Summary: Sherwood Dungeon, a 3D browser-based massive multiplayer online role playing game where you defend your honor in combat with players from around the world. Sherwood features an infinitely deep dungeon filled with monsters.

The Merchant Store
If you go up the ramp in the Keep, above the Dungeon entrance, there's a Merchant in a purple tunic. Clicking on him will bring up a Merchant screen where you can shop for new items and sell your old items. Your character starts with 16 gold coins, but more is available in the dungeon by searching the chests and barrels. Remember, you can also sell items you collect in the dungeon for gold as well.

Combat

Player Vs. Player and Player Vs. Monster combat is quite easy to understand, but in the Dungeon, PvP is prohibited, and in NPC zones, all combat is prohibited. You can fight multiple opponents at one time, but since level doesn't matter in Sherwood PvP, this can be inconvenient. For every monster (or player) you kill, you gain a certain amount of experience points, leveling up upon reaching a high enough total amount of experience or XP.

Occasionally, a monster will drop something, most of the time a weapon or a shield. Depending on your level, you have a certain amount of health points, and the opponent, player or monster, has health points too. The first to reach 0 health points dies. There are armor points which vary according to any rings, amulets, and shields you might be wearing. These points help reduce the amount of damage your opponent(s) inflict.

In this game, when you die, you respawn often at or near the place where you first appeared upon entering the island. You do not lose any items, levels, experience, coins, or health when dead. Technically, nothing bad happens to you when you die, but if you were fighting another player, they will recieve experience for defeating you.

Items

There are many items which you can recieve, from merchants spread across the islands, from monster drops (rare), and chest and barrels in the dungeon. These chests and barrels seem to be the only place you can get gold coins, besides selling your own items. There are weapons, shields, potions, amulets, rings, gold coins, scrolls, and runes.

Boss Monsters
Once you reach Dungeon Level 5, Skeleton Warrior Bosses start appearing in the dungeon. The last know location for the boss monster is indicated on your map with a purple dot (regular monsters appear with a grey dot). These Skeletal Warriors have three times the health of regular monsters, so bring a friend to help. Learn to block effectively if you want to defeat a boss by yourself. They're worth tons of experience points!

Portals
There are four additional islands to explore in Sherwood that you can teleport to by using the portals in the Castle Keep and on the two small towers. The monsters in these lands can be tough to defeat if you are not yet at the required XP Level. The portal to Haunted Palm Island (Level 5 area) is in the Castle Keep to the left of the Dungeon entrance. Use the portal to the right of the Dungeon entrance to get to Frost Bite Island (Level 10 area). Portals to Lost Lagoon Island (Level 20 area) and Ancient Sherwood (Level 30 area) are accessed at the top of the two smaller towers.
