Year-End Recap & Important Updates For Our Snowcastle Community

Hello there, Adventurers!


As we approach the end of the year, it's time to reflect on the milestones we've achieved together and share some important updates.

Ikonei Island Launched on Steam and Epic


We're thrilled to announce the successful launch of Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure on November 9th, now available on both Steam and Epic platforms. We worked hard to implement the Friends Pass, which also functions as a demo! The Friends Pass allows a group of up to 4 players to play indefinitely on the hosts island, provided the host owns the game. We hope this fosters a sense of community and collaboration among players. We are not done with Ikonei Island yet - On December 14th, Ikonei is celebrating Lystide! Players will be visited by The Spirit of Lystide Past - so make sure to check out the Hamlet!


Lystide sneak peeks! [hr][/hr] Your support has been instrumental in making this launch a success, and we're excited to continue building and expanding Ikonei Island in the coming months.

Earthlock's Epic Store Free Week


Our first title, Earthlock, was originally released in 2018. We have seen a huge boost in activity since it was available for free on the Epic Store for a week in November. Over 5.9 million people claimed the game! We hope you enjoyed revisiting the world of Earthlock. Be sure to check out our comics on Steam and Epic if you want to delve further into the Earthlock lore.

Earthlock 2 Delay and Updates



We have restarted the Earthlock 2 project and with that put the date to TBA. For the last year, we have been in pre-production totally redesigning the main concept and direction of the game. We are super excited to share this new vision for E2 with you and will be doing so in the upcoming months. Our team made the choice to switch from Unity to Unreal Engine a couple of years ago. This has been a huge undertaking, and we have learned a lot about the engine, and the way we work as a studio. Another major challenge we have taken on is working on our first multiplayer game in Ikonei Island. We have grown as a studio tackling these challenges, but it has cost us more time than initially anticipated. However, for the last year, we have gone back to pre-production working on the core vision, and redesigned the main concept for the game. We feel we have something really good now, and we have been presenting this to publishers and investors lately. We even won an award for the most anticipated game at an investor event in Malta at the end of November. We are working on making this vision presentable to the community and will begin posting about this soon. Were excited to share these new features and more news about the development process going forward, so wishlist Earthlock 2 to keep up to date! Speaking of new features Whats this? [previewyoutube=p-7ranLvh98;full][/previewyoutube] As we wrap up the year, we want to express our gratitude for your unwavering support, feedback, and enthusiasm. Our community plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of our games, and we look forward to embarking on new adventures together in the upcoming year. Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a fantastic New Year filled with exciting gaming experiences! [hr][/hr]

Earthlock 2 Update!

Hello from Umbra and our Snowcastle team!


We have been awfully quiet about Earthlock 2, and we are sure you are wondering what is happening. Rest assured, Earthlock 2 is coming! But before we update you on Earthlock 2, we want to tell you about our studio and what we have been up to. First, we want to thank you for your continued support! Our fans keep messaging and tweeting us about our games and asking about our team - it means the world to us! What has Snowcastle Games been up to last year? We have some bad news and some good news. The bad news is that, unfortunately, Earthlock 2 is delayed and will not be released this year. Dont worry, we are still working on it! Since we began the game, our team has doubled and we have had to come to grips with switching from Unity to Unreal. This has been a huge undertaking, and we realized that we needed to rethink how we work.
Earthlock 2 Character Concept Art
Earthlock 2 In Engine capture The good news is that the changes weve made internally have been a huge success! Earthlock 2 is an ambitious project. We know you have high hopes for it and so do we. Now we are confident that were on the right road to meeting those expectations. There is, however, one last thing: beside Earthlock 2, we have been working on something that you are going to hear about very soon! It is a completely new project and we cant wait to show it! We hope you continue to support us, and promise to share updates a lot more frequently in the future, both about Earthlock 2 and our secret new project!

Patch: Credit where credit is due + Announcing 2nd comic!

We just released a patch to enable the credits from the main menu. There is a lot of people who deserve credit for the game - among them the backers. Having to play the game to the very end to see the credits is a bit unfair for those that just like to see their name in the credits. New Comic We are happy to announce that we have began making a new comic book. Below is a little sneak peak.

Headsup: Previous owners of Comic Book and OST!

We are working on getting the entitlements moved from the old version to the new.


So please don't buy the Collectors Edition if you already own the comic or soundtrack DLCs from the old version of Earthlock. You will get it transferred. It's a manual job that Valve needs to help us with, so it will likely take some time. Thank you for your patience. Cheers, Bendik

    If you are new to EARTHLOCK


    Don’t let the cute cartoonish art style fool you. This game is challenging. True fans of the JRPG genre will love it, casual players may want to look elsewhere. Invest the time, and EARTHLOCK will reward you with a depth in gameplay that will test the most strategic of players.

    Discover Your Hero Within



    Embark on a journey to save the beautiful world of Umbra, a harsh planet that stopped spinning thousands of cycles ago. What started as a mission to rescue Amon’s uncle from the clutches of an ancient cult, soon spirals into an adventure that was centuries in the making. You must bring together this group of unlikely heroes to stop the ruinous past from repeating itself.

    The World




    Explore the magical world of Umbra and discover places lost in the past to uncover the secrets of the Earthlock Artifact.


    The Heroes




    Unite this band of heroes, all with their own journeys of self discovery and venture into the world to save the planet from the growing evil within. Mix up your strategy to beat your enemies using two different stances per character, and build your characters' battle bond to unleash powerful abilities or unique perks.

    The Battles


    Dive into turn based battles on arenas in the grand tradition to explore the depths of tactical choices needed to survive the fierce boss fights.

    Your Own Secret Island




    Take a break from adventure and escape to your own home island. Here you can harvest magical ingredients and craft weapons, helpful items and perks.

    Grow Stuff


    Gather seeds to grow amazing plants both on the island and elsewhere. Many provide necessary ingredients to make your way around the world. Some, when they ripen, in stead produce living off spring, cute little kittens and other creatures that wander about for pure enjoyment.

    The Overworld



    With plenty of stuff to do you can lose yourself in the Overworld. Scavenge for items, pick flowers, catch cute Bibis or dig up treasures to trade or take back to Plumpet Island to concoct the strangest potions and ammunitions giving you a leg up in your next battle.

    The Talent Table




    EARTHLOCK features a unique talent board system; a refreshing take on the classic skill tree. This board gives you complete control over your player's strengths and weaknesses. You can swap talents on and off the board, allowing you to finely tune each character to your desired playing style. The talent board also features “Perk Talents” which you can craft and collect in the world, giving you special combat skills and abilities.


    For the best EARTHLOCK experience, we recommend using a game controller.
