Tibia (video Game) - Gameplay

Gameplay

The gameplay of Tibia involves advancing levels while training to improve skill levels, hunting monsters using weapons and magical spells, gathering treasures, doing quests and exploring the Tibia world. Players interact with each other in character so they can have conversations, trades, and group battles and partake in guilds for more role-playing opportunities. On most of the game's servers, players are also allowed to attack and kill each other, although there is a system in place to keep hostile actions under control called the skull system. Some servers have very limited player versus player combat, while others encourage it by rewarding experience for kills.

When creating a character, over 77 different servers (worlds) which can be chosen to join. While each world is exactly the same in appearance, players cannot communicate cross-server. There are three types of worlds:

• Open PvP: the player can attack and kill anyone but you will get a "skull" for this, which means that anyone can kill you without getting that respective "skull" mark.
• Optional PvP: player-versus-player combat is not permitted except during guild wars (which must be accepted by both sides). No skull system.
• Hardcore PvP: player-versus-player is encouraged, instead of penalties there are rewards.

There is also a "Premium" world where only premium (paying) players can play. It is of the "Open PvP" type.
