Welcome to [b]The World of Bistun[/b] – a short presentation of main pillars of our game. It will focus on three main groups: art, story and music. Let's start with the art, and its first topic: enemies. Taking into consideration that [b]The Tale of Bistun[/b] is an action-adventure game, you can expect to face many diverse opponents on your way. To make your task a bit easier, we have decided to introduce different kinds of enemies that you may fight. There are 6 types of enemies: [b]Ghoulche[/b], [b]Parry[/b], [b]Deevche[/b], [b]Gariban Var[/b], [b]Velgard[/b], and [b]Guardian Deev[/b] [b]Ghoulches[/b] mostly attack in numbers, they try to surround the player and then perform an attack. They are inspired by [b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jinn]Jinns[/url][/b] and are in a way equivalent of [b]Goblins[/b] in the western culture.

They assault with their sticks and follow the character faster than other enemies. In Persian mythology and folklore, there are a lot of [b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Div_(mythology)]Deevs[/url][/b]. Almost all of them are demonic, they resemble different kinds of wrongdoings. They have hooves, horns, and rock-tough bodies. They are kind of [b]Demons[/b] equivalent in the western mythology.

They try to avoid direct contact and cast magical homing orbs from the distance. Just like [b]Deevs[/b], [b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peri]Parries[/url][/b] are another sort of mythical creatures. They are mostly described as female spirits, that seduce men and kill or harm them. There are also beliefs that watching or listening to [b]Parries[/b] will cause insanity and losing mind control. You can compare them to [b]Witches[/b] in western mythology.

They’re invincible, as long as their shield is not broken. They have two assault variations, point attack and spear swing. [b]Garibanvar[/b] is the name of a special unit in the [b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_the_Sasanian_Empire]Sassanid army[/url][/b]. They have real historical references.

However, once our character reaches them, they will resort to melee attacks with use of a dagger. They are resembling people that mocked and laughed at [b]Farhad[/b] in Persian stories. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40733687/4ec053c635f3ee4b97421b15aabed784816bdc2b.jpg[/img] [b]Guardian Deevs[/b] are rare variants of deevs that are huge, slow, and extremely powerful. They attack with their mighty club. They can also slam the character with their feet. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40733687/2d438c304db4229afde1719bc8cbbe6f380b39ad.jpg[/img] Thank you for your attention!
