Hi everyone,

today we're excited to release a new content update for the game and a few other changes!

In this patch, we introduce a new game mode called the "Weekly Gauntlet". This mode has been teased in our previous post and you had the chance to playtest it on the beta branch and give feedback - thanks to all who participated and gave feedback, we've made some adjustments and it is now added to the game.

The Weekly Gauntlet offers introduces a new element: alternate win conditions!

You will be challenged to complete a series of three tasks and settlements without losing, each featuring a different objective to complete. The set of tasks will reset every week on Wednesdays and add in a new rotation. Each week, you will have three attempts at completing the tasks and top the leaderboard!

We are looking forward to extending some elements to other game modes if you guys like this new kind of challenge and look forward to your feedback ❤️

See you in Iceland!

Mario, Michael & Mathias
