Introduction
A Township Tale is one of the best VR adventure games in today's gaming market. This game offers a tremendous sense of community, but it takes a while to learn its components and play it to your best advantage. That's why we've compiled various tips and tricks to help you start your VR adventure and get the most out of play when you fully understand this game.
What is the Goal of A Township Tale VR Adventure Game?
The main objective of A Township Tale VR game is to work together with friends to make an abandoned town a functional community. Players will discover the local area and learn professions like carpentry, blacksmithing, cooking, mining and more. Although a role-playing game, A Township Tale does not have a specific story or quest structure. As you play and learn something new, you open a new area in your virtual reality world. In the early part of your experience, you will help build the town. As you increase your skills, the game will have a much more expansive scope.
How to Get Started on Your Township Tale VR Adventure
Following these crucial first steps will ensure you get the most out of playing Township Tale VR.
Download the Game
Connect your PICO 4 to the internet. Make sure you have an active PICO account and open the PICO App Store. This should open a window where you can filter by ‘Features, Games, Experiences, and Videos’. Select Games to open the list of games and look for A Township Tale. You can also use the search bar and type in the game.
Choose Your Server
Once you have downloaded the game, you will select a server. Try to choose one with a reasonable ping. For gaming, ping amounts of 50 ms to 100 ms are considered good to average. Amounts below 20 ms are exceptional. Some servers are extremely busy, so consider that when choosing one.
Keep in mind that you don't have to stay with a server forever and can change it if you don't care for its operation. Select a server on the selection panel with the wooden wheel. Grab the orb, hold it to your face and release it. You're on a server.
Shape Your Hero: Character Customization
Your first task involves customizing your hero's visual appearance. Choose characteristics like skin and hair color, body shape, nose, eye style, eyebrows, eyelashes, facial hair, clothing, armbands, jewelry, toolbelt, and more.
Apply a customization by grabbing an item from the board and dropping it onto your character. When you have finished shaping your hero, stand on the teleportation platform to transport into the game. If you want to change customizations, stand on one of the teleporters in the town's Customization House.
Learning the Basics
Pay close attention to this section. Once you get into this VR adventure, it doesn't explain the basics well. These three basics are vital to play throughout your adventure.
Interacting
The first place you'll visit is the Newcomers Spawn. Note that you'll spend your entire time standing while playing. Find an essential item, like flint, on the floor. To grab an item, you'll need to pull a trigger and pull it toward you. Have fun with your items by throwing them, catching or juggling them with other things.
Crafting
Some items, like a stick and flint, can be crafted together to create a new item. If a beam appears between two items you hold in each hand, you can craft them. Most crafting items fall into three categories: handles, tools, weapons, and attachments. Through crafting, you can create unique weapons that will assist you on your journey.
Managing Inventory
Manage your inventory with your belt, which has four inventory slots. The pouch system is a crucial way to manage inventory, and you can do so by putting at least two items in a storage slot. Use items like a backpack to extend your inventory, providing nine extra slots. Place small items on the front or sides of your belt. Medium items go on the side or back, while large items can go on your back or in the backpack. Other places to store items include chests, bookshelves and bags.
Essential Tips for A Thriving VR Adventure Journey
Mastering the Learning Curve
The most important thing is to have patience. You have a lot to learn, making the game go slowly at first.
Enhancing Gameplay with Friends
Immersive player interaction is one of this VR game's best characteristics. Inviting friends to join your quest will help you learn about and progress in this world.
Hoard Every Resource
As this is essentially a survival game, stocking up on every resource you find is a good idea. When you enter the town for the first time, designate areas to store resources so you'll always have a place to drop them. Make good use of shelf space so you don't have a messy home with items scattered all over.
Make the Most of Makeshift Tools
In this game, makeshift tools can work wonders. You don't need to have the correct tool for every task. Always keep a stick, flint and grass on your hero. You'll never know when these items will be helpful and how they will affect your building skills. Remember your crafting skills, as these will go a long way in gameplay.
Getting Your Form Right
Even with gathering multiple items, you must use them. Prepare yourself for physical labor to hone your craft and get ahead in the game.
Conclusion
As VR adventure games go, A Township Tale is one of the most satisfying to play once you get the hang of it. Take your time learning how to play it, and invite friends to play so you can get ahead. Most of all, get a PICO 4 VR headset to begin your unique journey in this fun world.
