Exploration

"This mode gives you the freedom to explore, to see beautiful locations and to find hidden Bosses and treasure chests in every corner of the world. There's no storyline in this mode. Just enjoy the scenery and make sure the Totem Pole is not destroyed."

You can enter exploration by selecting it as a mission through one of the blue portals in the lobby. In Exploration your goal is to survive and protect the Totem. You can recruit villagers to help you build and harvest materials. Fight bosses, find Celestial chests or do quests for cosmetics, or simply explore and build a village. This is the sandbox mode of Nostos.
