When you don't return to town after completing a level, you will sometimes camp out where you can do cooking. Cooking with the various ingredients will increase HP, attack, and defense for the next level. Depending on what class you play, each has his or her own food preference that will give better stat boosts. Cooking will also add to the total score, so cook fast!
After the tutorial levels, you go to camp after completing Ghost Ship Cove, Old Capital or Ancient Temple Ruins and continuing with your chain run.
Ghost Ship Cove --> camp --> Bilbaron Subterranean Fortress --> Castle of the Dead: Catacombs --> Ancient Temple Ruins --> camp --> Wallace's Underground Labyrinth --> Forgotten Sanctuary --> Old Capital --> camp --> Mage's Tower --> Lost Woods --> Ghost Ship Cove
Cooking mechanics[]
You can either fry or boil your food. Select an ingredient with the cursor and place it in either a frying pan or a boiling pot. Once the ingredient is placed and gets slightly cooked, two options will appear as circles about the food: mix or take out. Mixing cooks the food faster, while taking out the food makes your cursor become a ladle to serve the food. Mixing the food also gives you 100 points each time.
The ingredients vary depending on which stages are played and which path is taken. In the Labyrinth of Chaos none of the special ingredients are available. Depending on the ingredients is the amount of extra HP, Attack or Defense that the player gets per dish.
To improve the quality of the dishes, you can add seasoning with three different ingredients:
- Salt
- Wine
- Garlic (Ghost Ship Cove) / Spices (Ancient Temple Ruins) / Pepper (Old Capital).
By adding seasoning, the dish quality increases, adding more benefits to HP, Attack and Defense. The added effect stacks with all three seasonings, but it is not cumulative more than once. Adding any of these seasonings will give you 50 points each time you add one of them.
