Hi folks!
v1.04 is now out! It is a smaller patch with mostly bugfixes plus balance tweaks for Pirate's Cove. We will keep looking at balance in the expansion so suggestions are welcome.
As always, thanks for your continued support! Full patch notes are below and our roadmap for future work is here.
Thanks!

Pirate's Cove quest changes
- Skull Cave, Quest 3: Tweaked level layout so you can choose to reach the boss before the end of the countdown.
- Broken Boat, Quest 2: Shortened the quest by simplifying starting layout and changed the objective from 4 to 3 Giant Crabs.
- Sand Fortress, Quest 1: Slightly tweaked the layout to reduce backtracking. Objective changed from 4 to 3 Giant Crabs.
- Sand Fortress, Quest 2: Removed corridor tiles beside starting point to give the players more freedom in designing the layout of their dungeon and avoid frustration in the early turns.
- Big Booty, Quest 3: Tweaked level layout so you can choose to reach the boss before the end of the countdown.
- Waterfall Bay, Quest 1: Tweaked the layout so there's an easier way to reach the pearls that doesn't require as much backtracking
Pirate's Cove balance & additions
- H2Omancer trait 'High Tide' changed to trigger when your discard pile has 3+ cards in it (was 4+)
- Oarsman L1 monster had health reduced by 1
- The final quest now has lovely ocean tiles around the pirate ship
- We added a bunch of sound effects for all the new monsters (when placed)
OST upgraded
- For owners of the OST (included in the Deluxe edition) we've added three songs to it. There's two variations of the new Pirate's Cove background tune (Monkeying Around) plus the special pirate shanty from our trailer (Sailing Away To Pirates Cove). You get these even if you don't own the expansion!
