The Riese Project Prologue for Free!

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Dear Players,

Our game is about uncovering mysteries. For our team, these discoveries are multi-dimensional. We've just discovered that "free" is a great price! :) :) :)

Yes, yes - many of you knew this already, but well, we have our flaws, and some obvious things take a while to sink in. Anyway, better late than later, and:

We have great news for you! We've decided that The Riese Project Prologue will be available for free. We want more people to join our mysterious adventure and share their feedback to help us work on the full version.

From the beginning, we treated the prologue as an introduction to the full version and a way to communicate with you. We regularly add new updates that show what we're working on. The prologue is our little dialogue between us and you, the players, and we want as many people as possible to participate.

Dear Player - if you bought the game earlier, you are a superhero! Without you, we wouldn't be here. We plan to prepare special bonuses for you as a thank you (and no, they won't just be virtual hugs, although those are also valuable!). We'll share more details soon.

The change to free status will happen soon, pending approval from Steam. Keep an eye out, because free fun is coming!

Add The Riese Project Prologue to your wishlist on Steam so you don't miss any updates and news!

Thank you for your support, smiles, and feedback!
