residents of the city. The reward is a magical jewel and experience. The task is simple. In different parts of the city, there are one, and in some places three, residents guarded by monsters with an aura. It is noteworthy that rare things fall out of these guards.

This is a bug: unfortunately, rescued residents stop halfway to freedom, and the task does not count.

Enemy leader. Strong monsters attack from all sides. One of the townspeople, Pythias, suggested killing the leader of the monsters. If he is right, then without a commander they will be significantly weakened. Let's go for Procea's head. The latter, by the way, lives at the exit from Paserone. For killing her, we are promised a magical item and traditional experience.

Dangerous task. Most of the refugees in the camp are injured or starving. They were in such a hurry to escape from Paseron that they only took their clothes with them. The boy Admet went to the dilapidated city to get food and medicine. But he was ambushed. Unfortunately, the boy cannot be saved. You can only do it last request- provide medicines to refugees. For this, the camp will reward us with experience and yellow metal.

This is interesting: we will meet Admet again. But already in the kingdom of Hades.

Stygian creature. The shadow near Charon's boat told us that in the depths of the Styx lives a monster that sometimes comes ashore and devours souls. You will find the monster on the other side of the river. To get there, cross the bridge in the east of the map. The Soul Eater can be found in the Stygian Swamps. By the way, for completing this task we will forever increase our strength, agility and intelligence by four points.

Leading the way. The boatman Charon has disappeared. The shadows of the dead cannot cross the Styx into the kingdom of the dead. Frightened, they crowded around the useless boat. The only one who tried to argue was taken away somewhere by the demons. We need to take the oar from Charon and free Hipparchus. After the battle with Charon, we cross the bridge, there we find the ghost we need. For completing the task we will be given some experience and a relic.

Plains of Souda

Treasures of Hades. According to the shadow of Aristonymus, Hades stores his wealth in a treasury just below the City of Lost Souls. Aristonymus has been trying to open the treasury for several centuries, but nothing has worked for him.

Interesting. The ghost has been unable to open the door for several centuries, and we must figure out the secret right away! There are four pedestals near the door. You need to insert a stone into each of them. The guardians of the stones will meet on the way to Hades; it is impossible to miss them. For opening a cache we will be given 100,000 experience. In addition, the contents of the treasury will also be ours. At the legendary difficulty level, you can find some very good things in chests.

Ashes of a titan. A long time ago, Zeus incinerated a titan with his lightning. From the remaining ashes, Prometheus created the first people. It is said that he did not use all the ashes, and on the plains of Judgment, a powerful guard, under the orders of Hades, still guards the urn containing the titan's ashes. The urn is located in deep caves in the Far Plains. From this ashes, the priestess of Leda will make an elixir for us, which adds two skill points.

Orpheus and Eurydice. Eurydice was separated from her lover, the great musician Orpheus. To find it, Eurydice needs Psyche's mirror. You can find him on the way to the Tower of Judgment. Eurydice will then open a portal to his prison. The prisoner is guarded by two cyclops. Colorful guys, and, God forbid, they wave batons. It's better to lure them out one at a time. As a reward, the lovers will give us magic scrolls and experience.

Invitation. On the Plains of Judgment, few shadows can claim to have accomplished anything remarkable in their lifetime. However, some of them have united and are trying to stop the demons. Kallikrates asks us to destroy the supplies in the demon camp. It looks like this will create serious difficulties for them. In the lower camp, find and destroy several carts surrounded by a halo. That's all, actually. As a reward you can get a magical jewel and some experience.

Necromanteion. Hades built the Necromanteion on the plains of Judgment, which became a temple and oracle for the dead. But the demons grabbed the priests and put them in cages. The demons have settled a giant Bone Beast in the temple and are feeding it captive shadows. We need to kill this creature before it eats itself to such a size that no one can resist it. The location is small. The creature lives not far from the entrance. Kill her and talk to the priestess. The task is completed, gain experience.

Admet in kingdom of the dead. Remember him? He, too, was captured by demons. After his death, he went to the Tower of Judgment, but demons captured it and did not allow him inside. Deprived of the opportunity to enter Elysium, Admetus vowed to help other shadows and earn the right to enter the fields of paradise. He suddenly appeared in the Tower of Judgment and opened a secret room that contained valuable items. Then he went to Elysium, where you need to talk to him in order to receive a reward for the task.

Secret struggle. Although the shadows who live on the Plains of Judgment are not heroes, they do everything in their power to thwart the demons. Keutonym, who leads these operations, is the demon himself, plotting intrigues for his fellow tribesmen. He will instruct us to intercept the demon messenger who is carrying a message to the vanguard. We go towards the Valley of Sorrow and kill the marked demon. We take the message to Kevtonim and receive a relic and experience as a reward. The task is completed.

Siege Walkers. The demons released five siege walkers onto the Enislasian fields, which inflict significant damage to the phalanx of heroes. There are other walkers walking around the field, but they are weaker than the five marked. By the way, be careful. Walkers shoot fireballs that do a lot of damage. For completing the task we will be rewarded with experience and magic scrolls.

Faster than the wind. Nestor is an excellent tactician. He sent a messenger to Ajax. We need to protect him. Nestor's messenger, by the way, is a strong guy himself, but he is very interested in fighting. If you don’t watch him, he’ll get carried away so much that you won’t be able to collect the bones later. We bring him to Ajax and receive a reward.

Achaean pass. Demons continuously attack the Achaean Pass, which is defended by Menelaus with a detachment of warriors. But Menelaus has too few men, and Ajax cannot provide him with enough reinforcements. Menelaus is wounded and needs our help. His men will fight as long as the flag is raised. We must prevent the demons from reaching the flag!

This is one of the most difficult tasks in the game. Demons will climb from all sides: first small ones, then more serious ones, and then whole heaps, supported by walkers. It is best to intercept attacks outside the camp, so that in the heat of battle some demon cannot sneak towards the flag.

Sabotage. A detachment of daredevils under the command of Menestheus sneaked behind enemy lines to create sabotage and allow Odysseus to finish the job. They plan to attack the bloody Queen Melina, who commands the demon troops in the area.

A typical task to kill the main boss. Be careful, the bosses are very angry even on normal difficulty. You may not survive even a couple of blows.

Palace of Aida

Crystals of Erebus. The heroes of Elysium learned that Hades had made five crystals to control his troops above, in the world of the living. It is necessary to destroy the crystals so that Hades loses control over all his troops and can no longer send them to the surface. On the way to Hades' lair, we destroy the crystals and gain additional experience in the amount of 35,000 units. Just attack them like normal monsters.

Warlords of Hades. Apparently, after the judges refused to lead the army of Hades, he appointed the three Macha patriarchs as commanders, endowing them with a piece of divine power. You can find these three patriarchs in the palace of Hades. They are marked on the map with a yellow icon with an exclamation point. By the way, as a nice addition, next to each of them you can find a chest with magic items. As a reward for this task, we will be given a permanent five percent increase in damage.

That's all, actually. Hades is defeated, the army of demons is scattered. The world is saved again. But who knows what could happen and what other threat will hang over the peaceful life of the ancient world...

New classes

As before, the name of the character's class depends on the chosen specializations. Here is a list of all the new classes in the expansion. The power of dreams is a seer. Military affairs and the Power of Dreams are a harbinger. Art of Defense and Power of Dreams - Templar. The powers of the earth and the power of dreams are the awakener. The powers of air and the power of dreams - the prophet. The Art of Hunting and the Power of Dreams - haruspex. Shadow Craft and Dream Power - Ghost. The power of the forest and the power of dreams - ritualist. The powers of the spirit and the power of dreams - sorcerers.

Hidden things

There is an item in the game menu. If you click on it, a line will appear. Try entering these codes into it and see what happens. Just in case, I warn you that nothing will happen to the character.

Boss Killing Tactics: Charon

The famous boatman sided with the demons of Hades. He guards the only bridge across the River Styx. Naturally, in order to move on, he must be defeated. And twice. But first things first. Charon uses several types of attacks. The first is a blow with an oar. He walks slowly and hits too. But if he hits... In general, when he swings, you need to run back. The second type of attack is bubbles flying from the river. They fall anywhere and cause decent damage. This also includes stationary water columns. It is better not to enter them, they cause a lot of damage.

Everything is in the power of the gods, the sages are the friends of the gods; but friends have everything in common; therefore, everything in the world belongs to the wise.

Diogenes

Not a single thing arises without a cause, but everything arises for some reason and due to necessity.

Democritus

The secret has long been known that will allow the game to linger for a long time in the minds of players and on the hard drives of their computers. And it is very simple - the presence of an editor whose accessibility will captivate everyone who is interested, and whose global capabilities will allow you to create your own projects and additions that are not inferior to the original game. Titan Quest is doing well with this - there is a global editor for levels, monsters and NPCs, which allows you to implement almost any plot based on it, no matter whether it is historical or fantastic. However, we forgot about the multiplayer mode - the second reason for the long-term love for the game. In this game it is brilliantly simple - joint passages and duels. Both open up new facets of the game, showing it in all its glory.

But all this is the “mind” of the game, and, as you know, they are met “by their clothes.” So let's start ad ovo, with the egg.

Thespians and comedians

Hundred-headed monster - Typhon,

Born of the earth. For all the gods

He rose up: a thorn and a whistle from his jaws

He threatened the throne of Zeus, and from his eyes

The fire of the frantic Gorgon sparkled...

Aeschylus "Chained Prometheus"

The backstory of the game world is quite short, which is surprising for a game based on the myths of Greece, Egypt, Mesopotamia and China. Let's start, perhaps:

As you all know very well, 12 titans of both sexes were born from Earth-Gaia and Sky-Uranus. The youngest and most cunning of them, Cronus, rebelled against his father, overthrew him and began to rule. And so that no one would encroach on his throne, he ate his children. However, one of them - Zeus - managed to escape. He subsequently returned, freed his brothers and sisters, who became Olympian gods, and led a rebellion against his Titan parents. In the war he was helped by the Cyclopes and the hundred-armed giants Hecatoncheires, who later became the guardians of the titans in the eternal darkness of Tartarus. Then the angry Earth gave birth to the monster Typhon with a hundred dragon heads. From him came many terrible creatures, but Zeus defeated him too, pushing Mount Etna down, causing it to become a volcano.

For a long time, the Olympians lived quietly, reaping the benefits of human love and respect. Their peace was disturbed only once, when the titan Prometheus escaped from an underground prison and, having stolen fire from Olympus, gave it to people. ( This is where the plot actually begins)

Apparently, a bad example is contagious, and centuries later other titans decided to escape. History is silent about how they managed to bypass the Hecatoncheires, but the fact remains - the titans broke free, and an orgy began, without Bacchus and on a cosmic scale: mischievous satyrs and centaurs turned into shaped animals, the living dead, lizards, rat-men, jellyfish climbed from everywhere -gorgons...

But the worst thing is that someone thought of digging up Typhon, and he again began to smoke all over the world. The Olympian gods could not cope with the new scourge on their own, and they needed heroes. We will become one of them.

On the way to Olympus, Greece, Egypt, Babylon, and even far, far away China await us. We will cover this entire distance on foot, destroying thousands of titan minions along the way, and finally return to Olympus, talk with Zeus and we'll kill Typhon. And it doesn’t matter that even Zeus failed to accomplish this - our business is forced.

But don’t despair, the road will be extremely exciting - and don’t look at how linear it is.

Heroes of the Ancient World

I see, child, as they say, that your breed is noble!..

Homer

So, we have a plot. For a good play, we now need to find an actor for the main role. Let's press " New game"And let's choose: name, gender, dress color? It doesn't matter at all, it has purely aesthetic value. Let's scroll further!

Here in front of us is Helos, a Greek village, and here we can, by pressing a key C , see your alter ego and the accompanying equipment, a “doll” and a passport. What do they mean?

Primary Stats

Attributes

• Health reserve ( Health) — shows how many more times the hero needs to be hit for him to be reborn.
• Mana reserve ( Energy) - shows how much more you can conjure. If the hero is hit, it may decrease.
• Strength ( Strength) - the amount of damage caused by melee weapons and the ability to use heavy armor and weapons depend on it.
• Intelligence ( Intelligence) - the amount of damage caused by elemental magic and the speed of mana regeneration depend on it.

Becoming more experienced

With every enemy defeated and every quest completed, your experience level increases. The green stripe below shows how much time the savior of the whole world has left until the next level of his career.

This is the advice: summoned creatures do not receive experience, but transfer it entirely to their master. So don’t be shy and call your partner as soon as possible. Almost any discipline allows you to do this, and this friend will come in handy more than once or twice. Either cover yourself like a shield, or break away from the chase...

When a hero gains a level, nothing increases automatically. He receives 2 Attribute points and 3 Skill points. Attribute points can be invested in any amount into strength, intelligence or agility, which will increase the corresponding attribute by 4 points for each invested AP. If you invest them in health or mana, then their supply will increase by 16 points in the same way.

By spending 1 SP, you can upgrade any available skill by one unit.

But before you develop your skills, you need to figure out what’s what. So...

Disciplines

The beautiful is comprehended through study and great effort, the bad is assimilated by itself, without difficulty.

Democritus

Having reached the long-awaited level 2, we get the opportunity to choose our first discipline. You should approach the choice carefully, because the follower of each skill has a radically different principle of play. From this moment on, we receive one of the basic 8 classes (according to the number of disciplines), and at the 8th level of experience we will have the opportunity to study the second and final discipline, after which our alter ego will establish itself in one of the advanced 28 classes, resulting from a combination of 2 disciplines.

Within each discipline, you can learn various skills/auras/spells or improve your main skill ( Base Skill). You can increase it up to 32, and each level will increase class attributes, as well as open access to other skills/auras/spells. They can also be studied repeatedly, but in this case only the effect of this particular branch of skills increases (usually there are 2-3 of them), without affecting the rest.

For example, by choosing the Nature Magic discipline and raising the main Nature skill from 0 to 1, we will gain attributes: +2 intelligence, +1 agility, +21 health and +10 mana, as well as access to the following skills: Regrowth (1) And Call of the Wild (1). Here and below, in parentheses next to the name of the skill, the number of points that you need to have in the main skill is indicated if you want to teach.

The number of possible strategies is incalculable, and if we also take into account that the skills of different characters can be combined in any way in one game, then we get truly limitless possibilities!

Warfare Mastery

Equipment

Fundamentally, weapons and armor in Titan Quest are no different from their counterparts in Diablo 2.

They still have a prefix before the name, for example Iron Ax, which indicates that the ax is made of iron material and has the appropriate level of quality. There are 145 prefixes in the game. This number also includes unique and quest items.

In addition, all magical weapons also have a suffix in their name, by which one can determine the spell cast on it. For example, the name Short sword of Agility tells us that the lucky owner of this sword has increased agility. There are only 121 suffixes in the game. What a blessing that you don’t need to identify anything in Titan Quest.

There are 4 slots for weapons, the main and additional ones for the right hand and the same number for the left. Moreover, on your left hand, without special skills, you cannot take anything except a shield. You can put a little on yourself: a helmet, armor, bracers, leggings, a couple of rings and a necklace. Yes, in ancient times people always wore sandals and bare thighs, so we will not wear boots and trousers that have not yet been invented.

In addition to weapons, shields, armor and bottles, the game contains Relic Shard - debris from magic symbols, which can be used to enchant weapons. But you can wait and accumulate five identical ones, and then they can be combined into one full-fledged artifact. Each type of Relic, and there are 75 types in total, allows you to enchant a certain type of equipment - armor, shield, or weapon, adding a new property to them. This could be a banal reduction in armor requirements, an increase in armor, acceleration of regeneration and addition of poison damage.

Altars and wells

In addition, on the way to Olympus, the Wells of Rebirth and Enchanted Altars will be an indispensable help to you.

Once you touch the Well, you will bind your immortal spirit to it, and in the event of your tragic death, the blessed waters will revive you next to it again. Wells are generously scattered everywhere, you will find them in every second location, and therefore the path will be pleasant. If you leave the game, you will also wake up next to the Well, and not in the nearest city.

Enchanted Altars have a completely recognizable shape and a glowing aura around them. If you touch the Altar, it will bless you once, after which the savior of Hellas will have a positive company for a short time. This could be additional protection, increased regeneration, and an increase in all skills... But the absolute top of the pyramid in terms of attractiveness will be held by the Altar, which doubles the experience gain!

Altars also serve as a kind of “litmus test” - by their presence you can determine that there is a difficult or dangerous area not far ahead.

In the name of Zeus!

Love is the desire for intimacy caused by the appearance of beauty.

Zeno of Citium

What we have in the end is an excellent game in the Diablo genre, like a beautiful antique statue, carved in imitation of a person. Yes, she is not so flexible, but she is attractive and monumental.

The first players are already mastering the multiplayer spaces of online Hellas and glorifying the Greek gods in all parts of the world. Let's not lag behind them! And if you also like the game, then we will return to it in “Tips from the Masters” and talk about what else is worth paying attention to.

Well, good luck!

Do you know what?..

The director and chief designer of the Titan Quest game is Brian Sullivan, who founded Ensemble Studios back in the early 90s. It was in it that the illustrious game Age of Empires, now widely known and revered, saw the light of day. Brian even received the “Best Game Design” award for it at the Game Developers Conference in 1998. However, his favorite creation was and remains the game Age of Mythology, from which he drew inspiration, deciding to take episodes from the real history of the ancient world, add a little mysticism, creepy monsters and magic - and the result is an original and exciting role-playing game! Despite the fact that Iron Lore is a very young game studio, people who worked on Asheron's Call and people from Blizzard found themselves in it, so success and the creation of new masterpieces are probably ahead of them!

1 – Typhon
Typhon is the biggest and baddest of the big and bad bosses. It deals heavy damage and can perform special attacks. How to defeat him? Well, there are a few tricks.

First, notice the statues (S) around Typhon. If you move the mouse pointer over it, you can attack the statue and destroy it. If that doesn't work, check out the 4 Greek God Statues (#2). If Typhon destroys any of these statues with his attack, he will lose some of his abilities. You need to be careful with Hades statues. If Typhon destroys one of them, he will increase his health drain attack and can fully restore his health (even if you have 100% damage protection). Obviously you need to keep Typhon away from this statue or destroy it while dodging Typhon's attacks. The third trick is less important. If you run back down the way you came, Typhon will return to the center. If you have a ranged weapon, you can try to keep Typhon away from you (as you jump to the top) and then retreat back (to where you came from), while constantly attacking him.

However, as long as you keep Typhon away from the Hades statue, it doesn't matter how close you are to him. The only way to regenerate Typhon's health is through the statue of Hades; and if Typhon does not have access to it, each of your attacks brings Typhon's death closer. Even if you die several times, you can weaken and kill him.

When Typhon dies, the game will be over. You will receive 30,000 experience; Zeus will congratulate you; a portal will appear (exit A); Typhon will drop Typhon's essence, which is similar to a large magic ball that once fell out of Telkin. Congratulations on your victory!

2 – Statues
If Typhon hits one of these statues, it will lose some of its features. The Apollo Statue gives him an energy drain attack and allows him to cause meteorites to fall. The Demeter Statue gives him a poison attack and the ability to paralyze. The Statue of Hades gives him a life drain attack and allows him to summon liches. The statue of Zeus gives him the ability to attack with lightning. To prevent Typhon from taking advantage of these opportunities, either keep him away from these statues or destroy these statues yourself.

Outputs:
A: Portal of Victory. By exiting through this portal, you will be taken to the main menu of the game and will have access to the next difficulty level. However, if you return to the current difficulty level, you will start from the last healing source you activated; so if you want to shake good things out of Typhon, use this.

And then the earth blossomed, and mortals began to live on it. But, having become proud, the gods forgot that even from their prison it is possible to escape..."

“One day the sun will dim and darkness will fall upon the world. Temples that have stood for centuries will be destroyed, Paradise will disappear and the gods will flee to earth.
One day the weak will prevail over the strong, the rhapsodists will stop singing and take up their swords.
In these dark times mighty heroes will be born.”

ACT I GREECE

1. Restless Village

One morning you are surprised to find yourself on the bank of the river, near the village of Gelos. “Apparently, the party was a success...” - a lonely thought flashes through my head. Judging by the presence of a boat at the pier behind you, you got to these parts by water. The vacation began unexpectedly, but you were caught in warm regions, moreover, with a large number of attractions and various tourist routes.

The boatman Korif, standing not far from you, will tell you that your intention to admire the surroundings and take a fascinating walk with a local guide cannot be realized. More precisely, you will be able to take a walk, but only if you are well armed and prepared to fight hordes of enemies. Naturally, you can’t count on a guide either - apparently, they boldly hide in the surrounding bushes and forests.
The reason for this turns out to be extremely simple. The village of Gelos, located nearby, was attacked by mythical creatures - satyrs and other monsters. Your sword and military skill will come in handy: the village needs help, and urgently, because monsters are preventing the peasants from getting to the fields. There are no supermarkets nearby, nor fast food, so the locals will die of hunger without you. So, go ahead, dear one, to the embrasures!..
After walking literally a couple of dozen steps, you will see the poor farmer Timaeus running away from the satyrs operating in his field. Seeing you, the poor fellow will begin to beg for help - his only horse is in mortal danger and he needs to kill the satyrs who attacked it. It turned out to be quite easy to kill the satyrs (fortunately, the satyr is such a half-drunk horned creature...), and now the joyful Timaeus bestows you with experience and his gratitude. But you urgently need to go to the village that was attacked by monsters.
As you approach the village along the road, you will see several satyrs fighting with the guards. After killing them, you have the opportunity to proudly walk along the main street of the village and say hello to the headman, Diomedes, who stands at the bend in the road. Diomedes, with a trembling voice, will inform you that the village urgently needs help in getting rid of the satyrs, led by the satyr shaman (who, presumably, drank more than the rest of the satyrs). The enemy is located in the forests across the river; you can get there via the bridge located next to the headman.
In order to kill the main villain, i.e. satyr-shaman, you will need to go to the farthest end of the Gelos Forest location, simultaneously clearing the territory, as well as getting hold of new weapons and armor.
Killing the boss is quite simple, and besides, near the shaman’s location there are two battle altars, which turn the entire battle into a disco with lights and music (the music is a funeral march, of course).
After admiring the trees and burning fields, you can go with a clear conscience for your reward, which will be given in gold and exp.
Finally, Diomedes will ask you to take a quick walk to the Spartan camp and find the military leader Leonidas there, who should send a detachment to protect the village.

The walk to the Spartan camp will be quite long and pleasant. Along the way through several locations, you will complete several additional quests, which will significantly increase the amount of available experience.

2. Spartans at war

Arriving at the Spartan camp, you, like any petitioner, will first go to Leonidas. But that’s not the case - they won’t let him in under the pretext that he’s supposedly busy, and in general - all sorts of people hang around here. Leonidas's guard, Brasidas, will advise you to first warm up with the centaur Nessus, who makes life very difficult for the Spartans, and no one manages to kill him.
A malicious centaur and his accomplices have entrenched themselves in the Pellan Valley, and it is necessary to destroy the monster in the name of goodness, justice, to protect the humiliated, the weak and the oppressed. And so on down the list.
A centaur who has really dug in at the exit of the valley is a somewhat unpleasant enemy, because... constantly encourages his allies with the sounds of his horn and throws traps. But, nevertheless, killing him is not too difficult.
Helped Ness throw off his hooves? Then you can safely go to Leonid - the guards will let you through to him without objection, simultaneously singing praises of your military virtues and courage. After talking with Leonid's guard, you will receive the due reward and permission to see the military leader. But only very, very quickly, because he is an important person and he has very little time.
Having complained about his fate, people and monsters, Leonid promises to send a detachment of warriors to Gelos for protection. But he will have a new task for you: the only way to understand what is happening and why is to go to the Delphic Oracle in the Temple of Apollo in Delphi. But they don’t go to the oracle empty-handed, so along the way it would be advisable to drop into Megara, the local shops, and Timon’s to choose a suitable gift.

3. Oracle's Predictions

The path to Megara will be quite long - Greece, as you can see, is a rather large country. Moreover, taking into account that everything is there... As always, along the way you will have to complete a couple of quests. It will be especially pleasant to fight with spiders - in order to get to this location, you need to go left from the direct road to Megara, a little short of reaching a small village called Tegea, which is not even equipped with a portal (there is not even a portal, you are completely behind the times! ).
Having arrived in Megara and finding Timon (though without Pumbaa), you will find out the next goal of your journey. The best gift for the Oracle will be nothing more than a branch of the sacred olive. While discussing your task with you, Timon, incidentally, will provide you with a backpack, which is very nice.
The olive grove is located very close to Delphi and you will not be able to pass by - the grove is on fire, and there is such smoke above it that it is simply terrifying. This is not the village of Villabaggio with its burning hemp fields!.. Eurytim, the owner of the olive grove, will bitterly inform you that there is a fire in the grove (but we didn’t notice!) and it’s all downright stuffed with monsters.
A walk through the grove will not give you the opportunity to breathe fresh air - the grove is on fire, sparks are swarming around, and smoke obscures everything around. Moreover, the monsters, represented by spiders, are trying to poison you with poison - as if smoke and fire were not enough. Fortunately, the grove burns quite safely - the road is wide, and the fire does not cause damage.
Approaching the desired goal, you will find that the sacred olive tree is guarded, and not by anyone, but by Arachne, the queen of spiders. But it’s not difficult to cope with it, and now you are already at your goal - under the shade of the sacred tree. You will see a branch on the pedestal. By touching the pedestal, you will break the spell and the branch will fall. Pick it up - and boldly forward to Delphi, where the Oracle has already been waiting for you.
After passing through fire, water and copper pipes, you will find yourself in Delphi. Approaching the temple of Apollo, you will meet a servant named Astyoch, who will take your gift to the Oracle from you, although she will not forget to thank you. After this, it will be possible to “enter and appear before the great Oracle.”
Upon entering the temple, you will see in front of you the Delphic Oracle, sitting on a fancy chair with vibration massage and relaxation instead of a traditional tripod. Seeing you next to him, the Oracle will begin to broadcast (in poetry, in the best traditions of Russian folk ditties) that the answer to the question of the reason for the appearance of monsters can only be found by passing through the Parnassian caves. The Oracle will not give any practical advice; he will only continue the good tradition of sending the hero somewhere far away. In general, go there, I don’t know where, dear, but I don’t feel sour in my chair here...
In Delphi you will meet not only the standard set of inhabitants - rhapsodists and other blacksmiths and healers. There is a special person there - a mystic, whose skills can be redistributed within the selected schools (for a fee, of course).

4. Lair of Monsters

Your path will be through the southeastern gate of Delphi. After passing through the gate, you will find yourself in the Parnassian Highlands, the journey through which ends with the entrance to the cave. After walking through the caves and arranging a planned cleanup in them, you will find yourself on the Parnassus Plateau, where a portal and a satyr merchant will be waiting for you.
The second bridge across the Parnassian plateau will reveal a great secret to you - a huge camp of monsters is set up on the plateau. The oracle told you about this, but the knowledge escaped your memory, hiding somewhere in its nooks and crannies. Well, forgetfulness is common to many people, including great heroes... In short, what's the point of complaining? Anti-sclerosis pills and a faithful sword are your main allies.
Exploring the surroundings of the camp leads to the realization of the need to go down into the dungeon again, but nothing can be done about it.
The Pythian caves, which you will find yourself in after successively clearing the Lower and Upper camps of enemy forces, are almost impossible to miss. The entrance to them is decorated with various sculptural groups - as it turns out later, the sculptures were created by Medusa the Gorgon. You will see Medusa and her two sisters, the Gorgon queens, upon entering the cave. Defeating the snake-haired family is quite easy, but health bottles won't hurt.
With your victory over the Gorgons, you will contribute to the revival of Feyan, an eastern warrior who has embarked on the path of revenge and wants to kill Telkhin.
She will tell you about Telkhin, whom she tracked down and was going to elegantly eliminate. But there was a bummer: the Gorgon sisters stood in her way, interrupting the swift path of the avenger. Feyan will also tell you that Telkhin is leading an army of monsters to Athens and wants to besiege the city.
The gate behind Feiyan will open and she will head through it. You need to go there too - this is the road to Athens.

5. Battle of Athens

Approaching Athens, you will see traces of the Athenian massacre - apparently, the city was besieged, but, as it turned out, it managed to survive.
At the gate you will meet Leonidas, who led his soldiers to defend the city. Leonidas wants to hear the prophecy (it was he who sent you to the Oracle in Delphi, what a great fellow!) and find out news about the monster camp on Parnassus. Seeing you, Leonid will be very happy - now he is absolutely sure that you are a hero and incredibly cool (did he have doubts?).

6. Order of Prometheus

Leonidas will tell you that he was informed about monsters that had entered Athens. Head into the city and find out how the monsters got inside.
After visiting all the necessary merchants and activating the portal, you will need to go to the Acropolis. At its steps you will meet a frightened man who, with a trembling voice, will beg you for help. He will babble about how monsters have fallen from the sky and that they are looking for something in the Parthenon.
The entire Acropolis is filled with monsters. Moreover, some of the monsters penetrated into the city itself. Having entered the Acropolis and admired the statue of Pallas Athena (we are cultured, we read guidebooks after all), you will go down into the catacombs in order to prove to Leonidas that you are cool. One more time.
Your path lies all the time down to the fifth level of the catacombs - it is this that will turn out to be fateful. Behind the Carved Stone Door is Alastor, Acheron's tormentor. He will rush around the tombs and clone 3 skeletons at a time, and even drain energy from you. Overall, she's a charmer.
Having dealt with the formidable enemy, you will meet with the old philosopher Phaedrus, head of the Order of Prometheus in Athens.
Phaedrus will tell you that an army of monsters, led by Telkhin, headed to Knossos on the island of Crete. There they are looking for an ancient artifact, with the help of which the Order of Prometheus contacted the gods (presumably, a mobile phone made of pure gold). Without this artifact, the gods will never know that monsters roam the earth, and people need divine intervention and help.
In your hands is the fate of the whole world (for the umpteenth time)! You need to stop Telkhin as quickly as possible!
Therefore, you must hurry and urgently go to the docks, where a faithful person will be waiting for you (for the umpteenth time).
Once at the Athens docks, the first thing you will run into is the unbalanced warrior Feyan, who will immediately begin to scream resentfully that she herself wants to stop Telkhin, but, instead, she is sent to the East on some mission. But, alas, she is forced to obey. Having generously forgiven you (isn’t Feiyan a delight?), she will show you the ship you need and tell you that in Knossos, under the palace, there is a labyrinth where, in fact, an artifact connecting the world of people and gods is kept.

7. In the labyrinth

Sailing to Crete, you will land in the vicinity of the village of Heraklion.
The villagers will readily tell you about the monsters that have recently passed through these places and complain about the unrest that is going on.
It turns out that you are almost stepping on Telkhin’s heels - he was in Heraklion literally the day before. Unfortunately, many fell ill from his presence, and the healer, as luck would have it, went to the mountains (a prankster climber was found) and has not yet returned (which, in fact, was to be expected).
You will have an exciting journey and a great opportunity to get acquainted with the fauna and beauty of the island of Crete, in addition, the trip will be very useful in terms of experience and money.
After going through many dangers and defeating many enemies, you will find yourself in the Labyrinth of Minos. You will have two main tasks: defeat Telkhin and protect the artifact.
After wandering through the labyrinth for quite a long time, you will find yourself in front of the first obstacle - as usual, it will be a Carved Stone Door, behind which the enemy is hiding. The enemy will be the Lord of the Minotaurs - a fairly easy to kill boss. Having defeated him, you will have to go to the Hall of the Mediator of the Gods, where Telkhin Megalesius is already hanging around.
To begin with, he will launch several stone statues at you (lazy guy, he shouldn’t rush into battle himself right away!), and then he’ll get down to business. Those. for you. In vain...
Of course, since you are insanely cool, the pest has come to an end. But, alas, Telkhin managed to destroy the artifact, and now the gods will not be able to hear people.
Congratulations - you have successfully defeated the first Telkhin. Cyrus from the Order of Prometheus, who bravely watched the battle from hiding, will also want to congratulate you. He will long be surprised that a mortal was able to defeat Telkhin, because this seemed impossible to everyone... But what to do - the artifact is broken, the prayers of people will not reach the ears of the gods, and without help higher powers People will never be able to cope with hordes of monsters! Cyrus will also report that Leonidas managed to unite Greece under his auspices, but the trouble with the people is that they do not believe in their own strength, relying and hoping to a greater extent on divine intervention in the battle.
Alas, the only way is to go to Egypt for a rendezvous with the sage Imhotep, head of the Egyptian branch of the Order of Prometheus. He knows a lot, and perhaps he will be able to contact the gods in some other way, and not just with the help of a lost artifact. After all, cell phones rule, and our pings are fast.
You need to look for Imhotep in Rakotis, where the captain of the ship anchored on the river, not far from the labyrinth, will readily take you.

ACT 2. EGYPT.

1. Find Imhotep in Rhakotis.

After you get off the ship, you just have to walk forward along the pier and you will see Imhotep, who is just waiting to talk to you.

2. Get the Scroll of Summoning from Rakotis's library.

Imhotep will greet you with open arms and tell you how great you are for defeating Telkhin! You are simply incredibly cool (take the pie from the shelf)! And the respected one will tell you that chaos reigns not only in Greece, but also in Egypt. Their pharaoh fled from the palace in an unknown direction, presumably to the pyramids, the troops cannot cope with the invasion of monsters, the free Internet has run out, in general - everything is terrible! But he, the venerable Imhotep, knows how to contact the gods, even despite the fact that the artifact was destroyed (the comrade is clearly asking for praise, don’t you think?). There is a ritual with which you can turn to the gods. To do this, Imhotep will need a certain Scroll of Challenge, which lies in the library of Rakotis. You need to find this scroll and bring it to him. It seemed that it could be simpler? But the library, of course, is full of monsters. With farewell farewells, Imhotep will wave his hand to us and inform us that he will go to Sais, where he will be waiting for you in the temple of Ptah, sipping a pina colada and studying cable television...
Well... Go to the library, which is located in Rakotis - the path to it runs through the Slums of the glorious city.
On the first floor of the library we meet the frightened and shaking Neb-pa-n-ra - the head of the library. He will tell us that the scroll we are looking for is located below, but going there is pure madness, since it is full of monsters! Well, let's go down to the Archives and methodically clear them (we won't encounter anything serious there). In the Archives we find a staircase leading to the basement, going down there, killing several monsters and entering the Mysterious Door. There we will have a battle with the Scarab beetle (if you have at least five bottles of life potion or one can of Dichlorvos with you, you will defeat it in one go). After defeating the beetle, we go into the small room behind it and take the Scroll from the pedestal. A secret exit from the Archives opens up for us, we stomp there - and here we are in the desert outside the city. All that remains is to reach Sais and find Imhotep there.
We pass Hathor Bay, Wadjet Gorge, the Nile floodplain and enter the village of Says. Immediately outside the village there will be a temple of Ptah.
As you get closer to him, you will see Tutti from the Order of Prometheus. He will tell you in vivid colors that Telkhin came at night and destroyed everything (apparently, the adversary was a little tipsy), the temple servants were left with the feeling that he was looking for something in the temple, but what exactly is unknown (there are suspicions that it was a pickle) ... The warriors were unable to kill Telkhin (naturally, it’s only you who are cool enough), and Imhotep quickly went to Memphis and is waiting for you there. Okay, we’ve convinced you, we go to Memphis, which is located not far from Saisa, we pass through the Lower Nile and the outskirts of Memphis, we pass the Beggar’s Quarter - and now you are already in the city’s market square.

3. Ritual of Summoning.

In the market square you will find Imhotep, who will tell you that, as always, people were not ready to repel the attacks of monsters and drunken Telkhins, and in Egypt things are getting worse and worse. But – you have an important mission ahead (not again, but again)!
Then Imhotep will take the scroll from us, sing you another portion of praises and so unobtrusively ask for a couple more artifacts for the ritual: the Eye of Chaos, which is located somewhere near the Fayum Oasis, and the Hand of Balance, which is located somewhere in Giza.
There is nothing to do, we need to save humanity, so we go to Giza (fortunately, it is closer than Fayum).
Exit the eastern gate of the city and stomp along a couple of locations in a straight line, clearing everything in your path. Once you find a tomb in the Great Sphinx, go down there. Having wandered around the tomb and earned a decent amount of experience, at the end opposite from the entrance we come across a door. A difficult battle awaits us behind it...

4. Defeat the Pharaoh's honor guard.

We go in, quickly kill the small creatures and mechanisms, and then begin the battle with the guards. It is advisable to fight with each one in turn, it will be easier. Having defeated the four guards, we go to the next door, open it and go into the room. We take the Hand of Balance from the pedestal and head for the Eye of Chaos. It should be noted that the guards come to life due to the spirits flying out of the mechanism. Thus, it is necessary to destroy the mechanisms sequentially.
There are two ways to get to the Fayum Oasis.
The first is from Giz, through the Fayum Pass into the Fayum Desert and on the way to the Temple of Atum.
The second - from the Crafts Quarter, through the Desert, and through the Canyon of Isis, you exit into the Fayum Desert, and then the Temple of Atum awaits you.
Again, you can come there one way and leave another. It's up to you and your pocket guide to decide.
So, beyond the Fayum Desert you will need to find the Temple of Atum, after which, having climbed the bridge, you will find yourself in front of a barred door.

5. Defeat Nekhebtau.

Entering the gate, you will encounter Nekhebtau, who turns out to be a huge scorpion. If you have a small supply of health potions or a large slipper with you, then when you fight a monster, you will undoubtedly win.

6. Get the Eye of Chaos.

Approaching the pedestal, you need to take the precious Eye from it, after which you can safely open the chests and go to Memphis to see Imhotep.
As a reward you will receive a piece of the amulet and 2 stat points.

7. Ritual of Summoning.

After you give Imhotep the relics and receive his well-deserved reward, he will immediately begin the Ritual. But alas, the ritual will end in failure, the Gods will simply ignore our call, and the Rod of Eternity will be destroyed. Imhotep will tell you that he has become convinced of his most pessimistic guesses - the connection with the Gods has been lost, subscribers are outside the network coverage area, everyone’s mobile phones are dead and cannot be recharged! Apparently, the Gods do not care about Greece and Egypt. In general, everything is terrible (what were you waiting for? A happy ending? Well, no, this is not a Hollywood melodrama)! And you, as a brave hero, will again have to save the situation with the help of a lot of physical exercise. In general, we’re going to kill everyone again, and the only joy is that there will be less cellulite...

8. Telkhin in Egypt.

Imhotep will tell you that Telkhin is destroying Temples throughout Egypt, which are guarded by the servants of the Order of Prometheus, and only the tomb of Ramses in the Valley of the Kings near Thebes remains untouched. You need to find her and kill Telkhin the Vandal.
Without any adventures, you will reach Thebes and end up in the Valley. Along the way, as usual, it will be necessary to clear the territory and listen to terrible tales that Telkhin was here just now, and that only a madman can come into the Valley, i.e. You!
Leaving Thebes, you will pass through the Mountain Pass to the Place of Truth, and from there - straight to the Valley of the Kings, dotted along and across with the inscriptions “Telkhin was here”. There we will be met by the last portal and the last merchant in Egypt.
And now, in the northwest, very close to the merchant, is the tomb of Ramses - the last sanctuary guarded by the servants of the Order of Prometheus in Egypt.
Having gone down into the tomb and put the local monsters to rest, you will eventually find yourself in front of a closed door - Telkhin of Egypt is calmly waiting for us behind it. Having stocked up on potions, go and guide him on the right path.
After his death, Telkhin will leave you on the floor not only valuables and gold, but also a Tablet, which we should immediately take to Imhotep in Thebes. When you meet, Imhotep will thank you generously and give you the Rod of Eternity.
Reward: 2 skill points + experience.

SICKLE CROWN.

1. Go to Babylon.

Imhotep will tell you that Telkhin is currently besieging Babylon, and, judging by what is written in the Tablet we brought, the scoundrel is looking for the Crohn's Sickle, which used to belong to the Titans. With its help you can even kill a god (and then, say, pose for the statue “Worker and Collective Farm Woman”)! You need to immediately go to the Temple of Hatshepsut and, using the Rod of Eternity, open a portal to Babylon.
In the Temple of Hatshepsut, in the Hall of Prometheus, you need to kill the main guard, after which the last door in the temple opens in front of you. And here in front of you is the altar of Eternity. We click on it with the mouse - the portal to Babylon is open, and you go to the next act.

ACT 3. EAST.

2. Find and protect Crohn's Sickle.

Once in Babylon, approach Zakir from the Order of Prometheus, who will note with surprise that he did not believe in stories about the portal before (he thought that the grass was just good). And then he will tell you that you need to hurry before Telkhin penetrates the sacred chambers in the temple of Marduk. He managed to penetrate into the temple itself; the glorious soldiers of the order were no obstacle to him...
Go to the top, to the Temple of Marduk.
We go down to the first level of the temple, clear it of monsters, earning exp, and do the same with the second and third levels. Going down to the fourth level of the temple (it is very small), defeat the Chimera there. Behind the door you will come to Feyyan lying near the column, which you remember from Greece.
Yes, the girl, despite all her ambition, was never able to kill Telkhin, and he stole the Sickle, the little scoundrel! So now you have a difficult path ahead, you need to find the evil Telkhin and initiate him into the intricacies of the Criminal Code, the article for theft...
Reward: experience + essence + last third backpack!

IN SEARCH OF TELKHIN.

1. Hunt down Telkhin with Crohn's Sickle.

Farmer Appa on the outskirts of Babylon will tell you that Telkhin actually passed here recently and headed towards the Silk Road.
On the Silk Road you will meet Minani, who will say that you are going the right way, comrades, Telkhin headed further.
At Tsongo Peak you will meet the elder Sang-Gie Dore, who will give you valuable instructions on where to go (as if there were other paths). According to him, in order to catch Telkhin, you need to go through the Ice Caves.
Having passed through them, we again meet the old man, who shows us the further path. According to him, Telkhin walked through the mountains to the Great Wall of China, and you are about to catch up with him, so you really need to watch out for him!
Hehe, that was not the case - after passing the Great Wall of China and arriving in the village of Zhidan, you will learn from Fan Ye that Telkhin just recently (oh, a coincidence!) walked through the village and headed towards Chang-An. What this traveler with the sickle forgot in the royal palace is not yet clear, so you need to go there and satisfy, so to speak, your curiosity.
As soon as you enter the outskirts of Chang An, you will meet a woman who will tell you that the emperor's terracotta warriors have come to life and are attacking civilians, spreading fear and destruction throughout the city. And the main thing is that you central square some young woman is waiting (which is good news...)
Clearing everything in your path, go to the city - there you will see Feyan, who has miraculously recovered.
She will tell you about the suspicions of Eastern scientists: they think that Telkhin wants to free Titan, the only one who was not expelled to Tartarus, but was imprisoned here on earth. Only the Yellow Emperor, who lives in the Jade Hall, knows where to look for the place of his imprisonment.
Well, go in search of the Jade Hall (that is, to hell with you, to put it simply). After passing through the village of Bingsan and climbing Mount Chi Yun, you will need to defeat the Ox. Having gutted the chests, as usual, you can safely move on.
And here it is - the Jade Hall, in which the Yellow Emperor sits.
He will tell you that the gods imprisoned one of the Titans, namely the most evil and insidious (it can’t be, what a coincidence!!) named Typhon, under Mount Vusao. And now Telkhin goes to free him (everyone is afraid!). You need to be the first to reach the mountain and prevent the evil Telkhin from digging the Titan out from under the mountain.
Reward: experience + green item.
Take the emperor's hint and go back through the underground passage to the swamps, and further to Chang-An.
After reaching the city through the swamps, go to Feiyan and talk to her. She will tell you that one of the city gates leads to the Forest of the Ancestors, and behind this forest stands Mount Vusao.
Set out on a journey towards danger.
Leaving through the gate located in the east of the city, you will find yourself in the Forest of the Ancestors. You will have to wave your weapon a lot - the forest is literally teeming with enemies. However, this is more of a plus than a minus.
Coming out of the forest, you will find yourself in the Vusao Wasteland. Climbing the path along the mountainside, you will find yourself on a mountain plateau, on which there is a portal and a tunnel (ha ha!) to Titan. After fighting with extremely boring skeletons, you will achieve one of the goals - the entrance to the cave.
After passing through a couple of caves, you will find yourself in a drop-dead beautiful interior (this is where your camera will come in handy) - everything is so empty, and only the road winds (the cave must have been cleared out before us)...
That's where you need to go. Along this very road - and forward, forward, forward, into a bright future...
Once in the Obsidian Caves, you won’t see anyone - draconians, and balrogs (those, you know, big and horned) and a bunch of Diablo-like charmers, and elves (hello, Uncle Tolkien!), and other skeletons: swing - I don’t want to. The diversity of the cave's inhabitants will be a pleasant prelude to the main battle in this location.
After clearing the area, you will again find yourself on the road in the void. And from this very road you will see that Telkhin, armed with the Sickle of Cronus, cuts the shackles of Typhon. Alas, you won’t be able to do anything - you can’t move faster, and the quest won’t allow it. Typhon will solemnly retire to the portal to Olympus amid applause, and all you have to do is kill Telkhin to clear the way to the portal. You'll have to tinker a little with Telkhin, but you can twist him into a ram's horn. After his death, he (i.e. Telkhin, not the ram’s horn) will leave a bunch of nice goodies especially for you.
Having collected everything you need and stocked up on health, you can go into the portal after Typhon. The destination of your journey is Mount Olympus. Unfortunately (or fortunately), you will not meet any of the gods (subscribers are unavailable, remember?). But you will meet a large number of other local residents (who, however, resemble the aborigines in the same way as ballerinas resemble rockers... But that’s not the point).
The main danger to you are cyclops (one-eyed snipers, definitely), of which at least a dozen live on Olympus. They will become the last barrier before Typhon.
Typhon is an extremely unpleasant opponent. Even evasiveness does not always help in the fight against him - he constantly attacks with magic, and periodically drains life and energy.
But your victory over him is the key to the existence and prosperity of the whole world, so go for it! After defeating the main adversary, if you enjoyed chasing the Telkhins around the globe, you will be able to repeat this fascinating epic at a higher difficulty level. There are Typhons of Typhonists and Cyclops of Cyclopistes... Good luck! ;-)
