Massive Demo Update Released!

Hey friends! Time to share some results of our latest big update for the demo version of The Chronicles of Overlord 🔥

On September 1st, we launched an update that we had been working on for an entire year. Here’s what’s new:

  • ✨ A completely new level — The Treasury
  • ✨ Full inventory system and Alchemist’s shop (you can now buy health potions and action point restorers)
  • ✨ New cutscenes and dialogues
  • ✨ Updated skill tree
  • ✨ Significantly improved English and Russian localization
  • ✨ And over a hundred smaller improvements!

But enough about features — let’s talk numbers, because no true tactician plans a battle without them:

  • ⚔️ 350+ players jumped into the updated demo.
  • 🏆 30% reached the end — “The Treasury” proved to be quite a challenge!
  • đź’€ 68% chose Skeleton Magic (classic choice!), 38% went for Absorption, and 19% picked the Shield. Teleport and Heal — for connoisseurs only.
  • đź§Ş 80% of players bought healing potions first. The Alchemist is pleased.
  • đź’ľ “Save/Load”? Almost no one used it. Hardcore confirmed.
  • đź“– 70% of players read dialogues — glad to see the story really connects!
  • đź•’ Average play session — 20 minutes, and one-third of players came back for more.

But the most valuable thing? 10 live playtests. We quietly sat next to players as they struggled, failed, triumphed — and told us the truth. It was powerful.

Thanks to everyone who joined in! Every bit of feedback is another +5 to developer endurance and +10 to motivation.
