What's New in Version 0.5.3

While we're working on big new features like an interactive tutorial, we've been making many more improvements and fixes to the game. This quick update has a few things that can make it easier to play over screen sharing with friends, and some options to help out new players.

We're aware there was a server problem with the in-game feedback system recently, but it should be better now. If it's not working when you try sending feedback, you can still reach us via our contact page.

When sending in feedback, please take a look first at our status Trello board to see if it's already on the list. For gameplay issues, check the official FAQ to make sure it's really a bug, and not a misunderstanding.

Interactions:
  • Added several options for reducing the difficulty of the game: bonus Spirit growth, omitting initial Explore, and unlimited undo.
  • There's now a confirmation when choosing a deck to gain a power card from.
  • You can now move the map using arrow or WASD keys.


Information Display:
  • Improved 3D Presence tokens with unique icons and adjusted textures.
  • Right click boards in the New Game screen to view them in full.
  • Added an option to show land numbers on the island boards. This can make it easier to make plans with other players over screen sharing!


Audio:
  • The in-game music has been expanded.
  • More sound effects have been added and updated.


Bug Fixes:
  • Tidal Boon now allows you to select inland lands with Ocean's Presence (added by Indomitable Claim).
  • Fixed a problem where at the start of Guard the Isle's Heart, too many icons showing the inner lands were shown.
  • Mists of Oblivion no longer incorrectly generates fear from destroying Explorers.
