Chrono Ark: Crossroads Update EA 1.7 Reworks Field Objects

Chrono Ark
Chrono Ark Steam

Chrono Ark is a 2D deck-building roguelike RPG about rescuing the entire world from chaos. Your job is to recruit, train, and build a team of unique investigators to help restore the Twisted World. The game is unique in that all skills and perks appear as cards during battle. It is up to you what cards you’re going to use to help you win.

Anyway, the Crossroads Update EA 1.7 was released not long ago and it brings a lot of new content and features. One of the most notable is that field objects have completely been reworked.

For those who do not know, field objects are things that you can find randomly during your playthrough. In this update, the objects that you’ll discover can provide you with different benefits. For instance, you can find something that lets you learn a new skill. Others allow you to convert your items into Gold.

Aside from the reworked field objects, the developers are also giving you two choices when it comes to picking up lower-tier equipment. This makes it easier for you to obtain the items that you need to improve your team early on.
