Today marks the official launch of Bonesaw 1.0, with the addition of the new Ultimate game mode!
To celebrate, you can get Bonesaw at 25% off for a limited time!
With today's update, we are officially closing our Early Access Roadmap. Over the last four months of development, we added even more features than originally planned, such as the Sheriff, designed to help ease new players into the game.
Ultimate Gamemode
The final challenge of the Devil introduces additional mechanics to Bonesaw. At the start of each new round, you must choose a modifier (a curse) that will persist for the rest of the game. These modifiers stack, making it increasingly difficult to defeat the Devil. This is no walk in the parc and the Devil is waiting!
A Letter From the Devs
Bonesaw will always hold a special place in our hearts. It will forever be our first independently released project on Steam. We learned so much from the experience and cherished every moment of it. We hope you enjoy this final update as much as we enjoyed creating it. From the very start of this journey, our goal was to be responsive to your feedback, explore new and creative ways to approach strategy games, and passionately build an immersive world. We sincerely hope we succeeded.
A huge thank you to all our players for the amazing support and feedback throughout Early Access.
—Sam and David

Changes:
- Steal Chip Rework: A stolen chip can no longer be discarded by clicking it again, it must be played. Now, when using Steal a Chip, you’ll see a preview of what can be stolen from your opponent based on the context.
