Sneak Peek – Beyond the Bard’s Tale

bard_xmasIt’s time to once more add new features to Silversword, to enhance your Bard’s Tale adventure spirit. Things to come (after christmas, with the next update): Weaknesses and immunities to certain elements like fire, ice, poison, divine magic etc. — this should make some challenges more interesting and give me more opportunities of adding new spells. In addition, some more creatures are waiting for you on yet uncharted lands… happy holidays and best wishes for 2014!

Thank you for your support
Yours faithfully
Mario

Lisa could not see any details, because sea and sand had rubbed the coin.
She looked across the sea. A sudden longing seized her and pulled her into the distance. Did she just see dark shadows on the horizon? Shadows of palm trees, mysterious forests and mountains? Unexplored caves with sparkling beads and treasures waiting for her.
But she had to hurry, otherwise the others would probably be faster and she would once more be the poor silly girl.
Yes, this time it was her turn. The coin had found her. With the treasure she could give her family a better future. But first she would buy new clothes. And a private boat. And maybe a little hut on the beach.
When fisherman John got up the next morning to catch the fish for today, he was very surprised that his boat was gone. He was even more surprised when he got no response to the calls for his daughter…

"I got goosebumps while reading through the manual for the first time. iOS devs just don't make games on this scale. It's such a poetic app."
