Castle Greyrot, a new rogue-lite RPG on the horizon! Featuring Duran!



Hello, Time Travelers!
I've been absent for the past year, working on a new project called Castle Greyrot. Imagine Shattered Hourglass bosses, dialogues, decision-making, and job system but it's set in dark medieval times.

The story is Castle Greyrot is a living being that changes its location every 10 years and corrupts its surroundings wherever it goes. As an experienced Commander, you are summoned to engage in a raid on Castle Greyrot.
With mercenaries on your side, you're about to venture to the Castle and destroy the unknown evil force within. It's that simple.

You can check out Castle Greyrot's page right away!

1) I saw the previous comments here. and I saw that Zulwhern could be recruited. My party already has 5 people, namely Duran, Treephop, Juliet, Suan, and Mio. Then I visited Zulwhern's house and I didn't find him there. Is it after my party is full that I can't recruit anyone else? And will it affect the number of weapons, armor, and accessories? I want to try to complete the collections of all weapons, armors, accessories, and items.

2) Can I re-enter the Robot Facility / Fauntown? Unfortunately I still left some unopened chests there and there is a mission there (I think) to destroy the robots

In the quest against Faceless Doom, I couldn't beat him and in the end I was told to give 30 Sealight Bloom. After I gave 30 Sealight Bloom to the enemy, and after drinking it changed to male/female (I don't know for sure) and sent me to Qual to receive the reward. In Qual I received 100k Gold, Sharpest Paw, Sacred Tree Armor, and Paw Master. Can Faceless Doom be defeated through combat? And if it could be defeated through combat would the rewards be any different?
You can't defeat it in combat, I designed it like that :~D There is no reward by secretly cheating the game and defeating it.

1. How to use SPEC type weapons, it has a lot in my inventory but I don't know how to use it. Is there a special job or mastery to be able to use this weapon?
2. What are the benefits of Healthy Pocket items, in the description it says "it's healthy item for everyone, carry on!". Is there HP recovery in every turn or something?
It's been a while since I check on my project, as far as I remember SPEC license can be looted from a Hunt that you take from Tidender.
About Healthy Pocket, if I didn't mention any health regen it probably only gives HP Boost. Maybe someone can confirm it.


The Healthy Pockets is a Bag Item. It can be worn by any party member. It only affects the person wearing it. It should say it is for anyone instead of everyone. What he meant is that anyone can wear it. It raises HP by about 5%.

Thank you very much, I didn't expect my many questions to be answered, I like RPG games like this. Starting from the bestiary feature, collecting equipment that is not available in the shop, fishing and collecting fish, completing many side quests, and exploring interesting places that are not set in the main storyline. Among the 2D RPG games I've played this is one of the best in my opinion, I'm not joking. By the way I've spent 130 hours on this game and it's still going on until now. I hope I can ask again here when I'm confused in playing this game. Great job.

I'm glad that you are having a blast with Shattered Hourglass! It took many years and thousands of hours to make those and improve upon them.
After you've done with Shattered Hourglass I would be glad to hear your review on here or Steam platform! :~D

First of all I want to apologize for asking so many questions. I wonder if anyone can help me:
1. In Dead Town, I found Bone and suddenly a new quest appeared. What should I do with this Bone?
2. Where exactly are Left Trin and Gwyndia located? I want to complete my fish collection.
3. About Qual, is there any clue where I can find him/her? Is he/she in Wlandia or in Icdalen? Do I have to search every corner as instructed? (I don't know if it's a man or a woman, sorry).
4. About Doodelus, it can be found in Wlandia's most green land. Where exactly is it found?
5. Are there any clues to being able to answer the 4 questions in Volcano? I'm confused to find the answer.
6. Are there any clues to being able to answer the 2 questions in Pyramid? This question confuses me more.
7. When does the prison at Lumberjack open? Will there be a quest for Suan to be able to open the prison?
8. I got the Hand Mirror in the tower next to Dead Town. What can I do with this?
1)Head to Trin Island (Near Volcano), get on the boat~ Sail to the north island where the big tree.
2)Left Trin is the shore map just the left side of the Trin, you need to sail there or go right from Seran then head down. Gwyndia is located just the right side of Lumberjack Town, the Ice Path ;) You can fish there (near the entrance)
3) Qual is kinda spoiler but you start its sidequest on a small island with your upgraded boat (from Sandock)
4) Head to Chronix, go south then go right to the woods.
5) The questions are in the Volcano, there are some tablets that give you lore about it. All answers are there.
6) Pyramid questions are based on Ancient Egypt, try to check its alternative words, google can quickly solve it :~D
7) It's in the post-game, you'll see when it happens.
8) In Tidender there is an NPC who wants that Hand Mirror.

Have fun

I bought Dynamite at the shop in Qual town and got Windmill Key too, but I don't know what it's used for. Does anyone know?
Dynamite re-opens the Volcano. It's the first dungeon of the second world. Windmill Key just like its name implies opens the Windmill just near of Qual Town.

It seemed difficult to collect 20 home decorations. I only know to get decorations from gachapon boxes.


See Lulu in Icywland.I think she gives you the first one. Then, there will be a merchant that appears outside of the merchant's tent. They are somewhat expensive, though.
You may have to go to Players' House and add the decoration that Lulu gives you before the merchant appears.

You have to buy the Players' House from the guy in Hunters' Hut for 8,500G.
Once you have 20(I think) Players' House decorations, you will see a new area to the west of the Players' House on the coast.
Complete that area.You will need 50,000 gold when you do that area but, you will not lose it. You will see what I mean when the time comes.

Regarding the drop rate of the Rokurokubi and Ogre Magi enemies, what is my percentage chance of getting Mjolnir and Magic Club? I've done a lot of grinding and got neither of those. And I've already set the difficulty to Loot Hunt too.
Drop rates have been very erratic in this game. I've played it at least 8 times for different endings. If you can get the Golden Bell, it will help on most enemies.
I had one item that the drop rate was 500. I had over 600 kills with the Golden Bell=1200+ and never got it. It kind of is what it is, sadly.
Golden Bell? Where can I get it? In the shop or enemies drop?

Hey, Sawworm.
I wanted to remind you about the selling price of Sealight Bloom.
The picture is above on this page.
It is 10,000G to buy but only sells for 1500G.
I actually don't want people to sell their Sealight Blooms because of one side quest takes way too many Sealight Blooms :(

Yes, I remember. But, I still got the 1,000,000,000G
