There are going to be plenty of beasties, monsters, and wildlife that Dark and Light players will be either taming or slaughtering with a vengeance. To help simulate how characters gradually get to know their prey, the new bestiary will expand over time as mobs are encountered.
When an entry is filled out, the bestiary will show a monster’s location, weaknesses, strengths, what it eats, if it can be tamed, and if it can be ridden (after taming, naturally).
“Every creature in Dark and Light has its own creature card in the bestiary,” the team explained. “At the start of your adventure, all creature cards will be greyed out; once you kill or tame a creature for the first time, you’ll get a notification that the creature’s card has been unlocked, and it will be colored in the next time you check the bestiary. Once you’ve unlocked a creature’s card, you’ll be able to view additional details and lore about that creature by clicking on its card.”
Dark and Light is currently in closed beta testing.
