Seasonal greetings from the Lost Pilgrims Team
Oh, its that time of the year: jingles and laughter. Not in the Riven Realms or at the Lost Pilgrims office, though. We close this year by preparing with new dangers, difficult decisions, and harsh consequences for our upcoming DLC. Its gonna take quite a while still but we hope that itll be worth the wait. Meanwhile, on the development side, we have been working on implementing small screen and controller support to enable playing Vagrus on Steam Deck (and eventually, other handheld devices, too). We expected tackling those to be a daunting task but truth be told, it has been going even slower than we had hoped so, despite our best efforts, we are not able to share it before the holidays. It would be just too risky to release it before its thoroughly tested by enough people.
And with that, we are closing the books on this year. We will also be taking a little time off to recharge our batteries. As for the greeting card above, we did hold a photoshoot in the office for it but we worked so much on Vagrus that our images turned into in-game characters in the end. To anyone who doesnt have Vagrus or its DLCs yet, we would like to wish you Happy Holidays with some pretty neat discounts, too.
Stay tuned and conquer the wasteland! - The Lost Pilgrims Team ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you like Vagrus, please consider sharing our pages and posts with your friends through your favorite social media channel(s). It is much appreciated! Fig | Website | Youtube | Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Patreon | Discord

Vagrus is an award-winning Roleplaying Game with strategy elements, where the player takes the role of a vagrus - a sort of a caravan leader, who makes a living on a strange and dangerous dark fantasy world by leading a traveling company on all kinds of ventures.
A vast continent is yours to explore, filled with unique locations, strange factions, lurking dangers, and a lot of characters you can interact with. In order to punish the Empire for their sins a thousand years ago, the Elder Gods manifested themselves in the world, letting loose powers that ended up devastating it. Following this Calamity, the Empire was slow to rebuild and became a dark caricature of its former image. The continent is now a wasteland, riddled with arcane anomalies, twisted monsters, and undead.
A large selection of longer and shorter stories make up the game’s narrative in the form of events and quests. The choices you make in these often affect the companions and the world around you. Pick your background from trader, mercenary, or explorer; work for factions, follow rumors and trading opportunities; acquire wealth, gain fame, and discover hidden knowledge. The world is sandbox, yet it is filled with hand-crafted content.
Engage in turn-based, tactical combat that involves your companions and a large variety of enemies, both humanoid and monstrous. Use a wide range of character skills to succeed, as well as your own leadership-related abilities. Positioning and support skills are of paramount importance when your companions struggle against powerful foes.
Most journeys have to be planned and prepared for carefully, lest they end in disaster. Manage your supplies, morale, and the freshness of your people effectively to survive. Haul cargo and valuables across the wasteland or take it from others. Your crew of workers, fighters, scouts, and slaves have to be managed to optimize their effectiveness. Equip your caravan with upgrades and your companions with magical gear.
The player can recruit a wide variety of companions into the caravan to serve in versatile roles, such as scoutmaster, guard captain, quartermaster, or navigator. Each of them comes with their own combat skills, background stories, and personal quest lines that, when completed, can upgrade them in unforeseen ways. They can progress through experience levels to become more potent crew members as well as in combat.
