Combat
Every afternoon, monsters will attack your kingdom and all of them must be defeated to progress to the next day. Once it becomes night, the monster will become enraged.
Hit heroes will lose health points until they reach zero, at which point they become Downed. Downed heroes can be revived using the Tavern or the Graveyard. Heroes revived using the Tavern do not receive XP from food consumed during night.
Currently, the only way to lose combat is for your Guardian to become downed. Even if all other heroes remain standing, the Guardian being downed will automatically end the game.
