Our take on Zahalia
Players expecting broad, uninterrupted exploration may hit a wall when the world is divided into individual rooms. Those who do not enjoy searching for secrets may also lose interest, since most rooms and areas on the overworld contain discoveries to find.
What is Zahalia?
Zahalia is a top-down adventure set in a land where a Dark Wizard has taken the crystals.
Travel through the overworld, fight the wizard’s monsters, and reclaim the crystals to save Zahalia. Each screen is a room, and most rooms contain secrets. Explore the map and search for hidden caves. New abilities open access to more of the land, while swords, shields, and armor can be bought from a local merchant. Secrets also appear across the overworld, alongside the combat and ability-based progression.
