To everyone who has tried out Smash Up on Early Access, we have some important news. The final retail release of Smash Up will be published by Asmodee Digital. Please read the following if you have downloaded or purchased a copy on Early Access.
If you have the free version, we aim to make it possible for you to retain that version. If you have purchased DLC content, you will soon become the owner of the brand new premium version of Smash Up which is to be published by Asmodee Digital, a part of the Asmodee Group, one of the world’s biggest publishers and distributors of board games.
Why the move?
Asmodee Digital has a large audience of tabletop game enthusiasts and is creating a digital collection of popular tabletop games. They invited Nomad Games to work with them and add Smash Up to their growing collection, which includes many well-loved titles like Ticket to Ride, Small World, Splendor, Colt Express and more besides. In simple terms, it enables us to reach a greater audience and gives us access to greater know how in the world of tabletop gaming.
You may have noticed we have not been updating the game here recently. This is because we have been working hard on many improvements to the game with input from yourselves, Asmodee Digital, and our QA teams. We are immensely grateful for the comments and suggestions that people have taken the time to post here in Early Access, and to Steam for giving us a place where we can figure out how to make the best game possible.
Please keep an eye out for announcements from Asmodee Digital concerning the full launch of Smash Up. If you are one of the many folks waiting until the game is free of bugs and has an improved level of polish, we hope you will like what you see and join the Smash Up community where players from Steam and mobile platforms will at last be able to play together.
