Hello Willowguards! It's been a little second, but we've kept busy in our burrows. First things first - version 1.7! It's not quite the content update we would've wanted, but there was so much bug-fixing and balancing work being done under the hood, that we thought it best to giv
Hello Willowguards! Just a quick note to let you know, in honour of Next Fest and of the upcoming Steam Summer Sale, we'll be re-releasing the Willow Guard demo, in a slightly shorter format. Previously, the demo was the -entire first day- of the game, which was perhaps a little
Hello Willowguards! This update has two updates in it: an update for Willow Guard, bringing with it a bunch of fixes and small additions, AND, an update on Willow Guard™! First the boring regular stuff, i.e., the changelog: Version 1.6.7 Fixed a bug where the companion would some
Hello Willowguards! After a little delay, here's patch 1.6.6, which addresses a number of niggling issues (thank you for all the reports). You might also bump into some new nasties on your adventures through the Atalakas, and some of the boss encounters may be a little more chall
Happy Labor Day/Vappu/May First to those to celebrate! Willow Guard has been nominated in the category of Finnish Game of the Year 2025, and will be present during the award gala in Helsinki this upcoming May 21. We're super stoked to be included, although the competition is fier
Hello Willowguards! After a few quick patches to smooth things out, here comes a slightly larger one to fix a few bigger issues. Importantly, this fixes an issue in the very final levels that made it impossible to, you know, actually FINISH the DLC. But that should now be possibl
- Fixed companion not following and enemy AI no longer working after a second. - Fixed broken Shrapnel and Void bombs. Known issue: randomly the first Alteros level will, upon completion, teleport you to a dark void. Playing it again fixes it. We are aware, we just wanted this pa
- Fixed not receiving a certain reward after a certain fight, and again, stopping progress. Now you can continue.

- Fixed black screen of nothing after finishing the first post-tutorial level. - Fixed a few typos (also a few in the OG game!) Edit: Also fixed the original shame patch bug, so now the tutorial should be playable 'as intended'! NB: Remember to activate the DLC after you buy it (
Oops! Seems like we managed to bug out our game right in the tutorial. While waiting for a more definite fix, please enjoy patch 1.6.4.1 which adds a little extra dispenser for you to pass the bug, or, alternatively, a chance to skip the tutorial entirely (just click "abort dunge
Hello Willowguards! The day is finally upon us, and we're pleased to announce the release of the (first?) DLC for Willow Guard: Frostreign. Follow out intrepid hero across the frozen Atalaka mountains, uncover mysteries, and fight increasingly dangerous and hostile monsters as yo

Hello Willowguards! About a year ago, we released Willow Guard, after a lot of sweat and tears. You played it, you broke it, and some of you played all the way through. Since then we've been steadily improving and fixing it, adding new content (new characters, new quests, new dun
Greetings Willowguards! We're currently participating in Steam's Women's Day Sale (courtesy of Wings), with an unprecedented -30% off until March 15th! Excited for the DLC? Guess what - you actually have to play through the full game first before you can get to the new content! S
Hello Willowguards! Although we're all extremely busy with a certain exciting DLC, we're also fiddling with the base game whenever we have a chance. This update is small but sturdy, and also contains some new maps! Changelog: Added a new Hunt: Ruined Maze , unlockable after you'v
Hello Willowguards! Hopefully you have all had a pleasant holiday season, and have managed to slay many, many monsters during it. Or rested, I guess. We definitely have, but now that we're back in action again, exciting things are coming! Watch this space for news! In the meantim
