Wolflord Halloween Spooky Stream
Celebrating the run-up to the Halloween Launch party, we are doing a live developer stream and play-along :)
Wolflord - Werewolf Online News
The Feast of the Full Moon is starting tonight
The feast is finally upon us, and will launch tonight.
Food and drink items
Feast away on a new item type, taking the old food offerings with them. Food and drink items will give bonus XP boost, either globally or to specific events.
Even better, the food is only consumed if the events triggered, making sure you always get something for your calories.
This is tied to the new XP system that we are rolling out during this event. The new system will reward good and social gameplay, while introducing punitive measures for toxic and AFK players.
Developer stream
Gecko the Developer has started his own stream, making it easier to connect, ask questions and follow the development along. Don't be afraid to say hi.

Experimental decks
Across the event we are unleashing some experimental decks with unique mechanics, so you can explore the world of Wolflord in new ways.
Daily patches
The event will have multiple giveaways, patches and other goodies, so don't be a stranger.
Midsummer is over, next event coming in August
Ah, our third seasonal event, the Murderous Midsummer, is now over, and we thank you all for celebrating it with us.
It introduced new roles, items, mechanics, and loot, and it came with it a solid number of new playtesters.
Murderous Midsummer will be a recurring event and will return next year as well. We are also hosting a new event in August, more details to follow.
This means Solaris will stop dropping starting tonight, but the Solaris Market will remain open for a little while yet.
But first, we would like to highlight the top changes that were completed during the Midsummer event:
+ The OKAMI joins the game roster (Wolf Attacker)
+ The SANDMAN joins the game roster (Town Specialist)
+ The KNIGHT joins the game roster (Town Defender)
+ The BANSHEE joins the game roster (Wolf Support)
+ The CORPSE BRIDE joins the game roster (Chaos Killer).
+ The ARCANIST joins the game roster (Town Investigator)
+ The WYVERN joins the game roster (Chaos Attacker)
+ The GHOUL joins the game roster (Chaos Specialist)
+ The PANDORA joins the game roster (Chaos specialist)
+ New house rule: SETTING SUN ()
+ New house rule: Gehenna (When a player is turned into a Werewolf during play, they are turned into a random Wolf Attacker instead).
+ TORTURER has been reworked, the same concept, just more detailed.
+ PUMPKIN KING underwent a series of revisions.
Another big thing we are working on is the card editor, which will be in full focus this weekend. It will allow players to submit their own cards to the world of Wolflord, and to share and experiment with the mechanics. It's still a bit away before it's ready for public use, but we are crunching to get it out there.
We are ramping up playtesting events, so it is now around 3 times per week. If you want more information, feel free to join our Discord Community (Invite can be found within the client.)

Egg-strordinary Easter Approaches
This weekend and the week to follow we are celebrating Easter and the Passover while sending our best wishes to everyone stuck at home during this maddening time.
We will be celebrating with content, giveaways and special unlockables.
We will celebrate with a new unlockable for the next 9 days.
The first bit of content will drop tonight at 1900 CET.
The event will close on the 20th of April, but you get to keep any loot gathered permenently.
We are looking forward to playing with you :)
Rebranding, quarrantine and progress
Greetings fellow players, I hope you are staying safe out there.
The past couple of months have been very strange. Not only because the virus sweeping the globe, but also because we have been fighting a legal battle with an American entity for the rights to keep our brand name.
Sadly, the cost of this battle is so staggering, it has overshadowed the cost going into this game, and I have had to make the hard call to surrender for my part and change brand before this battle would drive my little project to the ground.
A new brand is coming today, and the rollout will be as swift as possible, we just need to secure some domain names and trademarks first.
We are still keeping our iconic logo and the playable Direwolf role card.
On the plus side, due to the Corona breakout, starting from this week I suddenly have many more hours of spare time on my hands. Hours that I will do my best to pour into this project and make it shine.
I know the client still has its kinks, and the server definitely has some bad days, but with more time on my hands and more playtests, I'm sure we can work something out.
This means, from Monday to Thursday, there will be playtesting EACH DAY starting at 1900 CET, and giveaways to boot.
During the weekend, we will have some tests spread out as well.
Finally, but definitely not least, the card workshop is coming soon. We are making the last tweaks to make sure the game clients can handle and understand them.
As soon as it is ready for testing, we will let some experimental cards out. Design guidelines and documentation on how to make wholesome cards are on their way.
In the meantime, I hope you are all staying safe out there, and I hope to play with you all soon.
