Hey everybody -- It's just over 24 hours since we've published Cross of the Dutchman! We're getting some great responses, but also some remarks that convinced us to make some changes to the store page. Originally, we classified Cross of the Dutchman as an RPG, primarily because of the way you take control of the main character, and because of the interaction that can be had with other characters. Going by the reviews that we're seeing, most people would not classify our game as an RPG, and that is probably correct. So, what we've done to improve is update the store page. We've removed the RPG tag from the category description, and added tags like "hack-and-slash" instead. Hopefully, this better conveys what the game is actually about, and ensures that future players get what they expect from the game. We're constantly keeping track of the reviews and the posts made on the community board, so if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask! If you like to read what others think about Cross of the Dutchman, make sure to check out one of the following links:
- Kotaku wrote a bit on CotD
- And, Kotaku wonders if our Papercraft should be free ...
- Listen to what Jim Sterling has to say about CotD
- Or read the wonderful review by Softpedia.
- And if you're curious, you can check out one of the let's play videos!

The story takes place in medieval Western Europe, in the province of Frisia, near the turn of the 16th century. Though Pier and his family lived in peace, the world around them was changing for the worse. Saxon legions were invading nearby villages, making the lives of the native people next to impossible. On one fateful day, Pier got involved with the Saxon oppressors, escalating the situation for the worse. The events portrayed in this great adventure caused Pier to gather a band of farmers and form a front against the oppressors. The acts that followed made Pier into the legend he is known for, the Cross of the Dutchman.
