The game is set in the midst of World War  One and pits a team of investigators and soldiers against an ancient evil, one older than humanity itself, who is using the carnage of the great war to build an undead army deep beneath the battlefields of Europe. It is based on the works of H.P.Lovecraft. He was a writer of horror/science fiction stories who did most of his work in the 1920s/1930s. Since his death in 1937, the appeal of is fiction has grown and grown. Many contemporary horror writers, artists and film-makers cite him as a huge influence. There is more about him here and as his work is now in the public domain, it is easy (and well worth) getting hold ofto read.   \nGAMEPLAY  \nBasic Gameplay  \nThe game is a turn based strategy. The aim is to finish each mission and this is done by completing all of the objectives in each. To review the objectives, press the portrait image in the top-right of the screen. You also need to keep the key Investigators alive. You have between 3 and 6 Investigators in each mission. Each Investigator can move and act as many times as they like until all of their Action Points (AP) are expended. Once you have run out of Action Points for all your Investigators or have done all you wish to do in a level, press the End Turn button (bottom-right) and this begins the enemy turn.  \nGameplay Help  \nHelp information in this game can be displayed at any point by pressing the ‘?‘ button. The game also has a tutorial we strongly recommend completing (‘Basic Training’ in the frontend) and help pages in the front-end (Game Guides > Field Manual) .  \nControls  \n• Selecting an Investigator: Tap/click on any unit to select it.  \n• Movement: Once an Investigator is selected, tapping/clicking on a square gives the Action Point cost of moving there. Tap or click on the same square a second time and the Investigator will move there.  \n• Attacking: Once an Investigator is selected, touch/click then hold on a unit to attack it. This will bring up the Action Bar. This tells you the Action Point cost, HIT % and Damage of the attack. The attack can be improved by allocating more Action Points to the attack by tapping the Aim button. Press the tick button to confirm the attack, or the cross to cancel it. If the tick is greyed out then your selected unit is either out of range, out of line-of-sight or does not have enough Action Points for the selected attack.  \n• Supporting Actions (Using First Aid, Psychoanalysis etc.): Friendly units can assist one another when standing next to each other. To perform an action select the unit with the item you wish to use, then hold tap/click on the recipient unit to perform an action. Press the tick button to confirm the action or the cross to cancel it. If the tick is greyed out then the selected unit cannot perform the action because either it does not have enough Action Points or the target unit is already on full Hit Points (HP) or Sanity (SAN) .  \n• Navigating the Screen: Use touch/click-and-drag to scroll the camera around the mission area and rotate camera buttons (see below) to change the view. There is also a pinch-zoom (or using the mouse wheel on PC) to help you select things.  \n• Skills: To use any object in the game, it is a combination of a skill and item. For example, to shoot a shotgun your Investigator needs that item equipped (such as a Winchester)–then the skill% for the Shotgun skill combined with  \nthat particular weapon (and the range) give a HIT% . The ‘Cthulhu Mythos’ skill is used for casting spells (which come later in the game) and the Psychoanalysis skill, combined with a Psychology book, allows one Investigator to restore some Sanity (or SAN, also later in the game..) to another.  \n• Buying and Selling Items (in the Quatermaster): To buy an item, t","cbCaiudOQPS72ZwD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiudOQPS72ZwD","pdf",269529,"English","# Introduction\n# Gameplay\n## Basic Gameplay\n## Gameplay Help\n## Controls\n## HUD Guide\n# Tactics","[{\"question\":\"How does turn order work in The Wasted Land?\",\"answer\":\"The game is turn-based.
