I apologize for the long time since the last update, I was sick for the better part of the last two weeks and unable to release the already completed update. The absolute highlight of this update is a huge content update including the complete city of Lowangen and along with it the Dungeon "Swamp of the Forgotten". This includes all the quests, dialogs, conversations, specials and other content for both locations. We are especially proud of Lowangen, the largest city in the game by far, with more than 150 buildings, three distinguishable districts and nearly 200 NPCs in the Streets. The swamp is also huge, with more than 600.000 m². Both locations have been implemented with the Version of 1994 as a template and with a myriad of improvements and corrections.
