Announcer Update

Many players have already heard SUR5☢️newest "angelic voice" narrator 🤣🤣🤣 With this change we wanted to make the game experience more rewarding, because we often take for granted how difficult understanding and executing all the high-end combo is.

Safeguard Wildcard

Accumulating a lot of debt makes you think about selling your organs and permanently ruining your health... We absolutely do not recommend this form of payment, but with Safeguard you can never go fully bankrupt

This wildcard was designed as an escape from the unpleasant reality of having 5+ debt in the game... Every mechanic is best enjoyed in moderation and we feel that the debt playstyle is almost balanced. In case it isn't there's the Safeguard 💔💔💔

Embramble Wildcard

Being stuck without any cards to trash in the shop feels bad, but can be foreseen. Using Embramble early on can grow the entire thicket of Brambles by the end of the battle. With these you can change trashing effects into powerful chemical damage!

Embramble🌿will probably become more and more powerful with each Survivor release. It technically can be a win-condition, but it's mostly a tool to encourage searching and digging for a specific cards without being worried that the shop will run out.

Survivor Changes

Pepper

• Back from Ashes combo effect cost has been decreased from 2 to 1 energy,

Boney

• Boney cost increased from 1 to 2 energy. This Survivor was often picked as a "free" concrete waste, without consideration of their ability to recreate cards. We could remove drawing a card effect to keep the cost lower, but because this character is unlocked in early missions we didn't want new players being stuck with useless card that often generate only waste.

Gog & Magog

• Firestarter cost increased from 5 to 6 energy,

Father Redwood

• Unholy Strength cost increased from 4 to 5 energy,

Drowned

• Water Bomb cost increased from 3 to 4 energy,

Dr. Daisy

• Overgrow waste changed from Plastic, Metal to Glass, Concrete.
• Stranglevine waste changed from Glass, Concrete to Plastic, Metal. This swap of Dr.Daisy invade waste was made as a preparation for upcoming Survivors. These combo-invade combinations are being monitored and our goal is to make them as diverse as possible.

Darius the Moderator

• Edge of the World cost decreased from 3 to 2 energy,

Werwernt

• Trample cost decreased from 4 to 2 energy, but combo requires 1 additional energy, Trashing a card in a shop utility is completely ignored due to the high purchase cost. Now the card can be used for both effects and combo can be still executed with just one Fire Barrel.

Kasese

• Kasese cost decreased from 3 to 2 energy, but generates 1 energy per purchase trigger (max 3)

Aru-3

• Downtime cost decreased from 4 to 3 energy.

General Nur ad-Din

• Exploding Pager no longer trashes random cards and combo penetrates 4 enemy armor. This card was difficult to understand and rarely used due to its too specific use-case scenario. We simplified the design, but we will for sure experiment more with random trashing in the future Survivors.

QoL and Bug Fixes

• Fixed bug where announcer incorrectly stated First Blood.
• "user_not_found" message has been properly described.
• Translated General Nur ad-Din cards to Polish language.
• Fixed bug where Electrocute was not highlighting.
• Reward at level 20 was changed from 300 to 150 crystals.
• Rewards at levels 31, 34, 37, 40 have been increased from 50 to 100 credits.
• Switched Tome of Growth with Tome of Destruction unlocking levels.

Thank you once again for reading the article and playing SUR5☢️! Next time we will be talking about upcoming Weekly Quests and dozens of new items which will make the experience more enjoyable ❤️
Happy Holidays!
