Update from September 6, 2026

Exo's CYOA · published 6 Sep 2026, 15:21 UTC · build 25153302

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

This update improves quest direction, healing and rest mechanics, party member cards, and the generation of adventure choices.Adventure Choices

  • The next steps the game offers you are now grounded in your actual surroundings: available actions, active quests, and backpack items are prioritized when generating options

  • Options can now include longer-term plans, not just immediate actions

  • Creative, out-of-the-box choices are more likely to appear when the situation calls for them

Quest Objectives

  • Quest objectives are now more stable — they act as strategic guides rather than resetting every turn

  • Objectives now merge with new information instead of being replaced wholesale, keeping your long-term quest direction consistent

Rest & Recovery

  • Resting heals noticeably more, for both short rests and a proper night's sleep.

  • Injuries and wear now visibly improve as you recover — a good rest sheds "severely" qualifiers, and a meaningful rest clears major negative conditions instead of just ticking numbers up.

  • Resting in dangerous or hostile places is now less effective, capping out at a minor recovery.

  • Critical hits deal slightly less damage, and regular heals restore a bit more, keeping fights closer to the balance they should be.

Party Member Cards

  • Character role class (e.g. "Warrior", "Mage") is now displayed directly on the party member card instead of the active/inactive status

The combat system is also currently being overhauled. However, these changes did not make it into the current release.
