Changelog

v. 0.80.34

Bug Fixes

• Jebus Tournament: The absence of a player’s starting hero at the beginning of a tournament battle no longer crashes the game.

• Fixed the hotkey for "Heroic Strike".

• Fixed a bug where the match timer incorrectly continued running for both players while simultaneous turns were stopped.

• An enemy hero executing a strike while under the effect of "Mirage" no longer crashes the game.

• An opponent leaving Arena Mode while selecting a target for an ability no longer crashes the game.

Balance

• Balance adjustments from the previous patch over-nerfed Magic heroes in Arena Mode; as a result, we are decreasing the starting unit counts offered during the draft phase.

• "Sorcery": Magic Damage bonus increased: 10/20/30% → 20/30/40%.

• Magic Damage specialists (Sorcery specialists) have been adjusted: they now gain a 15% + 5% bonus per 3 hero levels (previously 10% + 1% per 1 hero level).

• "Stables" have been completely blocked from generating on Sprint template (for good this time, good riddance).

• The size of the player starting areas on Jebus Tournament template has been slightly reduced. Guard strength for both standard guards and central area gatekeepers has been slightly decreased.

• "Point of Balance" objects can no longer generate in players' side areas on Helltide.

Localization

Fixed a translation memory error where the Chinese localization for Angels (and Archangels) was accidentally reverted to 光明者. The correct official term (天使) has been fully restored.

Greetings, Heroes!

A quick hotfix is here to address a few issues discovered after the previous update — including a bug affecting Advanced-tier Battle Magic, a save loading issue, and some incorrect skill and law descriptions.

Full patch notes are below. See you on the battlefield!

Changelog

v. 0.80.33

• Fixed incorrect behavior of the Advanced Battle Magic.

• Fixed a bug where some saves would not load.

• Fixed an error in the description of the Summon Avatar skill.

• Fixed an error in the description of the "Dungeon Masters" laws of the Dungeon faction.

Greetings, Heroes!

We are excited to present a massive and fresh update, with a special focus on balancing faction mechanics, fixing exploits, and improving overall gameplay convenience. Based on your feedback and collected statistics, we have prepared a series of large-scale changes that will noticeably refresh the current meta. Main highlights of this patch:

• Necromancy. We have completely reworked the core logic for raising undead after combat. You can now raise enemy units into undead even if you did not have creatures of that exact tier in your army. Along with this, the energy cost to raise creatures has significantly changed, and we have added helpful elements to the UI, including the ability to manually recycle fallen enemies into Necromantic Energy directly in the combat results window.

• Other Faction Skills. Changes have been made to Schism's "Abyssal Communion" (the effect now applies to non-Schism faction units as well), as well as to Hive's larvae mechanics, shifting their gameplay focus toward their explosive potential.

• Battle Magic and Summon Avatar. Following recent balance adjustments and nerfs to Might heroes, Mages have significantly solidified their position. We are reverting the base stats of "Battle Magic" to their original values. The heavily debated "Summon Avatar" skill has also been adjusted — the base version is weakened, but you will now have more options for situational upgrades via its sub-skills.

• New “Tournament” Win Condition Templates. New competitive templates have been added to the random map generator — Jebus Tournament and Outcast Tournament, featuring uninterrupted simultaneous turns, alongside the hybrid templates called Mix and Galaxy.

• Template Rotation. The template rotation pool has been updated for both Classic Mode and Single Hero Mode, and the faction pick-and-ban order between players has been slightly adjusted.

• Bug Fixes. Among other fixes, we eliminated an exploit that allowed Temple players to infinitely gain resources on the Global Map, resolved an issue with incorrect Dungeon dragons alternative attack damage, and fixed errors related to loading multiplayer saves. ⚠️ Reminder: Intentionally exploiting in-game bugs in competitive play can result in a temporary or permanent multiplayer ban! Engaging in such behavior may also violate the rules of the platform you're playing on, risking a platform-wide ban. Don't jeopardize your account for a dubious advantage — play fair! ⚠️

Thank you so much for your support, for developing the official community wiki, and for helping us make the game better!

Multiplayer, UI, and Lobby

• Fixed a bug where entering a tournament combat from a city placed the player on the Global Map with a broken game UI.

• Fixed a bug with map areas generation if player slots were locked in the lobby.

• Artifacts included in a set are now correctly highlighted on the city screen, whilst within the hero inventory window.

New Features

• The Necromancy interface has been significantly redesigned: additional information has been added to guard tooltips on the map and in the end-of-battle window. You can now switch between accumulating Necromantic Energy and turning creatures into Undead of the same tier directly in the battle results window.

• The Dungeon Heroes' Combat Stance interface has been improved.

• The retreat button has been disabled in single-hero mode, and tooltips have been added explaining the reasons for blocking an escape or surrender in various situations.

Balance

Skills

Offense

• "Reality Wardens": Effect reworked. The sub-skill now reduces the enemy hero's Spell Power by 10%. The effect is doubled if the hero knows "Nightshade Magic."

Luck

• The base chance to trigger a Lucky Hit per 1 point of Luck has been increased: 6% → 8%. This chance is now twice the base trigger chance of the high Morale effect.

Wisdom

• "Rhythmic Cadence": Max mana bonus increased: 30% → 40%.

• "Stargazer": Daily Astrology Points gained increased: 250 → 500.

Battle Magic

Following recent balance adjustments and nerfs to Might heroes, Mages have significantly solidified their position. We are reverting the base stats of "Battle Magic" to their original values while balancing its individual sub-skills.

• Creature Attack and Defense bonus scaling from the hero's Spell Power and Knowledge: 15/25/35% → 15/20/25%.

• Sub-skill Updates:

• "Battle Mage’s Authority": Attack bonus scaling from Spell Power reduced: 20% → 15%.

• "Mage Protector’s Authority": Defense bonus scaling from Knowledge reduced: 20% → 15%.

Summon Avatar

Based on collected statistics and your feedback, we are introducing a series of adjustments to this skill. The new version significantly reduces the power of the base version of the summoned Avatar, but allows you to heavily upgrade it depending on your preferences and the game situation.

• The Avatar can now survive strictly 3 hits, regardless of the skill level.

• The number of hits can no longer be increased by bonuses that "increase creature HP."

• Base damage reduced: 12-12 → 10-10.

• Damage scaling per 1 point of hero Spell Power reduced: 12–12/12–12/12–12 → 6–6/8–8/10–10.

• The spell has been moved to Tier 4, meaning its cooldown is now 5 rounds (including the round of casting).

• Sub-skill Updates:

• "Avatar of Celerity": Base Speed and Initiative bonuses to the Avatar increased: 1 → 2.

• Replacement skill: "Fields of Mana" has been replaced by a new sub-skill, "Summon Destruction": The hero and friendly creatures deal +50% Damage to all summoned creatures.

Combat

• "Effortless Strike": This sub-skill is now learned at the Expert level of the skill.

• "Swordcraft": This sub-skill is now learned at the Advanced level of the skill.

Thaumaturgy

• "Ancient Scrolls": This sub-skill is now learned at the Expert level of the skill.

• "Thaumaturge Brilliance": This sub-skill is now learned at the Advanced level of the skill.

Faction Skills

Necromancy

The current version of Necromancy is powerful enough, but overly complex to grasp. With this update, we are removing the strict restriction that ties undead raising to the current composition of the hero's army. Now, even if your army lacks creatures of a certain tier, you will still be able to raise high-tier units after a victory.

To balance this change, we are adjusting the starting energy values and its recovery after combat — the total number of raised units has been noticeably decreased.

🎨 Additionally, we have made major improvements to the Necromancy UI.

• Reworked the core logic for raising undead after combat:

• You can now raise enemy units into undead even if you did not have creatures of that exact tier in your army.

• By default, fallen enemies are resurrected as their base versions: Tier-1 units become Skeletons, Tier-2 units become Wights, etc.

• If your army already includes undead of the required tier, the type of unit raised depends on its composition:

• If the base creature is present — the base version is raised.

• If only the upgraded creature is present — the upgraded version is raised (at an increased energy cost).

• If multiple upgrades of the creature are present — the undead type whose stack is numerically larger in the army will be raised.

• Information regarding which exact creature will be raised has been added to map tooltips.

• In the combat results window, you can now cancel the summon decision and manually recycle fallen enemies into Necromantic Energy.

• Base Necromantic Energy capacity for heroes increased: 1000/1250/1500 → 3000/4000/5000.

• Energy cost to raise creatures (values in parentheses indicate upgraded versions):

• Tier 1: 5 → 20 (26)

• Tier 2: 10 → 40 (54)

• Tier 3: 25 → 100 (140)

• Tier 4: 50 → 200 (290)

• Tier 5: 100 → 400 (600)

• Tier 6: 200 → 800 (1280)

• Tier 7: 500 → 2000 (3500)

• Tier 8: 2000 → 7500

• Energy recovery values chosen instead of raising units remain unchanged.

• The elite class for Necromancers — "Chronomancer" — has been reworked. It now fully replenishes the hero's Necromantic Energy pool daily.

• Sub-skill Updates:

• "Death Herald": Max Necromantic Energy bonus for the hero: 500 → 1000.

• "Eternal Service": Base health restored reduced: 80 → 50 HP.

Abyssal Communion

Following recent adjustments, Schism still performs under expectations in Classic Mode while remaining dominant in Single Hero Mode. We are making a series of adjustments to faction laws (see below), expanding the effect of their faction skill to cover all units instead of just Schism faction units, while reducing numerical bonuses.

• The Abyssal Communion effect now applies to non-Schism faction units as well.

• Maximum level of Abyssal Communion reduced: 4/5/6 → 3/4/5.

• The percentage of temporary creatures summoned per Communion level has been reduced: 3% → 2.5%.

• Sub-skill Updates:

• "Call of the Void": Mana restored per level of Abyssal Communion reduced: 3 → 2.

• "Celestial Abyss": Bonus to the number of temporary creatures per Communion level reduced: 1% → 0.5%.

Summon Swarm

Recent changes have had a positive impact on Hive's power, particularly in Single Hero Mode. However, in the late game, their faction skill allows them to create a massive extra unit that is extremely difficult to counter. We are adjusting the stats of summoned larvae and shifting gameplay focus toward their passive explosive ability.

• Other summoned or temporary stacks are no longer counted when calculating the number of larvae to summon.

• Larvae health increased: 8 → 16.

• "Unstable Concoction": Damage increased: 8 → 15 per hero level.

• "Fiery Embrace" and "Blow Up": Damage increased: 16 → 30 per hero level.

Murmuring

• The effects of the sub-skills "Just One More Time," "Burst of Energy," and "Strong Connection" now trigger as many times as there were Focus Charges spent to activate the ability.

• "Just One More Time": Spellbook cooldown reduction reduced: 2 → 1 round.

Greetings, Heroes!

This patch introduces an update to the combat tactics phase: unit formations are now saved between battles! We've also improved the visual display and sound of unit movement there.

You can find the details and nuances of how the new system works in the full changelog below.

In addition to the tactics phase changes, we've continued removing bugs: fixes have been made to tournament template issues related to last-second timer actions and tournament start notifications; several incorrectly functioning tooltips have been addressed; the "Ambassador's Word" set effect has been fixed, along with a number of other bugs.

We've also added a confirmation window when clicking the "Exit" button in the connection loss window. No more accidents!

Full patch notes are below. Good luck on the battlefield!

Changelog

v. 0.80.24

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug that caused numerous UI errors after loading a previously started Hotseat game, or when swapping positions with an AI player in the lobby of a previously started game.

• Fixed a bug where, in rare situations, the timer in the lobby settings could display "00."

• Fixed a bug where part of the progress from an old campaign profile could carry over to a new profile created in the same slot.

• Fixed a bug in tournament templates where moving a unit between slots (from a hero to a town, from a town to a hero, etc.) in the last second of the timer before a tournament battle started could result in creatures being duplicated or disappearing.

• Fixed a rare bug in tournament templates where a player who attacked a neutral stack in the last second of the timer before a tournament battle started would lose the ability to interact with that neutral stack after the battle ended.

• Fixed a rare AI bug where, under certain circumstances, the AI could freeze during its turn.

• Fixed a potentially serious bug related to checking adjacent zones for the possibility of interrupting simultaneous turns when casting adventure map spells.

• The notification about an upcoming tournament battle on tournament templates now adjusts to fit the text size.

• Fixed an error where an incorrect value was displayed in the tooltip for the "Eternal Service" sub-skill of the "Necromancy" skill.

• Fixed a bug where, after researching the "Elite Liches" law, the resurrection bonus it provides was not displayed in the Lich ability tooltips.

• Fixed a bug where the "Ambassador's Word" set effect was not triggering.

• Fixed an error where a connection loss window appeared in the following situation: one player upgrades creatures in the "Pit of Glory" while the other player simultaneously moves a hero from the garrison slot to the guest slot (or vice versa).

• Fixed an error where the extended info tooltip for a scroll continued to display over the previous cell where the scroll had been located.

• Fixed a bug where autobattle did not work when attacking objects guarded by a garrison in campaign mode.

New Features

• Added a confirmation window when clicking the "Exit" button in the connection loss window.

• The unit formation selected during the tactics phase is now saved for battles against AI players.

• Important details about how the system works:

• The formation is saved separately for each of the player's heroes.

• Formation saving only applies to standard battles against neutral enemies. In battles for objects or against other players, armies are placed in their default positions.

• The formation is saved at the moment the tactics phase ends in standard battles against neutral enemies.

• If for any reason (for example, due to an obstacle on the battlefield) a unit cannot be placed in its previously saved position, it will be placed in its default position instead.

• Unit placement takes into account the order in which stacks occupy the hero's army slots.

• Example_: a hero had Skeletons in the first slot and Wights in the second → During the tactics phase, a formation was saved with Skeletons placed higher and Wights lower → After the battle, the player swapped Skeletons and Wights in the army slots, so Wights are now in the first slot and Skeletons in the second → In the next battle, Wights will be placed in the higher position (where Skeletons used to be) and Skeletons in the lower position (where Wights used to be)._

• Improved the visual display of unit movement in tactics mode; sound has been added.

Balance

• Reduced the damage dealt by the Avatar per point of hero Spell Power: 12–12/16–16/20–20 → 12–12/12–12/12–12. This change is a temporary fix ahead of an upcoming major balance update.

Greetings, Heroes!

A small hotfix is here to address a few issues that slipped through after the previous update.

Changelog

v. 0.80.20

• Fixed another variation of the game exit exploit, which also affected the correct saving of match results. ⚠️_We remind you one more time that bug exploiting and other dishonest behaviour in competitive play may end up with a long-term multiplayer ban for you._

• Fixed a bug crashing Jebus Outcast and All Around generation.

• Fixed a bug that was the reason for Law and Astrology points not increasing on the first day of each week (although Mondays are hard, so we don’t judge them too much).

Thanks for your reports — keep sending in bug reports, it helps us make the game better!

With love,

💙 Unfrozen Team

Greetings, Heroes!

Yesterday’s patch brought significant changes, and today we’re releasing a hotfix to address them.

Having analysed the initial data and your feedback following Patch 8, we’ve concluded that a number of changes have had too significant an impact on single hero mode’s gameplay — primarily affecting the Schism faction. In today’s minor patch, we’re reverting some of these changes and adjusting others in line with our vision for balance. At the same time, we are implementing improvements for Hive that were originally planned for a later date ahead of schedule.

The update also includes bug fixes (including those introduced by Patch 8 itself) and a buff to the Dungeon in the Arena.

Full patch notes are below. Good luck on the battlefield!

Changelog

v. 0.80.19

Bug Fixes

• Jebus Cross: Fixed a bug from the previous update where Taverns and Mage Guilds were still being built in central area cities despite the intended changes.

• Sand Clover: Fixed a bug from the previous update where some guards were not generating.

• Exodus: Fixed a bug from the previous update where the template could still generate more dwellings of a specific tier.

• Fixed a bug from the previous update where upgraded versions of Cultists had inconsistent hiring costs.

• Fixed a bug from the previous update where the casting cost of the Death Merchant's "Ensnare Memories" ability was displayed incorrectly.

• Fixed bugs from the previous update related to the class changes for Tavi and Pauper (wrong models and Heroic Strike).

• Fixed a bug from the previous update where the number of bonus attributes for the Temple sub-skill "Strong Faith" was displayed incorrectly.

• Fixed a UI bug that occurred when exchanging items or troops between heroes if either hero had active buffs or debuffs. In multiplayer, this was also causing desyncs.

• Fixed a bug where force-closing the game via Alt+F4 during the pick-and-ban phase incorrectly assigned match results.

• Fixed a bug with army growth from temporary stacks gained through Communion of the Abyss for the Schism faction AI-opponent.

---

Balance

After reviewing your feedback following yesterday's patch, we are making a number of adjustments in today's hotfix.

Yesterday's changes were aimed at refreshing the gameplay, including strengthening the Schism faction's standing in Classic mode. However, as many of you noted in the comments, some of those changes had too strong an impact on Single Hero mode. In today's update, we are reverting some of those changes and making additional adjustments. These changes will have a greater impact on Single Hero mode and a lesser one on Classic mode, where Schism's position is already quite weak.

At the same time, in the previous update we did not give sufficient attention to the Hive. Its situation is broadly the inverse of Schism's — the faction performs well in Arena and Classic modes but struggles in Single Hero mode. One reason for this is the demanding nature of Hive battles, which require significant time investment to minimize losses. As a result, in that update we slightly adjusted combat timers and intended to observe how this would affect the faction's results before making further decisions. However, we see your requests for more impactful changes, so we are implementing some of the planned adjustments now.

Skills

After the update, the Summon Avatar use cases have shifted, closing off some abuse scenarios (though you will certainly find new ones), and the skill has also started performing effectively in Arena mode. Based on initial observations, the skill appears quite strong, so we are making a slight adjustment to its damage and will continue to monitor its performance. More significant changes, however, will require more data.

"Summon Avatar"

• Damage scaling from Spell Power decreased: 12–12/18–18/24–24 → 12–12/16–16/20–20.

Hero Specializations

We have slightly adjusted the starting skills of Hive heroes so that, in combination with the other changes, these heroes perform better as starter heroes — which will primarily affect their effectiveness in Single Hero mode.

Hive

• Pauper

• Starting skill: Luck → Battlecraft

• Maelstrom

• Starting skill: Insight → Luck

• Nor

• Starting skill: Battlecraft → Insight

• Zoran, the Self-Founded

• Starting skill: Nightshade Magic → Defense

• Lo

• Starting skill: Defense → Recruitment

• Leira

• Starting skill: Battle Magic → Nightshade Magic

• Oriax

• Starting skill: Recruitment → Battle Magic

• Tavi

• Bonus to the number of summoned Fire Larvae based on Hive army health: 4% + 1% per every two hero levels → 4% + 2% per every three hero levels

Factions: Creatures, Buildings, Pandora's Boxes, and More

During the creature changes, we revisited the balance value of certain active and passive abilities, resulting in adjustments to some creatures — and related elements such as Pandora's Box counts, hiring costs, and city recruitment buildings. The main changes affect the Schism and Hive factions: the former has been slightly nerfed, while the latter has been buffed. Additionally, significant changes have been made to Hive faction laws, which should allow them to accumulate power faster in Single Hero mode matches. Also included are Pandora's Box changes for the Dungeon faction that were accidentally omitted from the previous update.

Pandora's Boxes

The number of creatures players can receive from Pandora's Boxes has been adjusted. Values are given for standard/upgraded versions in "before → after" format:

• Necropolis:

• Tier 4, Graverobber: 30/21 → 31/21.

• Hive:

• Tier 3, Hornet: 30/22 → 28/20.

• Tier 4, Scorpion: 29/20 → 32/22.

• Tier 7, Hive Queen: 7/4 → 8/5.

• Dungeon:

• Tier 1, Troglodyte: 60/45 → 50/35.

Greetings, Heroes!

A brand-new patch is now live — and it is a massive one.

This patch covers extensive balance adjustments across multiple game systems: skills, spells, hero specializations, creatures, artifacts, map templates, and the matchmaking system. The expert-level subskills for “Murmuring” have been significantly reworked, and the “Summon Avatar” skill has been fully overhauled to position it as a purely magical ability.

Certain passive creature abilities were recalculated — most notably “Parry.” Additionally, based on collected telemetry and statistics, we have buffed the upgraded versions of creatures that were noticeably underperforming compared to their alternative upgrade options.

Improvements have also reached the random map genertator. The side areas on the popular Jebus Cross template are now much more interesting to play, while the Sprint, Harmony, and Exodus templates have been adjusted to increase overall pace of the game. Along with these changes, we have updated the template pool for the matchmaking.

Finally, we have patched-out a number of exploits and crucial bugs. In particular, we have removed the ability to abuse Alt+F4 to disconnect from games, fixed an exploit that allowed players to peek at the opponent’s setup during the tactics phase, and eliminated a bug that permitted free creature upgrades.

Furthermore, we have taken disciplinary action against players who knowingly exploited these vulnerabilities to secure unfair victories, as well as those who encouraged other community members to use them.

⚠️ A Quick Reminder: Intentionally exploiting in-game bugs in competitive play can result in a temporary or permanent multiplayer ban! Engaging in such behavior may also violate the rules of the platform you're playing on, risking a platform-wide ban. Don't jeopardize your account for a dubious advantage — play fair!

Full changelog is below. Good luck on the battlefield!

Changelog

v. 0.80.18

Combat and Creature Behavior

Greetings, Heroes!

We have just released a new patch focused on multiplayer stability, gameplay improvements, and a wide range of fixes across the campaign, user experience, and interface. This patch resolves several causes of desynchronizations and softlocks in online play, reworks certain timer-related mechanics, and introduces additional balance adjustments for difficulty levels and AI behavior.

We have also introduced a new “Moderate” difficulty setting for skirmish maps. Located right between Normal and Hard, it’s designed to help you transition to tougher challenges with ease.

Thank you for your continued feedback and bug reports — they help us keep the game stable and steadily improving. Have a great time exploring Jadame and stay tuned for the next updates!

Changelog

v. 0.80.14

Bug Fixes

Network & Stability

• Fixed a desync issue caused by the “Involuntary Summons” building in loaded saves.

• Fixed a desync issue caused by the “Guild of Six Winds” building.

• Fixed a freeze in loaded saves where simultaneous turns had been interrupted.

• Network lobby & matchmaking:

• Fixed windows closing for players when lobby settings were changed.

• Reconnection timeout after a disconnect reduced from 6 to 4 minutes.

• Improved opponent search in matchmaking.

• Fixed a bug where a player who left a match was not actually removed from it, potentially causing the match to run indefinitely.

• Kicked players no longer appear in the connection issues window.

• Various other network stability improvements.

Timers, Hotseat & UI

• Fixed a bug preventing combat from starting on templates with tournaments and “Hell Light Arena” in hotseat mode.

• Players now receive +5 seconds on the timer after each stack ends its turn in combat.

• Changed the rules for timer penalty accumulation when restarting a match.

• Fixed incorrect display of time spent in the campaign.

• Redesigned building windows on the city construction screen.

• Buildings with a choice are now more prominent: options are displayed separately, and the text indicating a choice must be made has been added to the button.

• Camera tracking has been disabled in the following situations: entering a town and leaving without a hero; dismissing a hero.

Balance

Difficulty levels in the campaign and on random maps have been adjusted:

• A new AI difficulty level has been added to random maps, sitting between Normal and Hard. The full list in ascending order: Easy, Normal, Moderate, Hard, Unfair, and a separate Multiplayer difficulty outside this scale.

• AI behavior on Hard and Unfair difficulties has been slightly adjusted. As these levels are intended to challenge experienced players, AI strength on these difficulties has been increased.

• Balancing of Easy and Normal campaign difficulties is ongoing. Changes have been made to the missions “Never-ending Conflict,” “Burning Hearts,” “Deal with a Vampire,” and “Alvar Diruil.” A mission restart is recommended to apply changes in full.

We will continue monitoring difficulty levels in both the campaign and standard play to ensure every player can find their comfort zone. Keep sharing your feedback in the comments and on social media.

Campaign

General Fixes

• Fixed portrait display for certain characters in the final campaign missions.

Corruption

• Fixed a reward not being granted for one of the side quests.

• Fixed reputation values shown in one of the dialogues.

• Fixed the speaker name on one of the slides.

Scenarios

• “Fun and Graves” — Removed redundant dialogues and made minor map design tweaks.

Localization

• Added descriptions for the new difficulty level.

Greeting, Heroes!

Over the past two days since launch, we've been carefully reading through your reviews and feedback. Your thoughts on AI difficulty were heard loud and clear — and we got to work right away.

Difficulty adjustments

This patch focuses on making the early game experience more enjoyable, especially for those who prefer a relaxed pace. Many of you have expressed concerns that the AI-player was treating you a bit too harshly on Easy and Normal difficulties in custom games. Making the game feel balanced and rewarding for every playstyle is a top priority for us, so we’ve implemented the needed changes.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us — it genuinely shapes how the game evolves.

Changelog

v. 0.80.10

Balance:

Adjusted the AI difficulty for random maps and scenarios:

• Easy. Significantly weakened. The AI will now act very passively, giving players plenty of time for calm, unhurried development.

• Normal. Weakened. The AI is now less aggressive and uses less complex hero and city management (less army transfering between the heroes and the cities, as well as unit upgrading).

• We will continue to monitor AI difficulty across all difficulties and make timely adjustments, including the addition of new difficulty levels if necessary.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug that caused the siege sub-skill text to display an error.

• Fixed an issue where building effects would disappear or display incorrectly during construction.

• Fixed an issue with cloud saves.

• Restored missing tooltips explaining stats within the creature window.

• Fixed the display of the hero window after leveling up during combat.

• Removed the ability to launch scenario maps in the online lobby (this caused desynchronization). However, players can still load old scenario saves in the online lobby, doing so will likely results in errors.

Localization:

• Fixed an incorrect description of the Chant de champignons ability in French.

• Minor typo fixes across various languages.

Greetings everyone!

In the last update we removed the "end turn" hotkey ENTER as per feedback we've received from all of you. However, a small glitch sneaked in that resulted in the other hotkey, E, also getting removed. Our efforts are currently focused on the Early Access build, but we decided to go back and fix this!

If you’ve spent time with the demo, we’d like to hear what you think. We read every comment and review carefully. The small things you point out help us see where the game can improve.

Greetings everyone!

Recently we’ve announced that we’ve just hit 1 000 000 wishlists for Olden Era! However, that is not all!

We’ve gone through all of your recent feedback and the reviews to find some issues you have run into while trying out our Demo that we could quickly fix. We’ve heard that the the computer opponents are a bit too aggressive on lower difficulties so we tweaked them around a bit! You’ve also told us you would like slightly smaller, less resource-packed templates to try out so we added one more template to Classic and Single Hero modes for you to enjoy! Play them over and over — all our templates are used by the Random Map Generator to deliver you a different map result every time!

We’ve done the following changes to address the issues you've reported:

Key changes:

• ** Increased the size of creature icons in the game.**

• ** Added one more template to each game mode: Crossroads and Jebus Outcast.**

• ** Moved the game speed setting to a more visible location.**

• ** On Easy difficulty, the AI now behaves less aggressively.**

Other changes:

• Fixed a level-up bug where the hero would receive an extra skill.

• Fixed a bug with incorrect coloring of town flags and interactive objects.

• Fixed a bug with the Mercenary Guild.

• Fixed a bug where Fungal Iriyad and Flaming Phoenix didn’t create obstacles after their death.

• Fixed an AI freeze during battles with Groll.

• Fixed broken environment objects on the world map.

• Fixed text errors when evaluating resources on the market.

• Fixed a bug where creature stats in battle could go below zero.

• Fixed a bug where it was impossible to open the construction screen in Temple faction towns by clicking on the main building.

• During the tutorial, the second mission is now automatically selected after completing the first one.

• Fixed an issue where the high strength guards protecting the desert biome pathway to the enemy's starting region wouldn't appear on the map at highest difficulty in the Harmony template.

• Fixed a bug that prevented closing interfaces when the quest list was open on screen.

• Fixed an issue with Chinese characters.

• Fixed a disappearing cursor issue after exiting a town.

• Fixed a bug related to saving the game during the AI’s turn.

• Adjusted the contents of the bug report window to improve feedback handling.

• Removed the End Turn hotkey assigned to the Enter key.

• Shift + U hotkey now hides the interface.

• Added the ability to cancel a selected spell in battle by pressing Esc.

• Adjusted the game’s default settings.

Larger changes, such as Interface/UI updates, will require more time and resources from us and will be already included in the Early Access version of the game! We hope that this update will make the Demo even more of a delight for all of you! We do not plan to remove the demo for now but we may take it down in the future. Don't worry though — we'll let you know in advance so that you'll be able to finish your ongoing playthroughs!

Now onwards to glory — there’s still plenty of mysteries to discover in Jadame!
