New playable units
- The Crossbow: A ranged unit who shoots arrows from distance.

New maps
The demo now consists of the first 5 levels of the full game.
It starts with a tutorial and then ramps up in difficulty
- The Beginning, a tutorial level to learn the most basic mechanic. Selecting, moving, gaining mana, healing and equipping items.
- The Old Town. A level with many basic enemies but not necessarily a cake walk.
- The Quarry. Introducing more ranged enemies. Defeat the king at the top of the quarry.
- The Gauntlet. You need to make your way through a large number of ranged enemies. Some standing on platforms you cant get to unless you have a character that can jump over the ledges. Reach the elevator with your king and any other units you want. When the elevator leaves any units left behind will die.
- The Trap. You find yourself stuck in a small room. There's a lever that will open the gate but more and more enemies keeps entering. How long can you survive?
Power ups

Added more weapons with more flavours.
For example:
- Cleave attacks: Sometimes damages an extra nearby unit.
- Berserking: Deal more damage when you're low on health.

- Lifesteal: When a unit hits a critical strike the unit heals itself.
- Diagonal strikes: deal more damage to opponents standing in tiles diagonal to the attacker.
High-score
When all the levels have been completed you get a score. Collecting treasures, looting gold and killing enemies grant you a higher score. Dying and taking too many turns reduces your score.

- More settings for camera. Adjust camera movement speed, zoom speed. Hide the green visual squares for where a unit can move.
