We have released additional content for Tower of Time, together with major improvements to every aspect of the game. The full list would be too long, so here is a short summary.

Book Two

There are three new levels in the game. Journey deeper into the tower, discover technological marvels of the ancients, meet new enemies, follow the story, meet a mysterious hero, that will join your party as the seventh companion. New levels should take about 10 hours to complete - or longer, depending on chosen difficulty level and the amount of side content and combat challenges.

Story

We made few changes to the story and generally accelerated it. We have improved personality of all characters and added choices, that will have an increasing impact later on. This change also impacts previous levels. We heartily recommend to replay the game, if you already reached end of level four (it will not be a disappointing time)

Combat

We added new combat modes, such as Defend Mana Orbs, It’s a Trap, Portals. All of them require completely different tactical approach. For example - in Portals - you do not defend yourself against the enemy, you need to take the fight to them and destroy three or more portals through which they arrive, else you will be overrun when they finally advance on your position. We added new skills - for example movement skills and gravity skills. Use dash, jump, teleport to move around the battlefield in a blink of an eye. Use skills that distort gravity to pull or push enemies away. Each champion now have 8 skills at his/her disposal. We also added a skill tree where each skill has a main effect and one of the two optional enhancements, often changing the nature of the skill. Finally, we created Elite Enemies, a new category that is like a mini-boss and brings a lot of flavor to combat. They can have multiple skills, that often can be quite surprising.
We improved combat mechanics for melee classes, they now can hold enemies with their presence (body). We also added unit avoidance, so the fight is more natural now. You can hold narrow passage and no enemy will pass through as long as your tanking champion is alive (unless they jump over him to reach high-damage dealing marksman in the back).

Save Games - conversion

Due to so many changes, the previous save games are no longer compatible. We recommend to start a new playthrough, however, if you wish to continue from your current place, your save games will be automatically converted (as close as possible to your previous location). We sincerely apologize for this. We did our best to keep the saves compatible, but the game became so complex, that it just became impossible.

Other improvements

- New cinematics - Enhancements to various UI elements - New music and lots of new SFX added - New unique items added - New enemies and bosses - New character models - New challenges We hope you enjoy playing Tower of Time. As always, please send us the feedback and suggestions. We are now gearing up for the last mile here - Book Three and conclusion to the story.
Cheers, KM and EH Team
