What awaits you in the new chapter?

  1. Due to the illness of Vislan Gatskolka, Gradnar is led by his daughter, Balitza. But will she be able to hold on to power? Only you can answer that question.

In addition to the new chapter, work has been done on the save system and bug fixes. Below is a list of the main changes.

Fixes:

  • Fixed a bug that allowed players to spend more personal money than was available in the briefcase.

  • Reworked some sound effects and reduced the volume of certain menu sounds.

  • Fixed an issue where settings could fail to save.

  • Fixed a bug that allowed stat manipulation in some cases when exiting dialogues.

  • Fixed an issue where, after returning to the game from the menu, an incorrect visitor character could appear.

Changes and Additions:

  • Added a warning about flashing effects and loud sounds, as well as a disclaimer about offensive content (shown once on first launch).

  • Added save slots and the ability to delete saves. You can now have multiple saves, including simultaneous playthroughs of different chapters.

  • If you had previous saves, they will be moved to the first slot.

  • The new chapter features its own achievements and endings. Each ending has unique music. The illustration at the end of the new chapter has also been updated.
