Game update: difficulty levels customization & new challenges

Laysara: Summit Kingdom

Build and expand your very own settlements in high mountains! Carefully plan production chains and satisfy various needs of your three-caste society while dealing with mountain hazards such as weather breakdowns and avalanches. Are you skilled enough to make your town thrive?

Hey, hey! We’ve just introduced a new feature to the game: difficulty level customization! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41623538/788b49f25972748995d13152a87e6700742c9bde.png[/img] In this new menu, you can customize numerous gameplay parameters and tailor the playing experience to exactly your liking! Not a big fan of avalanches? Turn them off. Annoyed by short building ranges? Expand them! Enjoy the game in a way that works for you :) [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41623538/f0af1153280f8fd255ed0a038a8bd92689c1d084.png[/img] Also, a “side effect” of adding this menu is the ability to see what exactly changes based on a difficulty level. If you want to dig deep, you can see all the numbers and modifiers that are affecting your playthroughs. [h3]New challenges[/h3] We’ve also added two new challenges: [b]Peace and Profit[/b] and [b]Ultimate Insight[/b], both on two brand new (albeit small) mountains that can also be played on in Creative mode. They will also make an appearance in a different game mode in the future, but it’s too early to talk about that! :) [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41623538/e4725e27845891fa49a5fb6a121fbb7a87908adf.png[/img] The [b]Peace and Profit[/b] challenge forces you to get the most out of the fertile and rivers-rich mountain called Rivergreen Knoll. In this challenge, you need to achieve a highly positive money balance, but Donations Spots are not available! So, it’s all about exporting what you can. The [b]Ultimate Insight[/b] challenge on the other hand is focused solely on Monks and getting to the high research levels. The mountain for this challenge, The Enclave, offers the perfect spots for building astounding monastery complexes… but not much more. Also, this challenge has a little twist: you have a fixed number of Lowlanders and Artisans at the start and you cannot increase their population - you have to use this workforce in a most efficient way! And that’s all we’ve got for you this time :) We’re back from vacation and we’re already working on new gameplay features that we’ll be adding to the game soon. Thanks for all the feedback and support! Quite OK Team PS: To see if you have the latest patch, check the ID of your current game version by holding [b]Left Alt[/b] in the Main Menu. If it's not the latest ID (14133), restart Steam - this will force it to detect the update.
