action

Tingle, a 35-year-old man, is awakened by a voice telling him to come to the spring in the west of his home. Once there, Tingle meets Ruby-Grandpa, who offers him the opportunity to live a fantastic life in Rubinland if he can be transformed. Tingle accepts the offer, and rubies become his life. Now Tingle has to buy as many rubies as possible to throw them into the well. As a result, the spring grows into a huge tower, which should lead to Rubinland. On his journey, Tingle enters a total of eleven islands, spread across three continents, where he has to take on many opponents and solve various puzzles, as well as traverse a dungeon on some islands . When he has finally collected enough rubies to grow the tower into Ruby Land, Tingle notices that Ruby Grandpa only fooled him to get his rubies. This leads to a fight between the two, which Tingle can win.

Gameplay

After the encounter with Ruby Grandpa, the player has the task of multiplying his rubies as high as possible. For the most part, this is done through bargaining ; H. the player only gets goods and information in exchange for rubies. If he gives too few rubies, he does not get the consideration and usually loses his rubies anyway. However, if he gives a lot more rubies than necessary, he may lose money. In return, the player can also ask for rubies for the goods and services they produce. Here he often only has one option, if he asks too little, makes hardly any profit, if he asks too much, he usually gets nothing at all. The player has the option of walking home at any time in order to be able to save his game status there.

Tingle gets goods by e.g. B. fights with opponents, removes them from plants or finds them in treasure chests. There is a buyer for every product in the city. Tingle can combine many products before he sells them, even according to certain recipes that he has to find, and thus sell them for a higher value.
