Abbey Games has been updating Renowned Explorers frequently since release, and is committed to improve the game every two weeks for at least the rest of 2015. The Mali Mystery is a one-time DLC, granted freely to any existing and future players, containing a whole new expedition and Leaderboards.
The original game allows you to travel to a number of expeditions around the world, which each yield procedurally generated adventures that adapt to your characters. With the Mali Mystery free DLC players get a whole new location to travel to, including new stories, environments, NPCs, and most importantly: treasures! Due to the procedural generation, character-specific stories and added treasures, this results in many hours of extra playtime and an even greater variation of strategies.
Approach the natives consciously when running into a conflict;
- Fight them with Melee, Ranged and Area of Effect attacks,
- win them over using Cheers, Charms and Compliments,
- or scare them away by Insults, Taunts and Humiliation
Every encounter is a new challenge with many solutions and it's up to you to build a reputation. Are you a diplomat, a schemer or a fighter..?
