Gameplay
PlaneShift gameplay is based on classical Multiplayer Role Playing Game style, with exploration, magic, single player or team based combat and quests. A major goal of the game is to explore and learn. This can either be done by reading books or by learning about the world by speaking with the NPCs. The interaction with the NPCs is based on predefined answers the player can pick from a list, and also a freeform text entry, which uses natural language parsing to interpret the text. Some of these NPC's provide quests and guidance on how to proceed to gain items and powers. The quests are sequenced to allow character progression in the different skills of the game. There are also events, hosted by Game-Moderators, that allow for unique quests, festivals and happenings. Players increase their character's skills by completing these quests in the game. The game has strong focus on Roleplay and IC (In-Character) behaviour and speech is promoted by the Game Master team.
Players trade using the currency Tria, a triangle-shaped coin. There are denominations for 10, 20 and 50 Tria, named Hexas, Octas and Circles. PlaneShift Game free Download Full Version.

Character creation
The PlaneShift character creation tool features two options. The first option is to choose to make a «quick» character, in which a player chooses a «path» and the character's specific attributes are chosen based on the profession. A path reflects the career of the character in his youth, and has associated events which will set the starting skills and stats. The available paths are «Street Warrior», «Enchanter», «Fighting Monk», «Warlock», «Knight», «Rogue». The second option is to make a character with the «custom» method. This method allows the player to choose many additional aspects of the character by describing the story of his or her birth, parents, jobs, house, siblings, and the life events that happened up to his or her adulthood. The choices made affect the attributes and skills the character has.
Combat
Planeshift features both player versus environment and player versus player combat. The latter is implemented as the ability to engage induels on a voluntary basis, which requires both parties to agree to the conditions of the duel. If two players' guilds are at war with each other, they do not need to agree to a duel in order to initiate combat with each other. Characters attain progression points (PP) when they successfully engage in combat and use certain abilities, which are used for training skills. PlaneShift uses a skill based progression system, which allows the player to develop this character in any skills without the mandatory choice of a profession.
When a character dies they are transported into the Death Realm, a version of the underworld which the player must navigate in order to return to life.
Magic
Planeshift magic comprises several distinct «Ways» (Schools): Crystal Way, Red Way, Brown Way, Azure Way, Blue Way, and Dark Way. Casting spells requires combinations of special magical items called glyphs. The spells are not known upfront, and have to be researched by combining glyphs in sequence.
