Why a text RPG

Text RPGs in Telegram run on imagination and an unhurried pace. You do not need hours at a screen: make a couple of moves on a break, send your hero off and come back later. It suits people who like reading, planning builds and chatting with guildmates.

The button interface works even on an old phone and slow internet, since the whole game is ordinary messages.

A game in Ukrainian

Most Telegram RPGs come in Russian or English. Ostromag is made for Ukrainian speakers, with interface, descriptions and quests in Ukrainian. It is also a pleasant way to practice the language if you are learning it. 🇺🇦

Useful tips

• Follow the news channel for updates and events.
• Look for promo codes. The game has run bonus gold promotions via partner channels, with codes entered in the bot.
• Do not rush to spend gold. Learn which items are truly useful first.
• Find a guild. Tough content is easier and more fun together.

The game also has a second bot with the same description and links to the same news channel and chat. If the main bot does not respond, check project news for the current address.

A simple rule for newcomers: always keep an active quest, and if you run out, visit the tavern or ask in the chat.
