Hunted: The Demon’s Forge Guide Blog Update

We’re just one day from the North American release of inXile Entertainment’s dungeon crawler, and this blog post from the official game guide writer Michael Searle may serve as an interesting appetizer if you’re interested in the title.

Knowledge is power, and the official guide gives you the knowledge to overpower all your enemies. The guide’s Bestiary section lists every foe in the game, including each chapter’s boss. We’ve painstakingly detailed each enemy’s resistances and vulnerabilities, as well as where you first encounter it, the creature’s abilities, description, and combat tips. Plus, we’ve included a handy chart that matches each monster with specific Battle/Weapon Magic attacks and immediately shows you whether a creature is immune or vulnerable to the attack. At a glance, you can calculate the best magic to fell a creature, without having to waste precious mana experimenting with attacks that may only inflict negligible damage (or bounce off completely).

Alas, the Wargar are not your only concern. Once you’ve mastered strategies against the game’s most prevalent creature type, you still have to deal with Crawlers, Archghouls, Blind Dragons, Dreads, Eyes of Annuvin, Harridans, Minotaurs, Skeletons, and Hunted’s tougher bosses. How do you defeat a charging Minotaur Juggernaut, crack mounds of Skeleton bones, or slay the rapidly teleporting Harridan? We’ll show you.
