Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City/Gameplay

Guild Creation
Before your adventure can begin, you will need to go to the Explorers Guild to create your guild. First you will need to name your guild. Then you need to register adventurers which involves entering a name and selecting their class and portrait. Up to 30 adventurers can be registered and 5 make a full party.

Mapping
The bottom touch screen is where you will draw the map as you explore the labyrinth and the sea. You can draw lines, fill squares, and add icons. You can also add your own text notes on squares. An accurate map will help you navigate back to town to stock up and save. Each step you take automatically fills the square you are in.
