Adventures are live turn-based multiplayer battles played on an isometric map.
Before diving into your first match, here is a quick summary: adventures are organized into a series of rounds.
Each round, every player has the opportunity to use abilities to move, heal, shoot, or block their opponents.
Abilities consume one of your two stamina points, limiting how many you can perform in one round.
To join the queue, simply choose a map from the dropdown menu on the starting screen and click Join Queue.
When enough suitable opponents have been found, you will be automatically placed into a lobby and alerted via a browser notification.
When grouping players into lobbies, each player has a matchmaking ranking calculated for them.
If there are enough players in the queue, those with dissimilar matchmaking rankings will not be placed in the same lobby.
Currently, matchmaking rankings correspond exactly to your player level.
In other words, winning or losing a match does not affect your matchmaking ranking.
The Lobby
The lobby screen shows both teams and allows you to prepare for the match.
If you are not equipped with a fort gun, a "no weapon" indicator is placed beside your username.
At the top of the window, you will see three empty boxes labelled "Your abilities".
Clicking any of these boxes allows you to select an ability to use in the match.
After opening the dropdown menu, hover your mouse over each row to see a detailed description of the ability.
If you have joined a custom game, remember to click the "I’m Ready" button in the lower right corner; in matchmaking games, an auto-start countdown timer controls the commencement of the match.
Note: If any player leaves a matchmaking lobby, it will be automatically closed and all players returned to the starting screen.
