What’s in the DEMO
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2712830/First_Dwarf/
In First Dwarf Demo you take on the role of Dwarf Tru and go fulfill the mission given to you by your Clan of the Northern Dwarves. Find the new and safe home for the settlers, after making sure that the uncharted lands of Driftland are ready to inhabit.
On this amazing journey you’re accompanied by a sassy Dragon, Ragna. She can help you with her fire breath and ability to fly to the various places that are out of Mech’s and Tru’s reach. Change freely through characters and use their different skills!
Fight dangerous monsters and build the greatest colony that will endure the attacks of your enemies! Build defensive walls and turrets that will help you destroy your opponents. 💥
It’s an introduction to our game, where you’ll get to know our dear characters, learn the main mechanics, like building, combat and crafting and have a great time!
Single and co-op mode 🙋🙋
You can play our Demo with a friend! Free Demo version supports local multiplayer with splitscreen as well as online multiplayer through Steam. Please keep in mind that we’re still working on it!

- New animations for the settlers
- Side quest “Eskoim Secret Weapon”

- Doubled speed of repairing and mana extraction
- Added popup tutorials for:
- High Jump
- Rising Settlement
- Switching Characters

New voices of Tru and Ragna ❓❗
YES! Hold on tight, because that's a BIG NEWS!
For the first time you can hear the brand new voices of our main characters! We heard your opinions and made that change one of our main priorities for the demo release.
Soon we’ll give you more info about our voice actors. We’re very curious about your thoughts after hearing them!
