2021-12-08
Postknight 2 is an exciting new bite-sized action role-playing game where you play as a Postknight whose job is to embark on dangerous adventures to deliver letters to the various recipients. As a Postknight, you ought to be courageous, showing no fear in the face of adversity which can often be monsters you’ll stumble upon on your quest.
Since your job lets you deliver letters to people who are unable to receive their letters via the normal delivery service, it allows you to meet new and very interesting people along the way. This perk comes with the job and makes it less boring because you can interact with these people, learn about their backgrounds, and even help them deliver items.
Many of these characters are females, and they love gifts, so be sure to gather tons of those because you’ll need them. Probably not in the way you think, but handing out a gift to characters means you’re also getting something in return. This could be in the form of coins or other items that might use your character.
So in this article, we’ll be detailing the game’s interesting beginner’s guide to give you a better understanding of the concepts and gameplay involved in Postknight 2.
Character Customization
After opening the game, you’ll come across the character customization screen to design your character however you want them to be. And there are some pretty cool customization features to choose from, such as hair color, hairstyle, skin color, skin tone, and even uniform. You will also have to pick a birthday for your Postknightship, which can be whatever you want. And lastly, you get to use any name you want. Which sort of gives the game a gatcha feel in a way.
After you’ve customized your character, you will meet Captain Collin, who will oversee your duties and transfers. The game should be easier for players who have played the first game, but if you haven’t, then you should respond to “They’re Postmen?” when asked about your familiarity with Postknights.
You’ll become a Postknight trainee shortly after, and then you’ll be introduced to your instructor named Almond. Almond will take you under his wings for a while to show you the basic Postknight stuff that you need to know.
Understanding the Battle System
In this game, there are two main buttons that you must become accustomed to master the battle system properly allows you to charge towards the opponent by simply tapping on either of them to Charge towards an opponent or Block to protect yourself from an opponent’s incoming attack.
There isn’t much to focus on in terms of the game’s controls with only three battle systems, but they can get complicated or even difficult if you’re not fast enough to tap on them. Other than the Charge and Block/Shield button, which allows you to defend yourself from ranged attacks, there’s a Potion button as well, and the purpose of this button is to heal your character.
There are no forms of strategizing involved in the game, but you would have to be quick and timely in tapping either the Charge or Shield button to avoid being put down by enemy attacks and rather put them down first.
Additionally, one of the most important things you ought to do is keep an eye on your character’s HP because at the early stages; this can drain away like a broken pipe if you keep your eyes off it. But sure, as you progress and upgrade your character to higher levels, you’ll be longer on missions, and your HP will drain much slower, as we’ll talk about in the game’s tips and tricks article.
Upgrades
Upgrades are an integral part of Postknight 2 because you will find yourself stuck at a particular level without upgrading your equipment and upgrading them fast. In this game, the right equipment is final. Enemies will charge towards you to attack, and some will fire pink-ish lasers at you, making the Shield one of the essential items that deserve to be upgraded before anything else.
Like pretty much every other game, the enemies at the starting stages are easier to beat than the ones you’ll stumble on after you’ve reached a high level.
In your first delivery mission, you’ll be required to deliver Shields. After you complete this mission, the owner will give one to you, and you can equip it immediately. This will protect you from tougher enemies as you play on, and eventually, you’ll need to upgrade your Shield shortly after.
You’ll need the help of Blacksmith Tina to upgrade items in this game. You’ll meet her at the end of your fourth-fifth mission. Tina will act as both your trainee in certain aspects, as well as your blacksmith in the game. She’ll assist you in upgrading your equipment.
Upgrading items improves the capabilities of that equipment, but it also gives you coins every you upgrade. Most equipment has as much as five stars which is the max to the upgrade extent. Your Sword is also another important equipment that needs to be upgraded to help you defeat any impediments that stand in your way.
Shop
Many items in the shop, at least the most important ones, can only be purchased with real money. Many players must have seen that one is coming after their IAP experience with Postknight 1. However, despite the price, you can get some very cool stuff from the game’s Premium Market, such as a Curiosity Pack, Refresh Ticket, Status Reset Ticket, and tons of gems.
The good thing is that you can use those gems to purchase coins if you want. With a hundred gems, you can purchase 10,000 coins, and if you can spare 460 gems for 50,000 coins, you can do that as well. There are also timely ads that you can watch to get cool rewards from time to time.
