Fire blast! Version 0.3 just went live!
To celebrate release of this update we will put Realms of Magic on 10% discount for one week, the discount will start on 22/03 at 18:00 GMT+1, about 24 hours after release of this post.
If you haven't already seen Version 0.3 Preview we recommend checking it out here.
Every major feature and change is backwards compatible so you can continue playing on your current save, however we would recommend creating a new character, as we believe that you will have better experience starting from scratch.
