- Update/patch has been cancelled! - 7 February 2022
Hello people! We are sad to say that after many hours of work and preparation for another patch we have come to a complete halt. Recently we lost another member of our team and we wish the family our full condolences. Since we started this project we have lost 4 team members now and each time it has been more and more difficult to keep this project going. We apologise to anyone who is disappointed and it was never our intention to do this to our fans but under the circumstances it has become impossible to continue this project. We could not even resort to our old backup files because they were damaged 12 months ago from an electrical fault that also destroyed years and years of irreplaceable work. So even if we wanted to continue this ourselves independently we have lost too much data and experienced staff. Sadly some things must come to an end. Therefore, due to our current overhead ru…

From the creators of the World of DASM Spell Quest series and still "Under Construction" we proudly introduce to you "IBT Island".

- So far so good. - 13 July 2019
Hello people! No bugs have been reported since the full release of DASM Spell Quest! Though, before releasing DASM Spell Quest we did go through a lot of painful and time consuming testing and fixed (or patched up), any bugs as we came across them. Please, as a reminder contact us if you come across any issues at all. We are more than happy to take a look at anything that has been reported. Have fun!

Hi people! Yes!.... Today is the day we release DASM Spell Quest from Early Access!. To celebrate our release we currently are selling the software with 40% off!

The visual environment of DASM Spell Quest has an old ancient feel to it but also has a combination of modern technolog…
- No we are not Abandonware! - 5 June 2019
Hello everyone! For some reason a Curator has posted that we are Abandonware. We do realize it had been quite some time since our last post but it would have been courteous if they had of Emailed us or contacted us first to see if this was a fact. We would have been more than happy to reply!! So no, we are not Abandonware and we will attempt to fix any reported bugs or issues if reported. Currently we have not received any Emails or messages on anything that may be buggy or not working correctly. Also, since our release we have not had any complaints. Therefore, everything must be working fine! We will continue to support our product for as long as possible but as always technology changes constantly and some newer hardware may no longer or will not support this software in the future without some form of emulator. Please Email [email protected] or message us here in the community…
- DASM Spell Quest leaving Early Access. (6th June) - 3 June 2019
Hello people! Due to having no major bugs or issues DASM Spell Quest will be leaving early access. It has been 2 years since STEAM was kind enough to release our Software on their platform and we feel its now time to release it, "as is". We have added the most common Questions and Answers below in this post that we have been asked over the past 12 months. Please feel free to message us here in the community forums or email us at [email protected] if you have any further questions or issues. But what if there are still bugs?? Don't panic! We will attempt to fix any bugs that have been reported. We will not abandon our product and will do our best for our customers. Will there be any more expansions/changes? Depending on the popularity we may add extra features. Though, since UDK is no longer supported by Epic Games, it is likely that there will be no further development. This isn't…
- Fix for windows 10 (Save files not saving.) - 4 June 2018
Hi everyone! Thanks to one of my good friends Mr Nikolov (Thanks mate!), has made me aware that DASM Spell Quest or even the save system it uses does not work correctly with Windows 10. Here is what was in the e-mail: Windows 10 users by default have on the system Microsoft .NET Framework 4 or 4.5 and up. But for the save system to work, windows 10 users will have to install, Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 and possibly after that install the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 service pack 1 and the save system will work once more!! Or you can try these links below and follow the instructions: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_install-insiderplat_pc/how-to-instal-net-framework-35-on-windows-10/450b3ba6-4d19-45ae-840e-78519f36d7a4 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/install/dotnet-35-windows-10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHzulOODC2w If you…

The new fixes are here! Hello people! We have uploaded the new patch and we hope this fixes any errors that have been reported. We have created the patch also so it keeps any previous save files that you may have. (This was a real headache!) If you are having any difficulties please Email us at [email protected] Here is the list of fixes. The World of DASM, DASM Spell Quest exe sometimes shows as a possible virus but isn't.

- Patching will happen shortly. (2nd attempt.) [12/02/18] - 12 February 2018
Hi people! The patch is ready to go very soon! Unfortunately when we tried to release the first patch of this type (which was similar), sadly it had a few issues so we had to roll it back to a previous install. When bugs are either found or reported we really do try hard to fix them. Overall we have been extremely fortunate that there are very few bugs found since the release of DASM Spell Quest. Currently we are having difficulties patching DASM Spell Quest because we are trying as hard as possible to create patches that allow players to keep their save files. If this patch fails we will have to consider uploading the software from the beginning again but with all the fixes added. If this does happen we will explain to you how to back up the save files and add them again after reinstall. Thank you for your patients and we hope to have any issues resolved as soon as possible. For now th…
- Another patch to be released soon. [UPDATE 31/01/2018] - 25 January 2018
Good News! The new patch has been completed and is currently being tested. During patching we came across some other "minor" bugs and decided to fix them also. Unfortunately because of this things are taking a little longer than expected. The new patch is quite large and we are trying to compress it so DASM Spell Quest does not have to be fully installed again. If we have to do a full reinstall you may or will lose previous game save files and we don't want that to happen! Thanks to everyone who contacted us at DASM HQ and reported these problems. If you find any bugs at all please post the issue in our forums or Email us at [email protected] If you need to report a bug or problem please provide us with as much information as possible. For example; Name of level, what you were doing at the time, location etc. A list of the reported bugs can be seen here: http://steamcommunity.com…

- Latest Patch and Free Expansion,”DASM Outskirts” is to be released very soon! - 13 December 2017
Hello people how are we? I have some great news for all the DASM fans that emailed us and said that they are half way through the game and have quite a few spelling tokens left in their inventory. If you are not aware DASM Spell Quest allows you to carry a maximum of 100 spelling tokens so you must spend the tokens as you collect them. (There is a chance this may change in the future.) Unfortunately the current problem is even if you do spend your tokens at the shops you will still have a few tokens left over and this has become an issue. Therefore DASM Outskirts has been created to fix this problem. Now the good news is this expansion will be free because of the wonderful feedback from parents, guardians and teachers who use our software. Yes that’s right, just from contacting us and providing us feedback we are happy to please! What does this expansion have to offer? Own your very own…

- Latest patch is now out! - 25 June 2017
Hello people! We have released a second patch to tidy up a few things that were overlooked during testing. Special thanks to everyone that emailed us directly via our website and reported some issues. Wizard hat puzzle would not save. Wizard would always say beware before walking through the tunnel to the city when it is not supposed to and the gates would remain shut. Wizard could be physically seen after saying beware on the other side of the tower instead of disappearing. Added new feature where after the game is patched it won’t restart in a minimized screen. Cleaned up some messy commands and fixed a few save bugs. Fixed the Train Station map where the graphics and lighting was set way too bright or incorrectly and some of the textures were not displaying right. We are currently working on a 3rd patch but this will be quite large and involves changing some of the settings in the DA…

- World of DASM, DASM Spell Quest is here! - 5 June 2017
Hello people! DASM Spell Quest is now ready for release and we are all excited here at DASM HQ. All the fans and educators who have been following us from the start know that this software has evolved over time and has been shaped by the general community, students and yes the teachers! This software was specifically created and designed for students aged between 5 to 12 years old who are struggling to learn the alphabet or spelling words. DASM Spell Quest also helps to form the very basic building blocks for sentence structure, and contains a substantial amount of reading material with full audio and text. Unlike most ABC type software programs DASM Spell Quest is well…a little twisted! It uses a whole new style of teaching and learning techniques to keep users interested. Since this will be an Alpha release we kindly ask the STEAM community to report any bugs or issues if they arise.…
