Finally, I sat down to play and leveled up to level 8. It's quite interesting; I initially went straight from the city into a spider-infested well, cleared it out, and then received a quest to kill a Naga on the lighthouse. The Nagas there are like the Kensei from Heroes 6, and there are also Coral Priests from the same game. I made good progress, but on the 3rd level of the lighthouse, I was attacked by 4 Nagas at once, including 2 experienced ones, and I couldn't get through. I went back and cleared out some wolves and spiders on the map, as well as a bandit hideout. There were also 2 caves there, but one had a Cyclops, and the other had a dragon – they almost killed me instantly. There were also strong spirits at the graveyard, which killed me in 3 hits. I returned to the lighthouse, killed the Kensei, and climbed to the roof to fight the boss – it's Mamushi, the main Kensei. The trick is that he can knock you back and push you off the roof, so you have to run around and not stand on the edge. It took me 4 tries, but I killed him and unlocked the quest to go to the Castle, where I saved the game at the door. As for the combat system, it's great; there are different combinations for killing monsters, and you can develop tactics. For example: slow them down with magic, shoot them with a bow, when they get close, the defender takes the aggro, plus lower their armor with magic, and then kill them. But in this game, you can't run away; if you aggro the monsters, you have to fight to the death. There are also legendary items (relics) that have experience like characters, and it grows. I found one in a cave with a puzzle.
