Happiness is important in any relationship, and as complicated as it sounds, Roguemance's relationships are no exception. Contentment is an interesting mechanism that spreads its roots and settles organically into every part of the game, from battles to choosing paths. Keeping yourself and your partners happy does not only mean that they stick around, but also that their levels go up, in the process increasing hit points. It is an area that, as infuriating as it can be, shines with brilliance in Roguemance.
