Plan your next Children of Morta session
Our independent guide breaks down Children of Morta’s core systems so you can make informed choices about character selection, dungeon navigation, and cooperative play without relying on trial‑and‑error alone.
01 / THE GUIDE
Comparing Combat Roles
List each family member’s primary attack type and note how their defensive options differ. This helps you match a partner’s strengths with your own for balanced co‑op encounters.
- Focus on unlocking a mix of offensive and defensive skills early to handle varied enemy types.
- Swap to a healer when the party’s health is low to avoid unnecessary damage.
02 / THE GUIDE
Mapping Dungeon Layouts
After a run, sketch the floor plan you encountered. Repeating this across several runs reveals common patterns and informs where to prioritize exploration for side quests.
- Explore every room on early runs to discover hidden side quests.
- Save progress before a boss to retry without losing overall dungeon progress.
03 / THE GUIDE
Skill Upgrade Prioritization
Track which unlocked skills give the most XP or damage boost in early levels. Focus on those to accelerate family progression before tackling higher‑tier dungeons.
- Coordinate character choices with a partner to cover complementary combat roles.
- Use the online co‑op to finish difficult bosses that require simultaneous attacks.
04 / THE GUIDE
Co‑op Role Coordination
Before starting a co‑op session, decide which player will handle crowd control versus damage. Aligning roles reduces overlap and improves efficiency against bosses.
- Allocate skill points to passive abilities that benefit all members for a balanced boost.
- Prioritize upgrades that improve survivability when tackling higher‑level dungeons.
05 / THE GUIDE
Visual Cue Awareness
Pay attention to lighting changes that signal hidden enemies or traps. Recognizing these cues early can prevent unnecessary damage and preserve health for tougher fights.
- Adjust display settings to maximize contrast for clearer visibility of enemy projectiles.
- Take moments to appreciate background details; they often hint at hidden secrets.
