Greetings! We'd like to thank all those who've been supporting us all this time. Our game is about to enter into the next stage, and we hope we can see it through together. You can purchase the game here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/625960/Stoneshard/ You can learn about the development plan and see answers to the most frequently asked questions in the previous news post.

PROLOGUE UPDATE

In short, its now required to complete the Prologue before playing in Adventure Mode, since its an important part of the story, serving as a tutorial to basic game mechanics. Because of that weve decided to make the Prologues difficulty curve less steep to better ease new players into the game and allow them to delve into the open world as soon as possible. The changes mostly affect the boss fight and some secondary mechanics. Other than that, the Prologue remains a formidable challenge to your tactical ability. The Prologue can be completed as part of the main game as well as separately. If you completed the Prologue after the December update and before you purchased the main game, you will be able to skip it and start playing in Adventure Mode right away.
