Black Garden (Alpha 0.1.9b)

Normally I would tell you to get a time machine and travel to the future, where the dev implements the area.

But the game has not updated in 2 years. So the answer is that it will never be gotten rid of.

For tools go to the mines in that damned Goblin village, up the stairs and talk to the Smith. And if you want learn skills wait for Saturday and head straight to the brothel up to the second floor, you will find the an interesting girl (DON'T GET ANY IDEAS, YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED) she sales books on all skills i think 

Another site marked this as abandoned, their patreon hasn't been touched since June 2023. 

I liked the game.

Yes, you have to farm ХP from battles and gathering materials. You can also buy books on Saturdays and Sundays from the NPC, which is located on the second floor of the brothel. These books will unlock a skill or give you ХP for it.

!!! When you level up a given skill, the HP you get from materials and enemies will decrease. Forcing you to go to another more dangerous area. Don't rush for that!!!

I wish you a pleasant game and I hope you like the scenes.

I second this, it would make more sense if there was a penalty of some kind for not having the skill, for example you could have a reduced amount of wood after woodcutting, because someone not skilled can probably split a log but they might screw up a few logs on the way.

Thank you! ^ ^

Scene Transitions can be turned OFF in Extra Options (it's an Item in your inventory that pulls up some extra Options that aren't available in the Menu GUI).

You actually start of with a decent bit of money if you sell your starting Potions, Maid Dresses and starting Furniture (except Stove and bed, don't sell those please).

Opening Chests can also give 3-8 Silver per day (assuming you can see and disarm traps) when you sell the contents. There is actually not that many uses for money in game, especially once you get a few hours in.

At the moment it would require too much work, especially if I had to redraw all the Sex Scenes to reflect that. Maybe once I finish the game I could try to work backwards and implement it as an option, but I make no promises since that's probably quite far off in the future.

The game Rolls a 6 sided dice and adds your INT score to it. Having read "Fairy Riddles" adds +2 to the roll.  Having read "Fairy Vaults" adds +3 to the roll.  Having the Meticulous Trait adds +2. 
Your combined score has to be 15 or above to be able to translate it. I'm guessing you had a higher INT score in the previous playthrough. You can try equipping some Aquamarine or Sapphire Amulets and maybe drinking a Raven's Wisdom Potion that increases INT by 2 points for a short while.

Sorry for the late reply.

You can buy the Agriculture Skill from a Succubus on the second floor of the Goblin Brothel on Saturdays. You can also very rarely find it in Chests as a Book. Another way is to Enslave the Student NPC and donate him to a Goblin Household, then he will teach it to you for a price.

To Break the Curse:

1) Capture a Student NPC (you have to use Invisibility Potion first and hit him over the head while carrying a Rope in your Inventory. Then bring him to Saffron.

OR

2)Find a Priest NPC and buy a Remove Curse Scroll from him.

These NPCs have a ~30% chance to spawn once a day per map in a random location, though they are more likely to spawn near roads. They wont spawn at Night and if you leave the map they despawn.

The spell combo mechanic was mostly inspired by some Final Fantasy games, the order for each given spell is the same so after a few tries it's not too hard to learn the order, since they are pretty short.

The fight in the game are designed for combat classes. Most of the player stats also come from armour, weapons and accessories. Once sufficiently geared most of these fights become extremely easy. With a decent set of armour and a score of 5+ in INT stat, a magic user can defeat 2-4 Werewolves before needing to restore health.

There is a way to cheat XP in game for those that find progression too slow. You can use the cheat sheet to get infinite money and then buy infinite Skill tomes from a Succubus in the Brothel on Saturday to get infinite XP. I initially didn't even have Hero mode as I set XP accumulation rate based on personal preference. Most people found it too slow so I introduced Hero mode... which some people find too slow as well. At the end I just added the Cheat Sheet so people can use it to get however much money they want and in effect as much XP as they want. This way the player can just set their own reward/progression because it's the only way I know to just appeal to everyone.

As for Player Leveling. Player level in this game is his Rank in the Demon Queen's army, it will go up to a maximum of 5 (currently planned) based on main story progression. The first Rank Up quest is being worked on now for the next big update!

The easiest way is to either craft or find some Garnet Amulets (the ones with red stones as cores) those each give +1 and you can equip 4 of them. Or you can craft or find Ruby Amulets, they give +2 and you can also equip 4 of them. Ruby ones are much harder to get as the materials for them are found in Werewolf Caves.

Also, you should try to get the actual fighting skills as well, they do significantly more damage than normal attacks.

The Thunder crystal can form when the Lightning Strikes the road, but it is not guaranteed so it's kind of random and rare and you can't influence it.

You can get one from defeating a Mimic with a 25% drop rate, this method is most reliable.

Silver Chest will be added in the next release, it doesn't exist yet.

That's strange, I tried it just now and I got the download window popup as well as the "than you" window. Are you only having this issue with my game or with other games on this site too?
