Patch notes

Hi folks,

We have just released Springtime Scramble, a brand new mini-expansion for DemonCrawl!

This update includes the following content:

  • A whopping 40 new items
  • New special stage: the Item Tree
  • New stranger: the  Scientist
  • A new mechanic that allows you to enchant cells
  • The Evasion stat which gives you a chance to dodge monsters as well as "on reveal" effects
  • 5 new stage mods
  • 2 new Mythic Emblems
  • A handful of reworked items
  • New original music

Best of all, it's free of charge. 😎

Additionally, Springtime Scramble marks the beginning of DemonCrawl's annual Easter event (fashionably late, I know...) which will run through the remainder of April.

We have added 10 new holiday avatars for you to collect! If you manage to complete all the standard holiday missions, you will unlock a final "extra" mission that will challenge your puzzle-solving abilities. (Similar to last year's Halloween event.)

Full patch notes are available below.

Have fun! 🐰
