Pokelike Forever

A creature-collecting roguelike you play right inside World of Warcraft: Forever.

Pick a companion, catch the creatures of Azeroth, build a team and fight your way through nine zones to the final boss. Every run is different, and one lost fight ends it.

No WoW frames, no clutter: a hand-made pixel-art window with real 3D creature models, original creature sounds and a living sky that follows the time of day.

How a run works

• Choose a gen: start with Gen 1, Eastern Kingdoms. Win it once and Gen 2, Kalimdor, plus every gen that comes later is unlocked.
• Choose your companion: each gen has three lore starters, for example a Wildhammer Gryphon Hatchling, a Red Whelpling of Alexstrasza or a Frostwolf Pup. Each one evolves twice.
• Choose your path: every zone is a branching map. Along the way you find:
  • wild creatures in the bushes
  • creature dens where you can recruit
  • duels against adventurers of every WoW class
  • treasure chests
  • quests with secret outcomes
  • a move tutor
  • an inn right before the boss
• Auto battles: your team fights on its own with real models. Team order and held items decide the fight. You can switch to 2x or 4x speed or skip a fight.
• Levels instead of XP: every victory gives fixed levels: bush +1, duel +2, boss +2, rival +4.
• Bosses: eight zone bosses and a finale per gen, from Hogger and VanCleef to Ragnaros, or Onyxia and C'Thun in Kalimdor.
• Rival: he shows up in every second zone and always brings a counter to your starter.

Features

• Type matchups that matter: 10 creature families with strengths and weaknesses (x2 / x0.5). A varied team wins, a lone starter doesn't get far.
• ~135 creatures with evolutions and abilities that improve over three ranks.
• Rare mobs: the real rare spawns of each zone. Sometimes they hide in a bush or a den. Beat one and it can join you.
• 21 held items, among them family talismans, plus consumables and random events.
• Three difficulties (Normal, Heroic, Mythic) and an optional Hardcore mode, in which fainted creatures are lost for good.
• Bestiary, Hall of Fame and achievements that track your progress across all runs.
• Boss trophies in your player tooltip, visible to other addon users.

Guild leaderboard and daily challenge

• Finished runs are shared with your guild automatically.
• Daily challenge: everyone in the guild plays the same seed, with one attempt per day.
• Cheat-proof: every run is replayed and verified by the other players' addons. Tampered results are rejected.
