Brave adventurers!

Following just kicking off our Steam Next Fest demo yesterday, we’re thrilled to begin our New Player Guide video series to help you learn the ins and outs of Frosthaven. Our first video in the series goes over Character Creation (more details below). Also, we’ve just released a separate Steam demo page to give you the chance to share a review of the demo and what you like about it!

[h3]NEW PLAYER GUIDE SERIES – VIDEO #1: CHARACTER CREATION[/h3][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
This is the beginning of our Frosthaven New Player Guide video series, in which we give you a look at gameplay essentials to help you take your first steps into the Frozen North. We know Frosthaven can be a complex game with plenty to learn and master, so we hope this video series gives you all the info you need to know to successfully complete your campaign within Frosthaven! In this first video, we go over the process of creating starting player characters, including choosing their personal quests and getting their first items to prepare them for venturing into the cold.


Before you start this process on your own and begin a campaign, we highly recommend playing through the tutorial “Training Grounds” to learn the basics of the game. After that, you should be ready to begin a campaign. We also suggest for all players who are just starting out to play on “Story” difficulty first, and encourage you to join our Discord to get help from players and even jump into co-op multiplayer with them as well.


[h3]STEAM DEMO PAGE – SHARE A REVIEW![/h3]
We've opened up a separate Steam Demo page [here] to give YOU the chance to leave a review of the demo and share your feedback.

The feedback we've already received in Frosthaven's Discord and social media channels has been incredible, to say the least, and extremely helpful, and so we'd figured to give you all the chance to leave an official review. 
 
Frosthaven will be a constantly evolving adventure, and your reviews will help us discover even more ways to evolve Frosthaven before it launches in Early Access on PC this year. 
 
Looking forward to reading your all's reviews and feedback. Thank you again for jumping into Frosthaven’s Steam Next Fest Demo!

There is! This new demo will feature plenty of UI and gameplay improvements based on Closed Beta player feedback.

Unlike the Beta, the demo includes voice over narration from Forteller Games, known for the beloved Narrative Companion of the board game. We are thrilled to work with Forteller in helping amplify the game and bring the board game to life even more, and and can’t wait for you to completely experience Forteller’s narration wizardry when the game launches in Early Access. The demo and full game also has NVIDIA GeForce NOW support, so you can stream the demo on virtually any device and anywhere you want!

What languages is the Demo available in?
The demo is available in English as well as many other languages. However, as these game localizations are still work-in-progress, they might be incomplete, and English text will be displayed for certain sections of the game.

Mentioned before, voice over narration from Forteller Games (in English) is available for this demo!

How do I share my feedback? Join our Discord! Feedback can be shared in the ⁠#game-feedback channel.

What do I do if I encounter an issue during the Public Demo?
As this is still a beta build, you may occasionally encounter issues with your game. If you do, please report them in the ⁠#bug-reports ⁠channel on Discord so our teams can track them. If possible, please also report any bugs directly in-game by pressing F10 on your keyboard. Reporting bugs directly in-game is preferred as doing so sends all the bug information we need directly to our development team!
