Life in Adventure is a simplified text-based RPG on Android. You've got a portrait, hit-points, sanity, 6 stats. You've got gold, a small inventory, also one armor and one weapon slot which add to your "combat power".

There are 100+ pre-written encounters, often with a unique picture. You're given a few choices at each step, with success percentages listed when they depend on stats. Often you'll get a choice to begin combat, or run away. At the start of combat, you get an estimated chance of victory, and a choice to roll the 20-sided die to modify that chance. Combat is not interactive, you pit your combat power against the enemy power until one side is defeated. Defeat means a loss of health and sanity, when you run out it is "Like Every Other Death".

There are "gems" for monetization and as a reward for discovering new items and monsters. Number of things to discover:

  • 131 Epilogues
  • 160 Monsters
  • 257 Items
  • 33 Achievements
