Today’s patch addresses a number of gameplay fixes and improvements, particularly focused on issues identified by the player community.
Gameplay Improvements
- Tweaked the AI to make it more receptive to fair trade offers. Lower difficulty AI players should also be a bit friendlier and more likely to help in combat.
Bug Fixes
- Significant improvements to connection and stability, reducing the number of times players should experience these kinds of issues during games.
- Players should no longer get stuck in a reconnect loop if they are the last player to time out in a multiplayer game.
- Fixed issues when joining from the Dire Wolf Game Room app, and cases where games would not start when a player tried to join from the Game Room app.
- Restraining Order should now correctly undo Friendly and Dead Broke
- Mobile players should now be able to defeat all Nose-related monsters with Potion of Halitosis.
- Fixed an unlocalized prompt which could appear when an opponent is facing Pack Rat.
- Playing Illusion on Lust Monster should no longer end the combat immediately instead of allowing you to fight the replacement.
- Gummi Golem’s Bad Stuff should now get removed if you’re forced to help in a combat(with Kneepads of Allure, for example).
- Removed the ability to decline Looting a dead Munchkin’s Body. The stink will wash out, we promise!
- Curse! Income Tax should now get properly redirected by Magic Hat.
- Duck of Many Things should now allow you to discard cards from in play in addition to your hand.
- Helper Cleric should can now be able to use its ability to fight the Wannabe Vampire.
- You should now be able to correctly use Dwarf-only Items while affected by Curse! Amnesia if you have a Fake Beard.
- Items affected by Curse! Cursed Thingy should no longer take up hand or other slots if held by a Hireling or attached to a Cheat!
- Stopped the AI from cheating at the Dungeon Casino by under-paying.
- Made the Humiliation achievement possible to achieve using Curse! Dying Curse. Ironic name for a broken achievement, no?
- Piñata no longer has an incorrect prompt header for its Bad Stuff.
- Clarified the language around sending an Ask for Help offer to other players.
- If you add a card to the Charity window and then remove it, it should now have a highlight in your hand to represent it still being legal to give.
Known Issues
- In rare cases, the AI may ask a level 9 Elf for help in combat, unintentionally granting them an easy win.
- A jump-in window to use Take Me! Take Me! is missing before a Bard uses Enthrall.
- Friendly can currently be played on a “Sleeping” monster, which should not be allowed.
