A few BASIC TIPS. Right click to bring up menu (inventory and such). Kill monsters in mine to get XP & level up. Higher levels = more pay at work (carpentry or blacksmith). AFTER BUYING GEAR, remember to equip it in menu (right click , left click on equip , then your poster and then optimize). After being you house, sign outside house is used for upgrades. For QUICK TRAVEL check map in inns and in house after a few upgrades and stuff... Chat to girls in after you have upgraded your house for next quest. ENJOY.
For those who have issues with the display being to big. In Google Chrome hold CTRL and scroll with the mouse wheel (Zoom in and out) or click on the menu button of chrome (top right 3 bars) and change the zoom settings.
Getting more heroes : Research the Bakery , upgrade it for more hero slots , hire a hero in pub.
