Turnarchist is turn-based: monsters only act when you do. On mobile, most actions are done with swipes and long-press.
Move / attack: Swipe up/down/left/right
Keep moving: Swipe and hold (movement repeats while your finger stays down)
Actions (attack / pick up / interact / examine): Long-press on a target to open the action menu
Inventory: Tap the Inventory button (bottom-right)
Use / equip: Tap an item in your quickbar/inventory
Rearrange items: Touch + move to start dragging, then release on a slot
Drop item: Drag an item outside the inventory UI, then release
Full map: Tap the minimap to open/close the full map
Skills: Tap the XP counter to open the skills menu
Bestiary: Tap the Bestiary button to open/close
Menu: Tap the Menu button to open/close
Tip: swipes that start on UI (inventory, menus, etc) are treated as UI gestures, not movement. Swipe on the game world to move.
