In Ravensword: Shadowlands, Crescent Moon Games provides a brief tutorial that covers the basics, then throws you into a massive virtual world populated with bears, trolls, goblins and other nasty critters that do a great job ripping your hero to shreds. Hand holding? User-friendly navigation? Such things don't exist in this iPhone and iPad adventure. Instead, you'll need to figure it out on your own, and learn by doing, even if such risky behavior results in your character's demise; it most certainly will. That said, this beginner's guide will help you on this treacherous journey.

Sell Unwanted Items
Gold can be difficult to come by. Fortunately, there's no shortage of non-player characters willing to buy your junk. Goblin shields, goblets, swords, clubs, rat meat, venison? Everything's on the table, so if you don't need something, sell the heck out of it.
Stock Up On Useless Crap
As a side note to selling, it's therefore in your best interest to slaughter a few animals on the way to the next quest, since you'll be able to unload this stuff later.
Tip: Smash wooden barrels to find gold.
Buy Health And Energy Potions
The first is self-explanatory. Although health regenerates, it does so at a slow pace. Not exactly ideal with multiple enemies attacking from all sides. Energy is arguably more important, since having some lets your character unleash multiple attacks in rapid succession, sort of like a combo. Run out, and you leave the hero wide open to taking damage and/or getting knocked down.
Tip: Restoration potions serve a dual purpose by replenishing both Health and Energy.
