Adventures are interactive stories that usually introduce new game features and are gradually completed over the course of a couple weeks.

History

Originally, there was two paths the adventures took: a long drawn out interactive series available on HoboWars 1, and "Lite Adventures" available on Facebook Hobowars. Eventually, HoboWars 2 used the interactive series sets from HoboWars 1 and Hobo Arena used the Lite Adventures.

After 3 long series on HoboWars 1, there was a shift towards keeping the theme but reducing the time set away from having multiple days to allow a "Mini Adventure" to be completed within a single day.

Finally, a fourth longer adventure set was composed for the purpose of helping new hobos to the different basic game aspects.

Eventually, the 3 original adventures series from HoboWars 1 and 2 were introduced to Facebook. However the fourth "Intro" Adventures was not transferred.

Mechanics

Adventures are usually comprised of tasks that need to be completed before the next task can be started. Additionally, after completing a task, there is usually a delay on when the next task can be started. Once an Adventure is fully completed, it cannot be restarted or played through again.

Almost all of the items you find and use during the Adventures and stored in the Unusually Large Backpack.

Main Adventures

Currently, four main Adventures have been released. The distinction of these sets is that the story line is drawn out across the course of several days. However, the completion of the entire series yields a very important update that will undoubtedly help your hobo.

It is unknown if there are currently plans in the works to release more, however Cube, during a recent interview, hinted that there might be another one in the mix soon.

Intro Adventures

Exclusive to HoboWars and HoboWars2, the Intro Adventures take place in the City. They are comprised of multiple tasks designed to introduce new players to the game.

Your life as a hobo begins when the Old Man takes your Cardboard Box from you and has you see Duncan to complete various tasks for him in order to get it back.
