Special Thanks and Acknowledgements:

Community Support: Your enthusiasm and feedback during the beta were amazing. I especially want to thank Cameron MacMillan also known as 'Parsifal' from the Game Slayers on our Discord server. Not only is he a Game Slayer who knows the game's ins and outs, but he's also a fine musician who composed and recorded the awesome soundtrack you'll hear in the new DLC with his cello!

The Authors:I extend my deepest gratitude to Dave Morris and Jamie Thomson, the brilliant minds behind the original books, and to Paul Gresty, the author of Book 7, The Serpent King's Domain. Paul's work is a remarkable continuation of this esteemed gamebook series, living up to its old-school legacy with excellence.

Fellow Indie Devs: A salute to my fellow indie developers of Terra Randoma, who released their open-world roguelike at the same time as this DLC. We're both in a bundle that's currently a fantastic deal to grab.

Looking Ahead:

This is not the end! I envision at least one major update towards the end of this year or early next year. Stay tuned for more exciting content!

The Serpent King's Domain DLC is now available simultaneously across Steam, Nintendo Switch, and GOG. So go grab it and embark on your next epic adventure!
