The deeper Spirits of vulcanism are too powerful and slow, too removed to respond to the Invaders but not so this one. An Explosive Eruption splits the sky and the island is empowered by wellsprings of elemental essence. The fifth phase of Jagged Earth content is now available with a new Spirit and Scenario.
Volcano Looming High: A Spirit of fire and earth stretching upwards to the sky, casting a long and dangerous shadow across the land. It doesnt dislike humans per se, but neither does it have much use for them, so the Dahan tend to keep away from it as much as possible. However, they sometimes end up dealing with its temper whether they want to or not Elemental Invocation: The Spirits can call forth wellsprings of essence to empower small areas of the island, strengthening and aligning nature with a particular element. This is fortunate, for the Invaders are encroaching more strongly than before.

Horizons of Spirit Island expands the hit tabletop game with more Spirits and island boards to increase replayability and improve accessibility for newer players. It features all the content from the tabletop game of the same name, designed by R. Eric Reuss. The five new Spirits are designed to be ideal for those playing a Spirit Island game for the first time, and three new island boards allow for even more island combinations! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2419040/Spirit_Island__Horizons_of_Spirit_Island/

Horizons of Spirit Island includes:

• Spirit - Devouring Teeth Lurk Underfoot: Long ago, the being which would become this Spirit was a small, territorial Spirit of the sand-by-water. It waited patiently for small prey to approach, then frightened them towards its waiting maw; when fresh prey was scarce it would scavenge. Most such Spirits stay tiny, but this one happened to take a bite out of Ember-Eyed Behemoth..
• Spirit - Eyes Watch From the Trees: Even after centuries, the Dahan find many things about this Spirit somewhat enigmatic. It warns of danger, helps those lost or injured in the forest, and only works mischief on aggressors and the arrogant. Back in the days of the First Reckoning, its faint whispers were a source of dread, but to current generations they're a familiar and expected part of the island.
• Spirit - Fathomless Mud of the Swamp: The Island has many swampy deltas along its coasts. Some are fairly navigatable, while others are mazes of murky water, tangled trees, and land that isn't nearly so solid as it appears. This Spirit is one of these latter sorts, with a penchant for spreading - it likes getting everywhere, slowly turning solid ground into muck and mire.
• Spirit - Rising Heat of Stone and Sand: Even after centuries, this Spirit remains a bit unclear on why living things get so unhappy about fatal dessication, but the Dahan make such pleasant patterns across its sands that it's happy to forbear.
• Spirit - Sun-Bright Whirlwind: A Spirit of sun-warmed and gusting air. It spins leaves and dust into miniature cyclones, playfully snatches at small unsecured objects, and sometimes - when joyful, or upset, or full of the vigor of nature - howls across the island, bending trees and abrading the landscape with pebbles, twigs, shells, and the occasional bird nest.
• Island Boards: F, G, and H

What Else?

• macOS High Sierra 10.13+, Apple Silicon or x64 architecture
• Linux: Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 18.04, and CentOS 7, x64 architecture

This adds a judicious spice of uncertainty for experienced players as well as creating both opportunities and hard choices for the Spirits! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1516480/Spirit_Island__Branch__Claw [previewyoutube=sBux7DC4n5k;full][/previewyoutube] How can we Spirits drive the invaders back to their boats and off our island? We must grow, change, and find new paths - if we stay as we are, we shall die, and the Island with us. Bring forth the natural chaos, and let our new ways be of both Branch and Claw! We shall summon predators from the heart of the island, wilds from every patch of ground, illness from the twisting mists, and turn the hearts and minds of the invaders against one another. More Spirits answer the call, but the invaders redouble their efforts. Can you stop them in time?

Version 1.1 of Spirit Island has been released with support for the Promo Pack 1 DLC. Promo Pack 1 includes two Spirits: Heart of the Wildfire and Serpent Slumbering Beneath the Island. Each Spirit has four unique Power Cards. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1409120/Spirit_Island__Promo_Pack_1/ Many Spirits can sense the immense Serpent deep below. It is mostly asleep, and its influence on the land above is limited, but the Invaders' Blight already begins to sting it towards greater wakefulness. The Wildfire is a spirit of natural destruction... and renewal after destruction. A long-standing friend of the Dahan, it glories in their fires and sparks. It spares their villages as best it can, and fights the Invaders in large part for them. If you backed the Indiegogo campaign at Deluxe Edition or higher, a Steam key for Promo Pack 1 awaits you in your BackerKit dashboard under Digital Downloads.

For gameplay issues, check the official FAQ to make sure it's really a bug, and not a misunderstanding. This quick update has a few improvements and fixes for some notable bugs that affected a few players. Improvements:

• We figured out how to keep the Invader pieces upright without their plastic bases. Thanks to those who suggested trying that!
• Cities and Towns are now easier to distinguish between in the 3D map.
• Added an indicator showing the number of cards left in your Power Progression deck. Click it to view the cards coming up in order.
• The Power Progression toggle in the new game screen (when right clicking a Spirit) has been moved to the top right and made easier to see.
• Improved animation for gaining power cards from power progression or the start of the game.
• Clarified that the "intro game" is not a tutorial. We will be adding a proper interactive tutorial to the game over the course of Early Access.

• Fixed an issue where Quick Play could occasionally cause a freeze.
• Gaining all your cards from Power Progression can no longer lead to gaining duplicate cards.
• Fixed a problem with Bringer of Dreams and Nightmares where damage caused by Dahan Insurrection was not handled correctly.
• Fixed an issue where the number of card plays this turn could display incorrectly in Guard the Isle's Heart.
• Fixed an error in end game score calculation.

What's Next

Spirit Island is now available in Steam Early Access - and it's 15% off for launch week! The first Early Access release allows you to play full games with 1-4 Spirits. Most of the content of the core game of Spirit Island is implemented and playable: all Spirits, Power cards, Scenarios, and 2 Adversaries. Spirit Island is under active development and will be updated regularly. You can think of Early Access as a step between Beta and Retail release. There will be bugs, and some content is currently not available, but the game is much further along than what you might see in a Public Beta (See Steam's Early Access FAQ for more). New to Spirit Island? Why not watch an instructional video to learn now to play! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2q9ZThCqrQ Over the next several months, we will continue to add features and content to the game ahead of its official retail launch later this year. Still to come:

• Interactive tutorial
• More animations and visual effects
• Extended music and sound effects
• Card library screen
• England adversary
• Thematic island boards
• Steam Achievements
