David and the magical jewel Once upon a time, in a faraway kingdom, there lived a young boy named David. He was an ordinary boy with big dreams and an adventurous spirit. One day, while exploring the enchanted forest near his village, David stumbled upon a hidden cave. Inside the cave, he discovered a mysterious jewel, glowing with a brilliant, otherworldly light. Unbeknownst to David, this jewel held remarkable powers. Legend had it that it granted one wish to whoever possessed it.

Legend had it that it granted one wish to whoever possessed it. Excited by the possibilities, David grasped the jewel tightly in his hand and made a wish. With a blinding flash of light, his wish was granted, and he found himself transported to a world of magic and wonder.

Shadow Gambit The Cursed Crew Gold Skellys Guide

Welcome to our Shadow Gambit The Cursed Crew Gold Skellys Guide. This guide will show you detailed information about Gold Skellys in game!

Afia

The first golden skeleton is in Afia’s “Blink” tutorial. After you teleport past the first set of guards and climb the vines, teleport under the bow of the floating ship and blink again through the cracks of the boards.

Toya

In the “Shadow Step” tutorial, progress until you’ve past through the torii. Move Toya close enough to toss down the talisman and teleport to it.

Suleidy

At the very end of the “Wander Dust” tutorial, you’ll see a floating platform the skeleton on it. I killed it before I started taking screenshots for this guide, but it’s about where I threw the cover seeds. You’ll need to hit the skeleton with the dust, run over to the canon, and shoot it.

Teresa

In Teresa’s “Iron Judgment” tutorial, clear to the end. Click on the floating platform around the side of the tower to make her move, then snipe the skeleton from your better vantage point.

John

After killing the first enemy in the “The Below” tutorial, move John near the wall and anchor down.

Swivel the camera around to see a hidden platform and kill the skeleton (skelly not pictured bc I already got em)

Quentin

In Quentin’s Challenge Room, clear the room with the two big boxes and make a quick save. Maneuver him to the smashed wall as pictured, and throw down your head. The golden skeleton will walk over to it, so quickly reel it up and stab the rotten skelly for being so greedy.

Gaelle (Incomplete)

This is where I have to admit that I am not a pro-gamer who’s 100% the game in 4 days. Apologies.
I do not know how to kill the next two golden skeletons.
In Gaelle’s Challenge Room, it looks like you’re supposed to use firecrackers to bait the skeleton to a spot where you can rope it up like in Quentin’s room, but the skeleton just looks blankly at the explosion. If you figure this one out, tell people in the comments. I’m too lazy to update a guide I’ve already published.

Pinkus

This is the other one I haven’t killed. In Pinkus’ “Coin” tutorial, the skeleton is on a small, floating platform that appears to be impossible to reach. If the guards you posses were able to shoot, it would be simple, but for now, I don’t know how it would be possible to kill this one.

Dead🔥Cells is a frantic and fast-paced action platformer with Roguelike elements. Having possessed a recently-beheaded corpse, you'll be making your way through a variety of locales taking down hordes of enemies until you yourself are slain. only to return again from death. Unlike games such as Binding of Isaac or Nuclear Throne where no permanent progress is made aside from unlocks or self-knowledge, Dead🔥Cells features persistent upgrades in the form of new equipment and movement upgrades a la Rogue Legacy. The movement upgrades in particular tie-in with another unique feature of the game: metroidvania elements. As you progress further and further you'll be able to access new parts of earlier levels, such as through creating and climbing vines. All this in addition to fact-paced but simple combat (you have up to two weapons and skills while enemies have one or two attacks but are varied) and some absolutely gorgeous pixel art and you have a fantastic game.

Or half-of-a-game, I should say. Dead🔥Cells is currently in Early Access and will likely be so for a while, but it's one of the few to actually get Early Access right. In terms of gameplay polish the game already feels near-complete, and there is already a significant amount of content with the developers intending to roughly double that amount by the time of full-release. It reminds me a lot of Darkest Dungeon in that way. So if the gameplay interests you I recommend taking the plunge; I've been enjoying it quite a bit already.

If I can survive more than three hits, and upgrade forever, then I wouldn't mind going cold turkey on Rogue Legacy for this.

You're definitely expected to avoid most things but you can take a good amount of punishment before dying. At least early on you can take around 5-ish attacks and you have one healing flask per area, as well as a full heal and recharge of that healing flask inbetween areas. Once you unlock gear you can also upgrade them a bunch to boost their effectiveness.

Is there a regular whip in the game? All i keep getting are lightning whips that gives me double damage to myself if i get hit.

The only whip I've come across so far is the lightning whip, but if you notice each time you find one they'll have different characteristics. Like one may do double damage to enemies/yourself, and another may do bonus damage to enemies that are on fire.

Also, really enjoying this so far. Definitely reminds me a lot of Rogue Legacy.

Lightning whip is the only one I've seen so far but the extra damage thing is a random trait, you've just had weird luck.

Genuinely thought that was the game title and rolled my eyes.

you can piano roll>attack with the rapier.

edit: I'm also a big fan of the progression; as long as you can make it through the first area, you're always getting a little bit stronger. A run never feels like a waste because I've always dumped a few cells into something.

regular whips do exist, just keep at it and you'll find the recipe eventually

The regular whip doesn't home in on secrets or enemies, I don't think; I'm not sure it's actually better than the electric whip.

also, if you find a golden door but can't/don't want to pay the cost to open it, you can beat on it for a while and it'll open up; you'll get cursed and will die in one hit until you kill ten enemies. Might be worth it, depending on what's behind the door or how close you are to cashing in your cells.

Can Confirm, Game is disgustingly good. Also on sale until the 17th of May

I believe that this scales. I broke a door where I had to pay 3000 and it cursed me so I had to kill *40* enemies.

So far it seems going through the Sewer is better than Ossuary? At least the 2x I've been in the Ossuary, it dumps me out in the Ramparts which gets MUCH less poo poo than The Old Sewer. Is there supposed to be another exit out of the Ossuary that's just not put in?

E: Also I swear the timer and timed-doors are hosed up. The time they say it locked is basically like 1 minute after I spawned in. I don't see how anyone could get those unless they get lucky, beeline straight to the next level and hopefully beeline straight to the door if you can find it. Is there anything good behind them anyways? Seems like you'll lose much more out of missing 2-4 upgrades + blueprints + weapons+ skills a level

I've had the same experiences. I've raced to them to try and get there but haven't made it to one yet. I'd like to hear if anyone has.

Notice I have 45 seconds left. So that's about 3:30 minutes from when you start a run.

Not even a blueprint! The total gold for this room was 1520 gold. It is different each time; and it usually isn't the first 'underground' passage. There's almost always some spike traps or flails separating it.

Game still looks hella cool though, gotta admit. What's this about a timer though?

Your Computer posted:

An early access game describing itself as "RogueVania" and "Souls-lite" wowza.

Oh its nothing major. A treasure room on each of the second stages (out of 12 or so)
Pausing the game or going into the upgrade hub between stages pauses the timer; it doesn't seem to have any other impact on the gameplay beyond the treasure rooms as well.
Game is good!

Current last boss lags me a lot but disabling vsync cuts it to just a few moments of weird fps issues. Haven't had other issues

Final unlock took an hour and just when I gave up and just went for a run to get more gold I made it

Also they need to add more tiny HP enemies but swarms of them. Dropping into a room with a shitton of bats and just exploding/bleeding all of them is hilarious.

Also do not stand directly underneath elevators if you are calling them down.

GUYS STOP posted:

I found a blueprint for the Assassin's Blade directly above the starting point in Promenade of the Condemned. It seems like this always spawns there. Are there any more guaranteed hidden blueprint spots?

Also do not stand directly underneath elevators if you are calling them down.

e: Important, so I don't forget: there's a Bloodborne-esque regain/rally mechanic that lets you get back what seems to be all of your health if you hit an enemy enough, quick enough after getting hurt.

Jeesis posted:

I do not know if I can use anything but the rapier, though honestly the bow hosed up poo poo more often due to the piercing. Too bad I wasted all my health potions due to getting hit by multiple bat bombs.

Whoa, I've never played Bloodborne but I thought something quirky was happening with my health during combat. Hadn't quite put it together but that sounds right, nice.

Reviews for "David's Unbreakable Bond with the Magical Jewel: A Tale of Connection"

1. **Sarah - 2/5** - I was really disappointed with "David and the magical jewel". The story had so much potential, but it fell flat for me. The character development was weak, and I struggled to connect with any of the characters. The plot felt predictable, and I found myself losing interest halfway through. The writing style also felt monotonous and lacked creativity. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this book as it just didn't live up to the hype.

2. **Mark - 1/5** - I regret wasting my time reading "David and the magical jewel". The plot was confusing and poorly constructed. The pacing was off, and I found the dialogues to be unrealistic and forced. The worldbuilding was minimal, leaving me with so many unanswered questions. Additionally, the book was riddled with grammatical errors and typos, making it difficult to immerse myself in the story. I would advise readers to steer clear of this book and find something more engaging.

3. **Emily - 2/5** - "David and the magical jewel" had an interesting concept and potential for a great adventure, but it fell flat for me. The writing style was mediocre, and the dialogue felt forced and unnatural. The characters lacked depth and were forgettable. The pacing was inconsistent, with some parts dragging on for too long while others felt rushed and underdeveloped. I was expecting a captivating story, but unfortunately, it left me feeling bored and unsatisfied. I'd recommend looking for other fantasy novels as there are far better options available.
