## Game Story
> *"A dark curse has befallen the land. The Ancient Dragon Ember has risen from its slumber, spreading fear and darkness across the realm. The only way to break the curse is to collect the three ancient keys - held by the Goblin King, the Skeleton Lord, and the Vampire Count - and confront the Dragon in its castle. Will you be the hero who saves the kingdom?"*

## Technical Architecture
### Design Patterns Used
#### 1. Strategy Pattern
Each enemy type implements its own attack strategy:
```java
// Goblin - Basic attack
@Override
public void attack(Entity target) {
System.out.println(name + " swings a crude club!");
target.receiveAttack(damage, false);
}
// Skeleton - Can miss
@Override
public void attack(Entity target) {
if (Math.random() < 0.1) {
System.out.println(name + " attacks but misses!");
return;
}
super.attack(target);
}
// Vampire - Lifesteal
@Override
public void attack(Entity target) {
target.receiveAttack(totalDamage, false);
int healAmount = (int)(totalDamage * 0.3);
heal(healAmount);
}
