Slurkum is a fantasy themed survival game designed to provide a unique experience. Explore a map of vast proportions with many points of interest, filled with a plethora of various monsters based on AD&D lore. Towns, villages, ancient ruins and unholy places strewn across the map in various realms.

Develop your skills and reputation at a casual pace, claim land as your own for your housing, speak with townspeople for quests and goods to trade.
Resources are plentiful through mining, hunting, monsters, and crafting throughout the land, and each region has it's own unique points of interest and monsters. Housing can be used with a land claim, factions can be joined for Order/Chaos conflict, capture bindstones for faction teleport networks.

Game server environment is loosely based on key elements of popular mmo and simplified for a more casual gaming experience in that genre. Using a purely authoritative server architecture, Slurkum is made with the admin / host in mind, as well. With the built-in Game Master menu, administrators can designate trusted players as GM's for events, disputes, and more!

As with any situation, awareness is key. With that said, keep these points in mind as you explore Slurkum.

Slurkum offers a robust combat system with single, double, even triple melee attacks (sufficient stamina required). Crossbow and pyromancy offer ranged options, with kick and uppercut for when that enemy gets in too close.

• =Combat=
  
• Armor Class: AC reduces the attack rating by scaling the damage:
  (raw damage * scaled percent) / 100
  Example: AC of 15 would weaken an attack to 85%
  
• Stamina Cost: all melee attacks cost stamina
  
• Attack Strength: raw damage is scaled against current stamina:
  actual damage == (raw damage * scaled % of stamina) / 100
  Example: 50% stam reduces attack damage to half, while 100% delivers full
  
• Pugilism: right hook, left hook, uppercut, kick, jabs, rolls, and combos
  
• Great Weapons: more attack range and damage in exchange for high stam cost
  
• Hand Weapons: one handed weapons quick but less damage
  
• Combo Attacks: single click- 1 swing, dble click- 2 swing combo, pressing 2 concise dble clicks- 3 swing attack, kick key and also a special melee key (all dependent on stamina supply)

As stated earlier, simplified functionality is intended and crafting is no exception. For most items, crafting will be a two part process where you refine ingredients or resources using a station, then combine them with your crafting menu.

The struggle between Order and Chaos has been with us since the dawn of time. It permeates all eras, all dimensions, all cultures. Those devout in principal may choose to enlist their service for the cause by joining the townstone of that faction. You will know your enemy by their orange hue.
Even as these forces of Order and Chaos dance in eternal duality, so too does the wheel of karma. Attacking players who are not your enemy will cause loss of karma. The taking of innocent life will also mark your player as a murderer for all to know. Karma does regenerate slowly, and murder counts do erase themselves, with enough passage of time and good behavior.
