Dragonfall: Ashen Curse

A terminal-based RPG game built with Python featuring turn-based combat, quests, inventory management, merchants, leveling, save/load functionality, and a final boss battle.

About the Game

Dragonfall: Ashen Curse is a text-based RPG built using Python and Object-Oriented Programming principles. The player fights enemies, completes quests, earns gold and experience, purchases equipment, manages an inventory, and prepares to defeat the Ancient Dragon.

The project was created to practice OOP concepts while building a complete RPG game from scratch.

Story

In the land of Eldoria, peace was shattered when the Ancient Dragon awakened. Its dark curse spread across the kingdom, giving birth to the Dark Mage, who mastered forbidden magic and raised an army of Skeletons.

Meanwhile, Goblins emerged from the ruined forests, serving anyone powerful enough to ensure their survival.

As the last remaining hero, your mission is to defeat every threat standing between you and the Ancient Dragon to restore peace to Eldoria.
