With so many decisions bouncing around your brain at any given moment, a cluttered UI or dizzyingly busy screen can quickly lead to your demise. That's why I love the minimalist approach of Thronefall, which uses clear delineation, bold colors, and a surprisingly cozy vibe to make everything simple. The game's just got even better, as the last content update is here with even more ways to play. Read the rest of the story... RELATED LINKS: Minimalist strategy battler Thronefall hits full launch with massive update Stunning strategy game Thronefall is leaving Early Access very soon Gorgeous strategy game Thronefall is about to get pricier ahead of 1.0 Update 2.11Feb 3, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsDear Queens and Kings, This update brings 12 new mini-modes, such as the long awaited True Endless mode where you go up against an (almost) endless amount of waves on just one map or the Reverse Siege mode where you are the attacker. There are new quality of life features, such as a game-speed hotkey, automatic detection of controller versus keyboard controls, support for some additional controller devices, bug fixes and color-blindness settings. We also added support for 4 new languages: Korean, Italian, Ukrainian and Czech! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43325109/11a9daf8ece8d266096ddd3cd85133b3321d185e.jpg 12 New Mini Modes! Mini-modes are very difficult, often almost puzzle-like, bonus challenges with modified rules that heavily mix up the gameplay. We initially had only 15 of them (for the levels we had at the time). Now we're delivering the remaining 12! Mini-Modes are now always accessible, even before completing the main campaign, however we highly recommended that you complete the campaign before playing any mini-modes due to their often very high difficulty! Every mini-mode is different and has unique rules to explore. Remember that completing mini-modes is entirely optional and does not grant achievements. They're little gameplay experiments we made to explore the untapped potential of the game and to provide some additional end-game content for those who already know the game inside out. There are a few new mini-modes that we'd love to highlight here... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43325109/eb8f47331acacf792bcd6e130cdd2afe23f2be9e.png True Endless This is a mini-mode for Totend where you go up against an almost enless amount of random enemy waves. As opposed to the Eternal Trials mode, in this mode you stay on Totend only and the only way for the game to end is for you to lose or surrender. There are new tier 4 Castle Center upgrades as well as additional upgrades for some other buildings, that are only available in this mode! This has been the most requested mode since we launched and we're excited to finally deliver "something" that goes beyond what Eternal Trials already offers. We put a lot of work into it, but we're also aware it's not as built-out as it could be. Yes, it'd be even cooler with more maps, more upgrades and so on. However we're slowly moving on to new projects so we had to make a cut somewhere. It is meant as a way for you to scratch that true endless itch, but in the most straightforward implementation we could find. It's a mini-mode! It's quite cool. Give it a go! :) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43325109/695556b029f362692b9e8db4678882bcf625014e.png Reverse Siege In the reverse siege mode, you are the attacker on Freifort. Rally your troops, raid your opponent's base and take out their castle center if you can. You gain gold by destroying economy buildings. You destroy all enemy buildings by destroying the castle center. This is the only mode where you can not regenerate any of your health. If you run out of health, the night is immediately over...UPDATE 2.06Oct 23, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsDear Queens and Kings, Thank you all for the warm reception of Thronefall’s 1.0 release. In this update we address the most urgent bits of your feedback from the last couple of days. Most notably we restructured Totend (the last level) and its bossfight. Before the update only a very few strategies were feasible to beat the level, making it feel quite frustrating to try anything else in consequence (sorry!). We also improved the balancing hotfix for the Moorweg (swamp level) we released quickly after 1.0 release to make the fight more interesting instead of just easier. Besides that we fixed a couple of smaller issues, such as the MacOS version freezing when tabbing out of fullscreen. You can find the full patch notes below. Thank you all again for all the kind words and thoughtful feedback! We’re so happy to see you all enjoy our little game so much, it really makes our day (week, month and year!). All the best, Jonas & Paul If you like to connect with fellow Thronefall players, join our discord: https://discord.gg/gVYctptyg8 P.S.: Yes, we know that we screwed up the versioning names (whoops). Thronefall’s initial early access version was named 1.0 internally, so that’s why this update is called 2.06. _____________________ FULL PATCHNOTES 2.06: Moorweg Boss Fight Balancing Rework First this boss fight was too hard, then we uploaded a temporary quick fix that made the boss a lot easier. Now, here comes the higher quality (hopefully permanent) fix, with a couple of reworks to make it feel like a fairer fight: - Elara switches back and forth between the fire tornado and her fire ranged attack (instead of both being active at all times) which allows you to better dodge the tornado with proper unit micro. - Elara has some more health again and all of her attacks deal more damage (similar to how it was to begin with but additionally compensating for the additional downtime of her attacks). Totend - Removed the double forges. While it came with a lot of upsides and cool power creep, it also felt quite gimmicky and made a lot of strategies depend way too much on the forge upgrades. Removing the duplicates should restore the balance, make the level feel more "normal" and allow for a wider variety of different strategies. - Wave 13: Quicksling count reduced 40 to 20, Ram count increased from 0 to 20 Totend Final Boss Balancing Rework - The attack waves of the first boss stage can no longer be skipped. The boss briefly becomes invulerable while transitioning to the next attack location. - The flying form loses some health while puking. - When transitioning from flying to ground stage, the ground boss has a minimum spawn distance from the castle center now. - The health of the grounded boss is reduced to 66666 (down from 300000) to make up for the lack of double forge and to allow for more different strategies. - The health of clones is reduced to 1250 (down from 1500) to make up for the lack of double forge. - The boss on the ground no longer spawns clones...Thronefall - Errichtet und verteidigt euer Königreich auf PC und Nintendo SwitchOct 12, 2024 - pressakey.comEin klassisches Strategiespiel befreit von unnötiger Komplexität, kombiniert mit einer ordentlichen Portion Hack and Slay. » Komplette News auf pressakey.com lesen » Thronefall auf pressakey.com Hotfix 2.04 - Moorweg Boss BalancingOct 12, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsBalancing Hot Fix 2.04 In response to various player reports concerning Elara the Vile (the fire boss on Moorweg) we're trying out the following adjustments, to make the fight feel more even on default settings: • Elara damages herself with her destructive fire and slowly loses some health over time. Additionally her max health is reduced by 10%. • Damage of the fire storm reduced by 40%. • Fire projectiles (primary attack) damage reduced by 35% and damage versus the player additionally reduced by 25%. • Meteor strike attack remains unchanged (just listed for clarification here)Minimalist strategy battler Thronefall hits full launch with massive updateOct 11, 2024 - PCGamesNSome monarchs are content to lounge around, quaffing ale while shouting for more pheasants to be roasted. In Thronefall you play as a ruler that doesn't have the luxury of resting, as by day you'll be building defenses and exploring the world, and by night you'll be fighting off waves of bloodthirsty foes.

This tendency can make even the best strategy games difficult to get into, great entries to the genre like Crusader Kings 3, Civilization 6, or Total War: Pharaoh offering a welcome level of complexity to veteran players but, especially in the case of the first game mentioned above, a steep learning curve for newcomers. Because of this, games that simplify genre design, boiling it down to its foundation, are more than welcome. One of the best recent examples of this approach to design is Thronefall, which has just announced that it's leaving Early Access on Steam very soon. Read the rest of the story...

This restart cannot be used after a death or after your castle centre is destroyed. It may however be used to undo a building, wrong upgrade or mistake which did not result in death or loss. I would've loved to make this no restarts, but accidentally built a harbour in the middle of Frostsee and had to restart) One session (You have to complete all three maps back to back. No major breaks are allowed) Mutators: No Units Pact (You won't buy any barracks) No Towers Pact (You won't buy any towers) No Walls Pact (You won't buy any walls) God of Death (You won't die) Wasp God (eh, why not)" Video of the run 🥈 2nd Place – Nordfels Blinfolded "The Blind King" by LeonReg "Playing Nordfels blindfolded.

Video of the run 🥉 3rd Place – No Units, No Towers, No King Damage on Durststein "The Peasants Are Revolting!" by Tim von Ahsen "My peasants decided that the real monster was my militarist regime.

Durstein.)" Video of the run 🏅 4th Place – Never leaving the top of the hill on Sturmklamm "King of the Hill" by Quontavious "Don't leave the top of the hill on Sturmklamm for any reason.

It features a lovely, minimalist art style and a simplified version of the sort of tower defense strategy design popularized by games like Plants vs. Zombies, Kingdom Rush Vengeance, and Defense Grid: The Awakening. All of this comes together to make it one of the most compelling strategy games of the last year. Now, fortunately, Thronefall is also about to leave Early Access for a full version launch, but, along with that, its creator GrizzlyGames has also announced that it plans to increase its price a bit ahead of 1.0.

RELATED LINKS: 97% positively-rated strategy game gets 15 new modes PRICING CHANGESAug 27, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsDear Queens and Kings, Thronefall will leave Early Access soon and with that we plan to roll out a *big* content update. So big in fact that it will bring three brand new maps to the game — as many as we added during the entire Early Access period combined. To reflect that we’d like to increase Thronefall’s price from 9.99$ to 12.99$ (or the equivalent in your country’s currency). Since games cannot go on discount immediately after a price increase and we do want to release Thronefall’s full version with a celebratory launch discount we unfortunately have to apply the pricing changes some time before the actual release. It is very important to us to be transparent about our pricing and we want to give you a heads up early enough to make sure everyone gets a fair deal: We’re going to publish the new price of 12.99$ on September 3rd. Until then you'll be able to pick up Thronefall at the old price. We can’t wait to finally share more about the upcoming content with you soon. As always, thank you all so much for the continuous stream of feedback and support — it means a lot to us! All the best, Jonas & Paul Hotfix 1.753Aug 8, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsDear All, this is a small patch to fix two bugs that were brought to our attention: • Tooltips were not showing when the tutorial was played in the same session. This is now fixed and they should show correctly at all times. • In the Japanese localisation balancing parameters were not displayed correctly in tooltips and showed the source file name instead. This should be fixed now as well. Thanks a lot for pointing those out so quickly! All the best Jonas & Paul UPDATE 1.75Aug 7, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsDear Kings and Queens, today's small update brings a couple of quality of life improvements and bug fixes to Thronefall. Most importantly we finally replaced the provisional machine translations we used during the development by proper human translations provided by the awesome folks from Level Up Translation. Please let us know if you spot anymore errors or typos in the in-game texts! It's also possible now to navigate the UI with whatever you configured as your movement keys or buttons. You can find the full list of changes at the end of this post. As always thank you a lot for providing us with a continuous stream of feedback and support. We're working on may exciting things right now and we can't wait to share Thronefall's big final content update with you later this year! All the best, Jonas & Paul ____________________________ Patch Notes 1.75 CHANGES: • Replaced provisional machine translations with proper human made translations • UI can be navigated with user configured movement buttons • We set the default master volume to 0.6 to be more in line with industry standards (only affects new players) • After winning for the first time on a map you'll only receive unlock notification pop-ups for the new weapon and mutators, not for every unlocked building upgrade to reduce clutter • Added round edges to remaining hard edged UI elements FIXES: • Fixed a bug where the progress display on the overworked showed x/40 crowns achieved when there were only 37 crowns to achieve • Fixed bug where campaign unlock pop-ups showed even when you lost the match and didn't actually unlock anything • Fixed bug where the UI window started jittering around wildly when placing the mouse between two temple upgrade options • Blacksmith melee attack was changed from +20% to +25% in the recent balancing update but the text has not been adjusted, this is now fixed • Fixed bug where the temple upgrade bar got stuck • Fixed bug where the tip explaining how to command your units kept showing up every time • Emergency repairs no longer keeps draining health from other walls once one of your walls collapsedThronefall is now Steam Deck verified!Jul 26, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsDear Queens and Kings, with the latest improvements to our UI we've finally been able to get the Steam Deck verified status for Thronefall. The Deck has been one among favourite ways to play Thronefall since release, so we're really excited about this! We wish you lots of fun defending your realm on the go, on the couch or wherever may take your throne! Thanks a lot for your continuous support, feedback and love. You make developing Thronefall a blast! All the best, Jonas & Paul
