Your characters initially start out very weak and gain experience, mostly through fighting, which in turn lets them to gain levels. As the members of your party gain levels, you look for harder quests to undertake. Realmz is a turn-based game, which means that nothing will happen if you leave for a few minutes or days. One of the best things about Realmz is its expandability. The shareware version of Realmz includes one scenario.
Some scenarios require small additional registration fees of their own. while others are free.
When starting a new scenario, its difficulty is given by a number representing the totals of the levels of your entire party. For example, a scenario of difficulty level 30 would recommend six level five adventurers, or three level 10, or one level 30, although it is usually recommended that you have six members in your party due to the different advantages which each one brings. The built-in scenario has a difficulty level of six, and some scenarios have difficulty levels of over 100. Once you finish one scenario, you can take some or all of your adventurers with you to the next one. This can be annoying if you have built up a party that you really like, but it has become too strong to be fun.
