This release prioritizes onboarding enhancements for new players, introducing a comprehensive, fully redesigned tutorial system alongside new in-game events, an expanded original soundtrack, and extensive visual and interface refinements. Below is a detailed overview of the key updates:
- A complete, end-to-end instructional pathway has been implemented—covering core gameplay elements including map navigation, store interactions, supply station mechanics, and battle settlement procedures—with contextual guidance at every stage.
- The Pig tutorial assistant provides step-by-step instruction via intuitive visual cues (e.g., directional arrows and highlighted UI elements), ensuring clarity and reducing cognitive load.
- A progressive sequence of guided battles enables gradual mastery of fundamental mechanics—including card placement, turn passing, and settlement deployment—reinforcing learning through deliberate practice.
- Full user control over pacing: players may pause, repeat, or skip any section at their discretion, supporting diverse learning preferences.

- Cards with barrier effects now display a distinct, standardized icon upon entering play—improving battlefield readability and strategic transparency.
- Life chips exhibit subtle hover-triggered animation (gentle lift-and-scale effect), introducing lightweight yet meaningful interactivity.
- Select cards receive updated back designs; the main scoreboard artwork has been entirely reimagined with higher-fidelity visuals and cohesive stylistic alignment.
- A Steam Wish List button has been integrated into the main menu interface, enabling one-click wishlist for interested players.
