- Hotfix v1.0.11 - 21 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! Today's patch includes several fixes and small adjustments. We still have quite a bit more on the list, but we didn't want to hold off as there are quite a few already included and it just makes the current experience nicer. Changed all "Completed Quests" passive Prestige Upgrades to show a plus instead of a star to match with other similar Upgrades Increased Market restock to 500% of the original speed to make it usable more frequently Increased all Market stock by 100% except Animals to be able to trade larger amounts at once Increased Animal space by +5 for each Animal type that is currently accessible. This also gets rid of not obtaining a new Animal type after fulfilling its prerequisites for the first time because space is full Potion recipe buttons in the Alchemy menu now display potion costs when hovering Adjusted Lich (big, blue fire skeleton) attack an…
- Hotfix v1.0.10 - 16 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! This patch hunts down some of the remaining small issues you brought to our attention. Let's get to it. Fixed a bug where buttons would display a Magic cost of 50000 but were checking for 99999 and therefore would only be enabled after reaching 99999 Fixed a bug where Expedition Relics stats would depend on currently selected Units even when it was changed after the Expedition was started. If there is an Expedition already running when you load your save, this will be possible only once more to avoid issues and then behave as intended Fixed an issue that allowed to accumulate infinite amounts of Prosperity Changed Crystal Shards to be a little less valuable in trading to be able to acquire them quicker through Trading Ships
- Hotfix v1.0.9 - Magic Cap Adjustments - 11 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! The recent patches did some changes to the maximum storage within the game. However, Magic capacity has been untouched. This patch aligns Magic capacity more with the regular storage. Also, it includes some general fixes and adjustments. Decreased second "Mana Crystal Capacity" costs Added third "Mana Crystal Capacity" Upgrade Drastically increased amount of max Magic per Magic Crystal per default Drastically increased amount of max Magic per "Magic Crystal Capacity" Upgrade Flattened Magic Crystal costs curve from 50% increase to 30% Capped any Magic cost to never exceed 50,000 Added starting option for opengl3 on Windows to handle GPU related crashes thanks to some engine bug (again) when no dedicated GPU is being used Added additional handling when saving/loading settings to prevent crashes Fixed an issue where multi-queue using LShift didn't work when indivi…
- Hotfix v1.0.8 - Unlock Hints - 9 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! We are here for you with yet another update. Let's dive in! Added functionality to make the game remember the window size whenever it was closed while being windowed (not maximized!) to remember its size for the next start Changed saving to be more robust Changed loading to go through backups when there is an issue loading the current save state Raised additional housing space by the "Housing Research" in the University to end the game at a total of 550 Workers when all related Upgrades are purchased Removed the Tree Resin cost from the "Cut the Bark" Upgrade for Lumberjacks to collect Tree Resin and adjusted unlock conditions for that Upgrade to make it less missable Fixed the "Royal Mortar Enhancement Cap" Upgrade costs Besides these general changes, we spent quite some time trying to make it more visible which Upgrades/Quests/etc. unlock something new. There…
- Hotfix v1.0.7 - Late Game Menus & Various - 7 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! It has been another busy day on our side. Again, we've collected new feedback and made adjustments accordingly. General: Visual adjustments to various icons and environment objects' sprites Changed how unlocked menus are registered to prevent a bug that makes Prestige Upgrades never purchasable Fixed an issue where having some auto Quests enabled and starting Main Quest 15 or 20 would cause severe issues with wrong units spawning in the cave or the dragon spawning in town Decreased butchering time for all Animals by roughly 60%, allowing butchering to keep up with higher breeding output, ultimately allowing higher Meat output We've received quite some feedback that two of the in the late game available menus lack feedback. We agreed and thus present you a whole bunch of improvements: Festival Worker selection buttons' font will be displayed in red when not suffi…
- Hotfix v1.0.6 - Gold Ore/Bar Rebalancing & More - 6 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! It's been a few days since release and we are super stoked to see how many people enjoy the game! It's something we really didn't expect and we are extremely grateful for everyone of you playing the game. Cheers to you! In regards to that, the game was exposed to a much bigger audience which finally gave us a good base for gathering more valuable feedback. This time, the patch targets some of the midgame balancing regarding Gold - something that ended up feeling a little bit like a show stopper. Many of you perceived the introduction of Gold Ore/Bars as a very grindy phase and after we played this part of the game again we have to agree. After playing the game over and over again, it looks like we lost a bit the feeling for this particular section of the game. This patch makes a lot of changes to Upgrades and similar that require Gold Ore/Bars and adjust a few o…
- Hotfix v1.0.5 - Linux Crash Issues - 6 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! Due to the amazing help of one of our players - felix.rostrum - we were finally able to consistently reproduce a crash issue exclusive to Linux! Huge shoutout to them! When scrolling through lists using the mouse wheel at high speeds, sometimes the tooltip ended up displaying under the mouse. At times, when the mouse was hovering over the resource then, it would create an engine bug that leads to a crash without any additional info in the logs. Thankfully, we were able to find a solution which made this crash not appear even after recreating the same situation several times! As such, Linux players should finally experience no crashes anymore when scrolling through lists. Thanks again for the help! We hope you can continue to enjoy the game a bit more now :)
- Hotfix v1.0.4 - 6 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! This one is just featuring a few fixes, let's keep it concise. Fixed an issue that would cause infinite worker creation when saving and loading while refunding is ongoing Fixed an issue where Upgrades would sometimes take more than 99,999 of a resource although displaying otherwise Fixed an issue where Magic extraction would show long decimal numbers after selecting the Mana Capacitor Relic Changed how combat difficulty applies based on the selected difficulty; adjusted easy difficulty based on the new calculation, lowering the difficulty overall a bit more
- Hotfix v1.0.3 - Expedition Units and Endgame Storage - 5 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! We received more feedback and therefore keep improving the game as much as we can. First of all, there is one bugfix: Fixed an issue with Units on Expeditions getting stuck and never returning If you have Units stuck on Expeditions from a save file prior to version 1.0.3: Wait for all Expeditions to finish if any are running and do not auto-start them or start a single Expedition if none are running. Once the last Quest finishes, your Units will be recovered. Also, in the last patch we introduced changes to the max storage to make it easier to idle during early/midgame. However, the patch just shifted the curve more to the beginning of the game and made your storage grow rather quickly and then towards endgame make it move very slowly as it still went towards the final 99,999 max cap. Also, Glory and Favor still could have been rather small due to storage limita…
- Hotfix v1.0.2 - Storage Curve Changes - 4 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! This is another patch to address mainly one big issue: storage limitations. While it was initially planned as a tool guide players into a direction when it might be necessary to prestige, it ultimately ended up just feeling like an artificial blocker for many. Of course this is not what we intended and therefore we did drastic changes to how much storage you have and how it carries over. In detail, that's: Warehouse costs curve was flattened, making it overall a lot cheaper later on and allowing to build more warehouses sooner Warehouse upgrades costs curves were flattened allowing to increase storage sooner All prestige upgrades regarding storage have been boosted to increase overall storage at the earlier half of the game drastically Starting storage has been increased to not force prestige due to storage limitations in the beginning Any warehouse ever built w…
- Hotfix v1.0.1 - 4 September 2026
Greetings fellow rulers! We've been carefully reading all your comments. As such, we've prepared a patch to address several issues that popped up. Also, it includes a few suggested improvements. Added the functionality to hold and click crafting buttons to adjust queue quicker; added a LCTRL +100 modifier Added the functionality to free Tier 1 Units Fixed damage/heal numbers to use the right font regardless of selected language Fixed several typos Fixed an issue where tooltips displayed behind the regular UI when closing the Prestige Preview through pressing Escape Fixed University Research levels to carry over the correct level progress instead of only 1. If you've encountered this issue, prestiging again will fix it Changed prestige point progress bars to show a crown once they are completed to cause less confusion The added features for crafting and unit deletion are already present…

- Demo v0.3 - Release Demo is finally here! - 21 August 2026
Greetings fellow rulers!We're super excited to share big news with you - development is going well and we are checking off one thing after another. The release is already in less than two weeks (!) and we want to finally give the demo some love again. This update contains a huge number of changes and fixes, but we don't want to go through them all in detail. Instead, here are three things we want to highlight.FRESH UIUI changed... A LOT. The bottom box which used to display bookmarks and other sorts of infos was replaced by a book which makes for a much nicer display. Also, this is its sole purpose now. The overview of depleting resources was shifted to the resource panel on the left - whenever you hover over it, the UI expands and shows a new button which can be used to filter resources for ones that are depleting or low on stock. The UI scaling changed as well, allowing us to make it…
