Hey again Talisman fans! ːBlueTalismanː

We’re three months into 2022, and we’ve released 4 shiny new Legendary Decks for Talisman: Digital Edition, ran an AMA over on r/Talisman and we’re working on a Fury of Dracula: Digital Edition update!

We’ve also just launched a survey following the release of the Legendary Decks, to get a better idea of what people want from Talisman: Digital Edition in the future. If you fill it in, not only will we think you’re really cool, but you’ll be actively helping make Talisman: Digital Edition a better game!

Fill in the survey here.

But enough of what we’ve been up to, it’s time to go over the questions we got sent in this month!

From TheSteamPlayer

“l love your games all together, but l find extremely stupid that you can not put in-game saves to your looooooooooooong looooooong lasting games eg. the Fighting Fantasy legends.

They are very awesome looking, but l can't feel any fancy to sit at them for a day long at a stretch. PLEASE CREATE A SAVE OPPURTINITY in them. For me. :)) I really don't have fancy to start it again and again and again...!

So the good news is that all our Fighting Fantasy games have an autosave feature! If you close out of the game and relaunch it, the game will remember where you were up to in your adventure!

We appreciate that people don’t want to sit down for a long time when playing a game all the time (we still remember the days of playing PlayStation 1 games without a memory card) which is why all of our games that run for a long time offer some form of automatic saving.

From Tom

“Where are the physical releases for the console versions of Talisman? I want the PS4 one to put on my shelf.”

While we’d love to release physical versions of all of our games, the logistics involved with printing disks, getting cases, printing covers and manuals and then actually shipping the games everywhere they need to go is too much for a company of our size! There’s also a range of different approvals that each store front asks you to go through that is different to the approval process we’ve already got to grips with recently.

We know that there are companies that do limited print runs of games as special editions, which would be much more feasible for us. If there’s enough demand for a super shiny version of Talisman: Digital Edition on console, let us know and we’ll do some reaching out!

From MagicWizard

“Why do you make things like the Legendary Decks when you know people are more excited for expansions? I want something that actually changes the game and doesn’t just leave it feeling the same but a bit harder.

This is one of the reasons we’re doing our Legendary Deck feedback survey! We know that a lot of people have asked for new kinds of content for Talisman, but before we get started on something we need to make sure that there’s enough of a demand for it there in the first place!

So if you want to see new things, let us know!

From Patrick

“If Nomad are bringing Catan to just consoles and not PC, does that mean you’re getting out of the PC game business?

We most definitely are not! PC is where we’re most comfortable, where we’re most confident and where we know a lot of our fans are. As we’ve said above, there’s a whole lot of different steps that we need to go through to release games on console.

With Catan, we’re working with the lovely folk at Dovetail Games as our publisher, which means they’ll be helping out with all the technical stuff when it comes to submitting, approving and everything else related to store fronts. Without them, it’d be a daunting task for sure!

And that’s the end of this edition of the Nomad monthly mailbag! Thanks to everyone who sent in questions, and don’t forget to send your questions to [email protected] if you want us to answer your burning questions next month! ːheartː

Hi again Talisman fans! ːblueTalismanː

We've just gone live over on r/Talisman for an AMA to celebrate the launch of the 4 new Legendary Decks. The whole team will be answering questions, from the programmers and developers, to the designers and the art team.

So come along and ask us questions!

We've even bought some cats along, as is Reddit tradition.

Hello once again Talisman fans!

Today we’ve officially launched four new Legendary Decks for Talisman: Digital Edition! You can find the full patch notes for this update here.

Specifically crafted for the experienced Talisman player, these decks replace the normal adventure deck from each expansion. When you swap out the adventure deck for an expansion with the Legendary version, the monsters you face pose more of a challenge, and help is harder to come by. If you want to know more about how we crafted these new decks, you can check out our design deep-dive!

We know that our first batch of Legendary Decks were well received by the Talisman: Digital Edition community, and these 4 expansions were the ones most requested to get the Legendary treatment!

If you want to grab all the Legendary Decks we've released so far, you can get a discount by buying them in the Legendary Deck Collection. This is a 'Complete Your Collection' bundle too, so if you've already bought the first 4 decks you'll still grab a tasty discount!

Want to know more about each Legendary Deck before you take on this new challenge? We’ve got you covered!

[h2]The City Expansion: Legendary Deck[/h2]

One of the most popular expansions for Talisman, The City Expansion was by far the most requested Legendary Deck. We’re excited for players to take to the mean streets of this rebalanced expansion, and see if they can survive!

[h2]The Sacred Pool Expansion: Legendary Deck[/h2]

Another highly requested deck, The Sacred Pool Expansion focuses heavily on your alignment and has a range of creatures, spells and other cards that change effects based on your alignment.

[h2]The Blood Moon Expansion: Legendary Deck[/h2]

Adding the wandering Werewolf to the game was always the main draw of The Blood Moon Expansion, but with the Legendary Deck version, now there’s even more to draw you in! The creatures that go bump in the night will now bump you even harder, and the days grow shorter and shorter…

[h2]The Frostmarch Expansion: Legendary Deck[/h2]

We might be heading out of winter finally, but the cold just keeps coming with the Legendary version of the Frostmarch! Featuring a host of changes to the enemies, encounters and strangers who want to come in from the cold, this Legendary Deck offers more challenge whenever you play with this expansion.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1690080/Talisman__The_Frostmarch_Expansion_Legendary_Deck/

Please note that just as with the first Legendary Decks we released, you’ll need to own the original expansion in order to play with these new decks. For example, in order to play with the The Blood Moon Expansion Legendary Deck, you’ll first need to own The Blood Moon Expansion in order to swap it out!

Don’t forget to stay tuned to our Facebook, Twitter and Discord for announcements, insights and more from the Nomad games team!
