Celebrate the Lunar New Year with an ancient hero’s armor and a GIVEAWAY!

“…but, just as we were about to leave, the faint glow from the moon danced across the tomb entrance.” Excerpt from Famed Explorer Joseph Billingsworth’s Memoirs


Far from the bustling Lunar New Year festivities held in Parid, an incredible discovery was made: an ancient tomb of a long-forgotten hero!

This righteous hero, who was fiercely loyal to Farhul and his friends, was said to have worn legendary armor that could hold control over evil spirits and strike fear into those not pure-of-heart.

With the re-discovered armor waiting for a new owner, will you gather two allies and take up the mantle and bring peace to Farhul once more? The FREE Dynasty Cosmetic Pack is available to download now!



It’s dangerous to go alone… Bring friends!

We’re giving 6 people the chance to WIN For The King, so don’t miss the chance to bring your friends in on the action!

Just jump on Twitter, tweet at @IronOakGames and tag two friends who you’d love to join your next adventure, and we’ll award 3 random groups of players with Steam codes.

The Fahrul Christmas Creature Competition HAS ENDED!

“…The End.”

The crowd gathered around the campfire stared in stunned silence, as the storyteller sat back down; their heads swimming with the images of the creatures they had just heard about.



Greetings!

We’d like to send a massive thank you to the whole For The King community for sending in your awesome, creative and downright scary Fahrul Christmas Creatures for our recent competition.

We had so many entries across Twitter and Discord that it made picking 3 winners very difficult…

However, we have reached our decision!
In no particular order:


[h3]WINNER 1[/h3]


Our first winner is Mango with their terrifying Frightful Fir!

Seeing this creation fully realised in 3d was terrifying! They had done such a great job it was almost like they had plucked this beast straight from the game itself!


[h3]WINNER 2[/h3]


Our second winner is Scourge with their epic tale of 3 brave heroes battling Winter’s fury!

This brilliant story really captured the feel of Fahrul and kept us hooked until the end - We also loved your creative rhyming!


[h3]WINNER 3[/h3]


Our third and final winner is Lvl 1 Sweaty Nerd with the scary (yet adorable) Yule Cat Scourge!

With lovely art, an accompanying story and ideas about item drops, world effects and battle – you really pulled out all the stops with this one!


Thank you again to everyone who entered the competition and make sure to keep your eyes peeled for more fun community contests coming soon!

WIN For The King merch by designing a Fahrul Christmas Creature

Winter has finally reached Farhul.

During these long winter nights, friends and families tend to gather around campfires and tell each other tales to pass the time – Some tales of jolly, red-suited men, but others…
…of monsters.


This Winter we’re challenging the whole For The King community to design their own Fahrul Christmas Creature.

Whether you plan to submit an artistic interpretation of Fahrul’s version of Krampus, a short story involving a mimic disguised as a present or an in-game stat-block for an evil piece of coal - We want to see what devilish ideas you can come up with in whatever form you’d like!

We’ll be making a list of the entries (and we’ll be checking it twice!) so we can pick 3 lucky winners who will each receive:
  • An engraved For The King pewter tankard
  • A custom For The King playmat
  • An embossed For The King notepad
  • An official For The King Art Book


How do I enter?

Simply share an image/text/link of your Fahrul Christmas Creature with us on Twitter using #FTKCreature and make sure to follow the official Iron Oak Twitter

OR

Post an image/text/link of your Christmas Creature in our official For The King Discord in the #fan-arts channel using #FTKCreature


We’ll be looking for the perfect Christmas Creature that strikes the right balance between festive ferocity and spine-tingling seasonal dread - Bonus points for creativity and thinking outside the box!


The competition closes on midnight GMT on the 5th January.


Best of luck, adventurers!

Celebrate the Steam Awards and the Autumn Sale with For The King!

The Steam Awards have arrived, and we’d love your vote to help nominate ‘For The King’ for the Labor of Love Award!
In the last year we released the Lost Civilization Adventure Pack, which teleported you to the lost Jungle Falls realm and introduced two new characters, the glory-seeking Gladiator, and the wise Astronomer. We also released three free cosmetics packs - Cyclops, Ninja and Goblin - to add some additional style choices for your journey… and there were even some spooky Halloween masks for frightful adventurers!



It has been incredible to see so many new players set out on their adventures in Fahrul over the last year and we are incredibly humbled by your support. We hope you can take a moment to nominate ‘For The King’ in the Labor of Love category for this year’s Steam Awards!

Now is the perfect time to plan an adventure in Fahrul, with 66% OFF the base game as part of the Steam Autumn Sale! Follow this link to find out more.

Worry not, seasoned adventurers! Owners of the base game can get 25% OFF the incredible Lost Civilization Adventure Pack DLC instead!

Best of luck adventurers!

Get in the Halloween ‘Spirit’ with these NEW Masks



The nights have grown longer, creatures stir in the darkness, and a mysterious mask merchant has been spotted wondering around Farhul…

“Farhul has met with a terrible fate, hasn’t it?”

Locals report that this creepy man is offering to sell 3 peculiar masks to whoever has the misfortune to run into him.

Don one of these three mysterious masks with this FREE Halloween cosmetic update, available to download now!



Beastman Mask:

At a glimpse, a passer-by might mistake you for an actual beastman with this on, if it weren’t for the lack of stench.

This ugly mask is sure to give the locals a good fright this Halloween.



Triclops Mask:

This life-like Triclops mask is quite intimidating to look at – Not so much atop your tiny body though…
Your friends won’t know which set of eyes to look at when you wear this mask.



Owlbear Mask:

It’s amazing to think that someone survived long enough with an Owlbear to capture its likeness in this mask.

Show off your ferocious nature with this mask.
