I've contributed my giveaway to the event! Bump so that we can get some more before the event starts! :D

I've registered and sent my 3 cents too! :P
There is something I wanted to ask you for some time and kept forgetting. It's about the brightness in the four corners where the actions are (specifically where the text of the action is, e.g. "Check"/"Go Left"/etc.). They are much darker than the center of the screen. I get that it's a wanted effect, but I find it uncomfortable, because I have to increase my screen's brightness, just to see the actions better. Same goes for the mini-map room squares. If you think you can make those a little brighter, that would be very much appreciated (my eyes would be especially thankful)!

Thanks for the reminder, hadn't spent coins yet. :)

I'm probably going to miss the start of the quest.
Still working on my Bridge of Sighs.
Also bump for starting in 16 minutes.

At the upper part of the chat window you can see several symbols which represent each class, and also a skull which represents dead players - the numbers near those symbols show the amount of players of each class nearby. You can also click on the nickname of a player in chat to view his in-game stats, including current location.

Max Concentration value depends on your current amount of Energy and Health, e.g. with 100/200 Health and 250/500 Energy your max Concentration can be 50%. Meditation option becomes available whenever your current Concentration value is lower than its current maximum value.

Its amazing how fast time flies... 7 months have passed since the last huge dungeon-crawling giveaways adventure - Game of sWords.
The time for new adventures has come!
I would like to invite you - once again - to the world of exciting and kind-of-old-school dungeon-crawling adventures, full of exploration, dangerous monsters, traps and, of course, treasures!
Some of you might have participated in one of the previous games and still remember those fun times, and I'm happy to say that the adventures this time will get even bigger, with more variety in everything: items, monsters, traps, weapons, artifacts, interaction, you name it!
Communicate with other players, trade with them, kill or help them in many different ways - Game of sWords has never had such a level of interaction before.
For those who are not familiar with Game of sWords at all - it is a free browser dungeon-crawling RPG game made with love specially for SteamGifts users by a shameful poor leech (myself) as a gift and my way to give back to this community. Game of sWords will consist of quests which will start periodically (supposedly, in periods between 2 weeks and a month), in each of which you will have to explore huge dungeons while upgrading your hero, fighting monsters, finding new items and treasures and interacting with other players (as said previously).
Here is the topic of the previous Game of sWords.
Here is the topic of the second Game of sWords.
And here is the topic of the first one, which started back in November last year.
Treasures in Game of sWords are SteamGifts giveaways - you find some of them throughout the adventure and, by completing a quest, get access to all giveaways contributed for the event!
By contributing giveaways for Game of sWords events you get sWords Coins which you can spend in sWords Market to get some items and artifacts that will help you improve your progress and thus increase your chances to get access to all contributed giveaways! Moreover, you'll get lots of positive emotions when happy people will find your treasures in the Game :)
Any contributions are highly appreciated (dungeons are great when they are filled with treasures! :) ), but, of course, voluntary - everyone is welcome to play and enjoy the Game and everyone has a chance to win, regardless on whether you will or will not make a contribution. Contributors, naturally, will have higher chances to win, but overall, success will be determined by your strategy, attention and time management. Besides, the winners' limit has always been higher than number of contributors.
Games will last up to 1 week and will finish when certain amount of winners is reached.
You can find something to read, including tips on strategy, information on the basics of the game, and even the story of the kingdom of sWords, in sWords Library.
You can also join the Steam group where I inform followers about my plans and upcoming updates.
The registration and contribution period begins now and will last until the start of the event at 18:00 GMT next Saturday (24th of September)!
This is when you can register for the upcoming quest with a preferrable class (there are 3 of them - each is unique and has its own winners' limit. Keep in mind that you won't be able to change a chosen class later), contribute your giveaway(s) for the event, get your Coins reward and spend it on something useful in the Market to start the adventure confidently :)
The amount of Coins you get as a reward depends on several factors:
You can register for a quest and contribute giveaway(s) here.
You will get your sWords Coins once the giveaway is checked and approved - make sure to read the rules carefully!
You can access the Market once you register for an event.
The previous event had almost a hundred treasures! Can we collect more this time? :)
Just a quick note: I do not enter any of the giveaways provided for the Game of sWords. The Game is made for your fun and enjoyment (not that I don't have a lot of fun during each event myself, but you are the ones who'll get to explore uncharted dungeons :) ).
I would like to thank all the people who supported the project in multiple ways - by providing ideas, giveaways, helping to make tests and pay for hosting services, by making their own amazing sWords events and just by being with me from the start: pitprok (bloodemperor2), CallmeMark, radagast82, Kuzurreesh, Paprion, ercalote, Mikalye, MonoTheKing... everyone who has followed the project and tried to help as much as he/she could - Game of sWords lives and grows thanks to you ;)
