Common Questions

Is Alundra similar to The Legend of Zelda?

Yes, Alundra is frequently compared to early 2D Zelda games for its top-down action-adventure gameplay, dungeon exploration, puzzle-solving, and acquiring new tools, though it is notably more puzz-centric and has a darker, more mature story.

Can I save the game anywhere?

No. You can only save your progress by finding and sleeping on a bed within dungeons (the red door rooms) or by using the inn in town, which also fully restores your health. There is no save-anywhere feature; the in-game 'sleeping' act is the save point.

Where can I get additional bottles/healing potions?

You can find a bottle in a specific optional dungeon cave. The Witch later sells bottles. Another extra bottle might be in one of the later desert areas. Potions themselves can be purchased at the item shop vendor.

How do I fight the first boss?

Kill the four snakes first and then the main ghost's mouth; only when all five enemies are in this state will the main body be damaged. It is immune to damage for a long duration until this is first done.

A story character has died. Have I failed?

No. Alundra's story involves several tragic events where village NPCs may perish due to their nightmares once they fall asleep. This narrative progression is scripted and not a failure state, so continue with game after such events occur.
