[h2]About Never Split the Party[/h2]
Never Split the Party is an ultra social rogue-like! You're one of four adventurers entering an epic dungeon to take down the evil vampire known only as The Countess, who killed your parents and is now constantly bombarding you with insults.

Explore a procedurally generated dungeon, amass powerful upgrades, and cooperate with your fellow adventures to conquer and crush the vile dungeon bosses!

Never Split the Party has over 120 upgrades, 21 magical potions, 28 unique enemies, and over 425 room designs spread among 5 procedurally generated dungeon levels for maximum replayability!

[h3]Roles[/h3]
Each player has both a role and a character class.

The four unique roles in the game each provide vital info to the party.
- The Cartographer tracks the dungeon maps.
- The Treasurer tracks each players inventory.
- The Vitalist tracks each players health.
- The Loremaster tracks all knowledge of the upgrades.

If you were to be split from the party, say through an Skeleton Wizard's teleportation or a Punter that knocks you into the next room, then everyone else would lose access to your roles vital info until you're reunited.

[h3]Classes[/h3]
You'll also get to choose your character class. The Fighter and Cleric classes are available for everyone (so that you can always play with your friends).

Access to the other classes as well as Challenge Modes (including PvP) and Bonus Armor and Helmet Cosmetics are available with the Fellowship Unlock.

[h2]About Legend Studio[/h2]
Founded in 1992, Legend Studio is an independent game developer, creating games such as Dragon Forge, Never Split the Party, A Legend of Luca VR, and FreeCell Quest.

Inspired by the wildly successful Among Us, we couldn't help but add a new Intrigue of Werewolves game mode to Never Split the Party.

It has support for up to 16 players in a Heroes vs Werewolves game mode. Instead of doing random tasks the Heroes can clear the dungeon and beat the boss, so you get to enjoy the satisfying core combat and exploration of the Never Split the Party gameplay while having the same exciting backstabbing intrigue game. Dungeon maps are randomly generated for infinite replayability and several extra locked treasure rooms have been added to quickly upgrade your characters with interesting new abilities.

The new game mode is 100% free to play, so you can always easily invite all of your friends and have a great game.

Download the new build and give it a shot! Please send feedback to the discord channel.

With this new build we've improved our dedicated server support. We finally have a stable Linux server and so we've added new dedicated servers for the west coast of the US and in Europe! This should result in lower ping times and improved game stability for everyone.

Also the dedicated server has been programmed to restart periodically when not in use so that players will no longer get kicked off for daily restarts and updates. In a rogue-like game it's very important not to stop a server mid-run. With the new build this will no longer be an issue as the servers will only restart when not in use.

The Dedicated Server Setup Guide is now available.

Lowered Key Drop Rate
Increased Coin Drop Rate
Adjusted Boss Health Levels
Updated game engine version to 2019.4.1f1
Console mouse wheel scrolling now works.
Linux dedicated server
Dedicated server auto update & restarts
