THANK YOU // Expanded Demo Coming Up Soon

Greetings fellow rulers!

We wanted to take a moment to just say - THANK YOU! 🎉

The last two weeks were packed with lots of new players, valuable feedback and love from all over the world. A few days ago we passed the one hour mark for the median play time and are still holding onto it - in other words, half of the players played the demo for at least one full hour. Isn't that crazy? We still have to wrap our heads around that and are extremely grateful that the demo has gotten this much positive feedback ❤️

However, this flood of new players wouldn't have been possible without the help of all the amazing people who featured the game. In the past two weeks, videos in all sorts of languages including English, Japanese, Spanish, Indonesian, Portuguese, Polish and Russian have popped up and introduced the game to lots of new people. Without all this amazing support, we wouldn't be where we are now ❤️

And all that although the current demo - from our perspective - merely scratches the surface of what is going to be in the full game. As of right now, combat has been introduced already in the demo but with only a single unit available it doesn't display the strategic decisions one has over the tide of battle at all.

While we originally wanted to avoid rushing through progression too quickly and preserve the feeling of discovery for the full release, we also realized that many players wanted a deeper look into the strategic side of combat already.

That's why we'll introduce an expanded demo which will include additional units, more enemy variety, deeper combat automation and more tactical decision-making overall - while still leaving a lot more to discover in the full game. Also, you get access to two more systems and lots of new content for the existing ones! On top of that, we are working on improvements all over the board based on the feedback we collected.

This way, you can enjoy the game a bit more before it will be fully released and get a much better understanding of what you can expect from the full game. Even beyond the expanded demo, there will still be lots of new content and systems left to discover in the full game. With the new systems included, that's still only around half of what the full game has to offer.

Thanks again for everything and stay tuned for when the expanded demo will drop in around 2-3 weeks!

See you in your Next Reign!
