Hello! As all of you probably know, we're hard at work at our big story DLC and intend to release it somewhere around late February - mid March. The official announcement with more details and Steam page should come later this month. But new story chapters is not the only thing to look forward to. Together with the release of the DLC, the base game is going to receive another huge free update - 1.6. Here's just a glimpse of what's coming: 1. Scabbards and in-battle weapon swapping. 2. Roguelike mode (player's score at the end of each run is converted into gold that can be used to level up stats and purchase various equipment at the start of a new run, allowing you to start the game with highly customized character). 3. Ironman mode (a mode with permanent death and no ability to freely save\load). 4. Dedicated slots for gorgets and bracers (and also a lot more of them). 5. An obtainable chest, where player can store items while in camp. 6. Improved virtue mechanics and new dialogue interactions (for example, characters reacting to you being drunk). 7. New weapons with new mechanics, improvements and cahnges for some of the existing ones. 8. A lot of new items including new consumables and trinkets. 9. New and improved visual models for all female characters. 10. Some new quests and interactions. 11. Some changes to crossbows, new shield- and armor-breaking bolts. 12. Even more scavenge events. 13. A LOT of balance changes. And probably a lot more. All of this is coming to the base HWR game with patch 1.6 together with the release of the DLC. So, I guess this is it for today. If you want to get a glimpse of the new stuff - join our Discord, where I post a lot of work-in-progress shots of new items, abilities and characters. You can also ask me any questions there. https://discord.gg/6y2NjEpXWv And, of course, thanks a lot for playing Heads Will Roll. There's only two of us working on this game, but we're giving it all we've got!

This game is a unique blend of RPG, dating sim and survival with turn-based combat that requires player to make careful decision both inside and outside the fight. The sophisticated combat system utilizes many different parameters including characters’ stats and attributes, familiarity and proficiency with certain weapons, weapon length, fatigue level, various traumas and injuries, as well as hundreds of different items and consumables.
All’s fair in love and war
Fight not only for wealth and honor but also for the hearts of several stunning beauties with unique personalities, views on life and tastes in men. Conquering some of them might prove to be just as tricky as surviving the war.
Loot it all
The game offers more than 150 different lootable items varying from all kinds of medieval weaponry and armor to trinkets with unique effects, several types of poisons, medical supplies and many crafting items.
Face the consequences
All of the actions that your character takes will have in-game consequences. The NPCs will change their opinions of you depending on how you treat them and how you behave both inside and outside of battle. This in turn will enable or disable various future interactions with them and sometimes trigger special events.
Crafting system
Make good use of any loot or supplies that you got your hands on. A lot of them can be combined in order to craft medical and utility items, as well as many types of crossbow ammunition.
Big replayability
Heads Will Roll utilizes many random generation elements that will turn two separate playthroughs into two completely unique experiences. Start with different items and stats, face different enemies, make different choices and live through different events each time you play.
Huge arsenal
The game has dozens of weapons grouped into 8 large categories with varying movesets that rely on and make use of different stats & skills (strength, agility etc.), with all of them countering each other in some way.
