Hi everyone!

If you’ve been waiting for the very right moment, then here it comes: you can get Black Book with a 55% discount during the next week. Why not indulge yourself or your friends and plunge into the enigmatic world of slavic folktales in the heat of spring?

Besides, Black Book has launched on iOS - if you still have doubts, you can now play the endless mode, the prologue and the entire first chapter of the game for free, all on your phone.

Finally, we wanted to quickly mention a game in development by our friends - a space roguelike RPG called Quasimorphosis. It’s dark, tactical and tough - there’s a good chance you’ll love it, so be sure to wishlist the game if it piques your interest!

Hi everyone!

As you may already know, our latest DLC giveaway didn’t go very well - it wasn’t set up properly, and the DLC ended up having "free limited-time access" instead of promised "free to keep" status. We sincerely apologize for that, and for not properly getting in touch with you - we’ve been waiting for Valve’s response on this matter, so that a real solution can be provided rather than mere apologies. Now everything is settled, and we’re ready to share good news!

The Endless Battles DLC is now available for free again - add it to your Steam library until November 1, and it will remain there forever. For real now :)

A quick reminder: the Endless Battles is a challenge to your tactical and strategical ability. Help Vasilisa reach the depths of Hell and face Evil itself, in just three days. There are a few paths down below, however, all changing during the night. Your journey will not be easy...and full of combat.

Have a great day, and good luck descending into the pitch-black darkness of Hell!

Cherdyn is abuzz with whispers again…a famous knower embarks on a journey into the very depths of Hell, but this time, she has no time. It’s all or nothing. Will she make it? That is up to you alone.

https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/1879710/Black_Book__Endless_Battles/

The Endless Battles DLC is a new rogue-like mode available as a separate game mode in Black Book. This time, the entire focus is on card-based combat, your preparation skills, and tactical acumen. Vasilisa will have only three days to reach her final destination: the battle with Satan himself.

Coming Feb 18, 2022 for $4.99

To reach the end goal, you will have to travel down the branching paths that change every night. Combat against minions and bosses alike, bind your Black Book to have the right spell combinations, and don’t forget about the trinkets! A well-chosen charm will be the difference between life and death.

You can also expect new music, events, and new challenges. This will not be an easy journey. You will try to make it, and you will fail…only to rise again, stronger and smarter.

Add the Endless Battles to your wishlist, and we’ll see you in Cherdyn again, knower!
