Hi Royals!

I hope you're having a nice Summer Sale. All our games are 40% off, just so you know. Anyway, that's not why I'm here.

We just updated the game with another quickpatch. We're trying to get the game as stable as possible for the console port. I think we're getting there. If you find anymore bugs, please let us know on our Discord!

Changelog for v1.622b:

[ERGO] Added a message that says "hold ALT to force aiming" at the bottom of the screen when hovering over other actions besides moving.
[BUGFIX] A black pawn promoting into a king no long crashes the game.
[BUGFIX] You can no longer inspect other gamemodes after selecting a gamemode.
[BUGFIX] Meeting with a spy no longer consumes its spy status, so that it can now still promote into a black piece afterwards.

That's it for this one!
Long live the king and stay hydrated!

So here's a new patch that fixes all that! We also found out that there was an issue with our engine, where one of the libraries it uses would fail to do its job properly on computers with an ARM…Game update19 Jun 2026Patch Notes for v1.622: BugfixesHello Royals! It's been a little while since the last patch, and only a few minor bugs were reported in that time, so we figured we'd fix those and hopefully be done with this update! If you find anymore bugs, please let us know in our Discord! Otherwise, 'til the next one!
