[edit] Introduction

Rule the Seas is a text-based multiplayer online game. Your goal is to make money, build up your attributes, and gain levels so that you might one day be the Ruler of the Seas and win a computer worth over $6500.

[edit] Statistics

HP: Health points determine how long you can survive in battle. Once your Health Points are down to zero, you get sent to the Hospital. While in the Hospital, your HPs will restore. HPs can also be restored with the use of Medi-Packs. But Medi-packs will not reduce your hospital stay time once you are in the hospital. Your total available Health Points increase by 50 with each level.

[edit] Energy

Energy is used during training at the Gym and during battles. At the gym, your Energy points are used to determine your attributes increase. For battles, your Energy level has to be at least 25% in order to attack someone. Energy regenerates over time. You can refill your energy bar by clicking on �Refill� and using 10 Points. Your total available Energy increases with each new level.

[edit] Awake

Awake points determine how effectively you train. The more Awake points you have, the more attribute points you receive while training at the gym. Awake points regenerate very slowly over time. Taking a Caffeine Pill will completely refill your Awake Points. Your total available Awake points increase when you buy a house.

[edit] Nerve

Nerve is used to determine which types of crimes you can commit. The more daring (and profitable!) a crime is, the more Nerve points it costs. It also costs Nerve points to break citizens out of prison and to mug other citizens (each action costs 10 nerve points). Nerve points regenerate over time. Nerve points are only used during the commission of a crime. You can refill your Nerve bar by clicking on �Refill� and using 10 Points. Your total available Nerve increases with each new level.

[edit] Attributes

[edit] Strength

Determines how much damage you inflict on your opponent. Strength can be increased by training at the gym and by having a job. In battle, strength is multiplied by whatever Weapon you are carrying.

[edit] Defense

Determines how much damage you can absorb without being harmed. Defense can be increased by training at the gym and by having a job. In battle, defense is multiplied by whatever Armor you are carrying.

[edit] Speed

A higher speed attribute increases the chance of success during prison breaks, muggings, and other crimes.

During training, your attribute increase is a factor of the number of Energy points you use and the number of Awake points you have. It is best to train when Energy and Awake are full. Some drugs also affect the efficiency of your training.

[edit] Other

[edit] Level

Your level is based on the number of Experience Points (XP) accumulated. With each new level, you gain HP, Energy, and Nerve. However, increasing Level without an appropriate increase in Attributes will make you an easy target for lower level guys with high attributes to increase their XP.

[edit] Money

The amount of money you have on you. Money is used to purchase houses, cars, pets, weapons, armor, and other items.

[edit] Points

Points are used to refill Energy and Nerve to full capacity. Points can be accumulated by voting for Rule the Seas or by purchasing through the buy points link at the top of your page.

[edit] Newspaper

A place to go to announce something or see what others are saying about you.

[edit] Lucky Dip

One chance per day to win some money. It costs $1,000. This game usually pays out very well, so be sure to do it every day.

[edit] Slot Machine

Spin the slots and win some money. Two out of three numbers nets 5x your bet, three out of three numbers nets you 10x your bet. Maximum allowable bet is based on your level. It is limited to 250 spins per day. It usually pays out well, so bet your maximum amount.

[edit] Higher/Lower

A game where you bet whether the next card will be higher or lower than the current card (note that Aces are low, not high). It costs $1,000 to play a hand, and you get $500 when you win. So, it takes two wins per hand to break even. It�s hard to lose money on this game, but you don�t make much, either. You can play an unlimited number of times.

[edit] 50/50 Chance

Two citizens put up an equal amount of money. Winner takes all (-10% for the house). You can either match an already-existing bet, or start your own.

[edit] Your Home

[edit] Events

Be sure to advance as soon as you can.

[edit] Your Gang

The menu on the left side of the page has shortcuts to many of the popular places found in the city (Inventory, Your Gang, Mailbox, Events, Search and Newspaper). In addition, it contains the following:

[edit] Gym

The Gym is where citizens go to train and raise their attributes. You can train for as many Energy Points as you have left. You can train on one attribute only, or you can train multiple attributes. The increase in attribute that you get is dependent on the amount of Energy you use and what level your Awake is at.

[edit] Crime

Crimes are very important in the Rule the Seas World. Crimes give you XP and money, at the risk of getting yourself thrown in jail. Crime success is also dependant on your speed. The following is the list of crimes and their rewards:

Note that two crimes - Prison Break and Mugging - are not committed from the Crime menu.

Mugging players in the game, does not send them to the hosp. but only takes a portion of their money. It gives the mugger 250 exp. Points.

A successful Prison Break yields 500 exp. points yay!

[edit] Prison

You get sent to prison if you commit a crime and are caught by the police. The amount of time you spend in prison is dependent upon the crime that you committed.

The hospital is where you go when you are killed. There is a 20 minute Hospital stay if you are killed. While in the hospital, you cannot train at the gym, commit a crime, or attack a citizen. You can, however, do everything else.
