OMFG: The Fate of Mortals

Game premise and mechanics

OMFG: The Fate of Mortals is an Oriental martial fantasy game set in high antiquity where you play as an ordinary physician. You must navigate a dangerous wilderness, encountering various beasts as you try to survive. The game's mechanics revolve around consuming herbs and brewing elixirs that dictate the martial art form you can use in combat. These elixirs are temporary, and your abilities will change based on what you consume during each run.

Combat and elixirs

Combat in the game relies on the elixirs you brew and consume. For instance, swallowing a sword elixir allows you to fight as a swordsman, while a staff elixir grants you the abilities of a staff fighter. The combat is dynamic; you do not accumulate skills permanently, as the martial arts you can utilize depend solely on the elixirs you take before entering battle. This mechanic emphasizes strategic planning based on what you gather at the village.
