Hello, everyone! We've uploaded the new version of 'Monads'. The major changes are as follows.
Balancing

Players couldn't try as the same condition as the first trial in the challenge mode until chapter 5, because choosing abilities is limited depending on the number of tokens. Now, player characters have all of the opened abilities until chapter 5 regardless of the game mode and the number of tokens.

Convenience

Now you can cancel a skill casting until the turn ends.
There was confusion as 'setting trap' part of chapter 5 tutorial could be passed by only clicking right-down direction, which was non-intuitive. Now you can pass it by clicking upper-right direction also.

Bug Fixes

The phase-bar in order queue is located in the correct position during chapter 2 also.
Image of the protagonist in the loading screen of chapter 20 is located in the correct position now.

Localization

We changed some of the awkward English sentences(especially in scene#1-1 and others).
If you have any suggestion to our game, then please let us know via discussion page or email: [email protected] We'll come back later with new version again. Thank you.
