A quite linear, yet entertaining and humorous adventure where Astral finds himself in a strange new land after eating some questionable mushrooms... Lots of fun, challenging, and unusual fights riddled with puzzles and hidden stuff.
Author: guest273 (Latvia), 19-01-2025 11:30 Like Would recommend! - Astral's Trip Overall this map (Astral's Trip) is well crafted!
It's a map made to be a series of challenge fights with limited troops and spell casting with minimal puzzle elements!
Luckily the challenge fights aren't in the category of 'brain bleeding'.
I played trough this map in a single stream: https://www.youtube.com/live/ck4zu_YRR7s?sttick=0
It took me ~3 hours to finish.
I think it's a perfect map for an intermediate player to hone his skills. As such, this map gets a recommendation from me!

Thanks - Astral's Trip
Thanks for the wakthrough. It was a very interesting map with many difficult battles (for a newer player)
The map is quite balanced and is winnable with the right strategies. A different strategy is required for each battle.
Author: wasilix, 12-08-2021 21:18 Like Great map - Astral's Trip Nicely tuned map. It's clear that the author spent a lot of time balancing out fights and I definitely enjoyed the result

Author: Ossi (Finland), 29-10-2020 22:14 Hi - Astral's Trip Hi, I tried to play this map but at 122 purple comes and takes my castle, and the game ends. Is there anything I can do to prevent this? The map seems interesting.

Hi - Astral's Trip
If you didn't waste time you should be able to get to the castle to defend it in time. It's maybe the toughest battle on the map. You don't have enough movement points to get both the vial of lifeblood and the mana well, so get the mana, then go to the town to defend it.
The way I did it was by hypnotizing the Sea Dogs and using them & the tower to cut down the enemy shooters. Use cure every turn to heal your mage. This takes a bunch of tries because based on the RNG of the enemy shooters damage, your mage might die in the first round before you get a chance to cure.

Author: Stoney Bologna, 28-08-2020 20:33 *SPOILER* Passing Lizard Warriors *SPOILER* - Astral's Trip Hey, thanks for playing my map! :) You need to equip the necklace of swiftness that can be found hidden before the portal (located in the castle area).

Cool! - Astral's Trip
Of course!!! I was sure I'm missing something like that. Thanks.
Author: Pasha, 28-08-2020 19:57 Pasha - Astral's Trip I enjoy playing this map, but I got stuck with Lizard warriors, where you have a choice: horseman, shield or bones. Please help! I tried turning my mage into a skeleton to enable Death Ripple, but Lizards turn is first and they kill it so no chances.
Thanks

No problem - Astral's Trip
No problem. Thanks for the hint. Now I'm having trouble finding Pendant of Total Recall, which is required to pass the Quest Guard at the north east. I checked the map back and forth a few times, but can't find where I missed it.

*SPOILER* pendant location *SPOILER* - Astral's Trip
The pendant is hidden behind the skull cave at the entrance of the underground swamp area. If you read the sign it gives you a hint... P.S. make sure you read ALL the signs

* SPOLIER * pendant location - Astral's Trip
Yes, I think I saw that sign and found the box it points to. There were a ring and cape, but no pendant. Must be something obvious I'm missing...
Thanks

OMG, finally found it. Could not immediately recognize what that sign really means.

Author: Gremlin (Erathia), 13-08-2020 09:29 Gremlin - Astral's Trip A really amazing map!I had good time playing it, some fights were really tough (mostly energy elementals) and some really clever (like fight against trolls + golems). I took words about not losing any units a bit too serious perhaps, didn't lose any imps in fight vs hydras and tried my best against the final boss, though lost enchanters and 1 master genie due to teleport spell...

Gremlin - Astral's Trip
Thank you so much, truly glad you enjoyed the map! :D Also, way to go on not losing any units on that Hydra battle, not an easy task! I Don't think it's possible to win the final battle with no losses though hah.. take care! :)
Author: User (warsaw), 12-08-2020 20:27 Fight - Astral's Trip How to beat Energy Elementals with only 3 enchanters?
Author: Stoney Bologna, 12-08-2020 16:21 *SPOILER* Tricky first battle *SPOILER* - Astral's Trip You have to shoot the troll with the magi after golem retaliation. Kill golems until 7 or 8 remain, hit with 1 remaining troll after waiting with magi, shoot and kill troll then finish off remaining golems with magi. Thanks for playing my map! :D
Author: Wojciech (Polska), 12-08-2020 12:40 Map - Astral's Trip But how can I win with tree ambush. Ok i give troll a spell, they kill golems but i can't kill them cause they heal each turn??

*SPOILER* Energy Elemental Part *SPOILER* - Astral's Trip
This battle honestly is one of the hardest! Make sure you have full spell points, group all enchanters into one stack, make use of slow, cure, wait, and defend. One cast of haste can be helpful too at times. Use the corners to your advantage! Thanks for playing! :D

Ok, it is no problem now but a castle is atacked in 2 week and ... there is nothing inside. How can I be there if i mut wait for mana before each battle?

Mana - Astral's Trip
Hey, before you reach your castle you never have to wait for mana regeneration. You fight with what you have and when more is needed, there are events on your path that give that +X needed for some kind of spell.

Elementals - Astral's Trip
To beat the elementals - no problem but not to lose 1 Entchanter... that's a problem for me :(

elems - Astral's Trip
I have a one skeleton + 3 enchanters in this fight, decided to save him just in case. Wonder if this sponger would be useful for something beside spoiling my morale xD
