GOTHIKA ONLINE 2D

The classic gothic MMO, reforged.

A ground-up rebuild of the original 2D Gothika Online. It begins in one town, Blackwood Crossing, above a Labyrinth a hundred floors deep, and the world grows outward from there, region by region, with every update.

Where it stands

One town, and everything beneath it.

Testing starts with Blackwood Crossing and the Labyrinth under it, the heart of the game. The rest of the continent, thirteen regions from the frozen north to the volcanic south, opens in updates. Every system is built to grow with it.

Endless descent

The Labyrinth.

A hundred floors beneath the town, and no two runs the same. Every floor is generated when you enter it, with its corridors, chambers, traps, secret rooms and the stairs down, so the map you learned yesterday is gone today.

◈

Yours, or your party's

Every party gets its own instance of a floor. You have three lives on each one; spend them and the bell calls you home. Named elites wander the deeper halls, and they hit like it.

☠

Gated by raid bosses

Every tenth floor holds a gate boss, sized for a raid rather than a party. Until the server brings it down the first time, nobody goes deeper. After that it guards its floor like any other boss.

↧

Floor 100 is the chase

Progress here is gear, not level. The bottom floors are meant to take full legendary, three-socket equipment, and a long, long time to reach.

Made, not dropped

Crafting is a role.

No gear drops in the Labyrinth. Every blade, robe and ring is made by a player, so the people who make them matter.

⚒

Gather anything

Mining, woodcutting, herbalism, fishing and skinning are open to everyone. Your tool and your skill decide how fast a tree falls and what else you get from it.

✦

Master one, or two

Ten trades, from smithing and tailoring to alchemy and enchanting. You can't master them all: pick your specialties, and the finished goods only a specialist can make are worth something. Enchant your gear up to +10, if you can find a master enchanter.

⚖

The Exchange

A player market that keeps selling while you're away. One 5% tax, offers that last three days, and room for a legendary to fetch what it's worth.

Somewhere to come back to

A life above the fight.

⚔

Three classes, three Orders

Warrior, Ranger and Mage, each with their spells, a talent tree and two summons of their own. A summon never fights alone: it adds to every blow you land, so your skills keep training.

❦

Parties, guilds and friends

Chat, mail, parties that share the floor, and guilds with a hall to grow. There's an arena for when the other side is a person.

⌂

A home of your own

Earn the deed and the cottage is yours, with over seventy pieces of furniture to craft, a garden, an orchard, a quarry and a pond out back.

☾

It is dark, and things are watching

Rain over the town, day turning to night, and creatures that can't see through what you hide behind. Dying costs something, so bank what you want to keep.
