Prince Cobra has extended his domain beyond Serpent Island and for months now has been invading the Turanian Hardlands. Queen Kali, engaged in a war against the other two kingdoms, for the crown of the Known World, does not have enough troops to fight him. She has asked you to cross the Sea of Storms, reach his palace, and put an end to his reign of terror, death, and slavery.
This major new update includes the first additional post-launch adventure: 'The Cobra's Ark'.
Each new adventure allows me to add new mechanics, new encounters, and new items that can appear in the other adventures that were already included, so these also get new improvements and new options.
As for the roadmap, I'll be adding a new playable character class to the game in a few weeks. You can also see the descriptions of the next three adventures to be developed in the game.
Once we reach seven playable quests, I will include a campaign mode for the game.
This new update includes another new set of improvements, changes and additions in addition to the built-in adventure.
