Medieval Dynasty - Major Roadmap Update #4!

Hello Village Leaders,

The time has come! The update is here! Here is the next Medieval Dynasty Roadmap Major Update. This time, we’ve added new resources, new tools and activities, a hairy new companion, and a whole lot of fixes and optimizations. Let’s take a look at all the additions in more detail.

It’s hard to imagine the growth of a community without proper resources. From now on in addition to iron, now you can also dig copper and tin. You will find copper and tin in caves, and these deposits are easy to reach. To find iron though, you have to dig a little bit deeper, into the caves themselves. To get access to their depths, you will need to build mines. Down below is the home to the valuable iron ore.

Just a few more hits, and we’ll be there.

After collecting those precious ores, you, or your people, can take them back to your village smithy. The blacksmith will smelt the raw tin and copper ores into tin and copper bars, which you can then combine and create the coveted bronze bars. Iron is a simpler process - you can convert iron ores straight into iron bars. Use these valuable bars to create a whole new range of copper and bronze tools and weapons, such as hammers, sickles, knives, bolts, arrows and more.

As you can see there is a whole new underground world with hidden treasures waiting to be discovered by you.

We also added a new model of transportation - a donkey. He is slower than your old friend, the trusty horse, but he can carry more stuff than his bigger cousin. And he’s also cheaper. The perfect value-for-money companion.

Your new steed, sire!

But that’s not all that you will get in this update. Take some time off from your everyday tasks, venture out, and visit Tutki. This is the place you can find and buy a donkey. We have also added a whole lot of fixes and other updates too. One of them is a change in buying and selling prices. From now on all selling prices will be higher and buying prices will be lower. See the changelog for all the details. And one last thing! From now on all our Dutch, Chinese, and Swedish fans can enjoy their medieval experience in their own languages.

Let us know what you think about this Major update below. Write down your thoughts in the comments section. What is the first thing you will do in the new update? We’re curious to hear your answers. And as always, don’t be shy, stay in touch, and follow us on our Social Media Channels.


All the best,

Your Toplitz Productions and Render Cube Teams

Medieval Dynasty - A Glimpse of What’s Coming Next

Hello Village Leaders,

It might seem like it’s been a while since we last spoke. But don’t worry - behind the scenes, work has been bubbling. So it seems fitting that we tell you a little bit about what you can expect in our next Medieval Dynasty Major Update. We can't tell you all the details yet, we don't want to spoil the whole surprise for you, but it doesn’t mean that we can’t do a little tease. Anyway, without further ado, let’s get into it.

Our developer team is working hard on creating new resources for you. These new resources will allow you to create new tools and weapons. They will also bring a new functionality to a building. What are the new resources and building functionalities? Well, that will be a spoiler, and we can’t have that! Not yet. We will reveal more information about them soon. But maybe this screen will get your brain cells percolating...

What is this blacksmith smithing?

With the next Major Update you get a new friend to count on - a Donkey! He’s small, strong, and smart. What’s his strengths, apart from being dashing? We will let you know that soon too!


A fairy friend… and a donkey.

Let’s end this update for now. We have to save something for the future. Hope that you enjoyed this little tease of the new content drop. Are you excited for it? And most importantly, what are your thoughts on the donkey!? Stay tuned, we will unveil more info soon.


Until next time,

Your Toplitz and Render Cube Teams
