Haarlem, The Netherlands – April 24, 2014 – Iceberg Interactive and award-winning indie studio Amplitude Studios herald the arrival today of the Alpha build of its gorgeous new 4X fantasy strategy game, Endless Legend, now available on Steam’s Early Access Program. Following 2012’s seminal 4X space-strategy title, Endless Space, Endless Legend is set in the same Endless universe, and offers players the chance to develop a fantasy civilization through seamless turn-based combat on the dying planet of Auriga. Players have the ability to pick one of eight beautifully crafted factions, thrust heroes into tactical battle using a variety of strategic terrain, develop technological and political power, and conquer the planet through diplomatic or military means.

“We have poured our hearts and souls into making Endless Legend,” said Romain De Waulbert, creative director, Amplitude Studios. “And we believe gamers familiar with Endless Space will see we’ve listened to their feedback and will enjoy the totally new seasoned approach we’ve taken.”

“With Endless Legend, Amplitude Studios continues to prove why it is a talented and remarkable studio,” said Erik Schreuder, CEO Iceberg Interactive. “Endless Legend is an enormous game with a distinct art style and incredible replay value, as demonstrated even in the Steam Early Access version.”

Endless Legend is a turn-based 4X fantasy strategy game that takes place on the planet Auriga, a once-beautiful planet destroyed in a massive cataclysm. Players build their nations through tactical, military, and political means on randomly generated, hexagonal worlds of varying altitudes with the ultimate goal of developing the most powerful civilization on the planet. Gamers will encounter long harsh seasons, assimilate smaller factions into the mix to increase their chances in war, fight battles with a variety of powerful heroes, and create a robust economy using Dust (money), food, production, science, and more.

• Single or Multiplayer: Endless Legend takes place in the Endless Universe and employs new twists on combat, pacing, events, environment and single- and multiplayer gaming for one to eight players.
• Eight fantastic, unconventional factions – including the Vaulters, Broken Lords, and the Wild Walkers – create a distinct take on the over-used ‘Tolkien-esque stereotypes.’ For the Alpha build, players can select three out of the eight factions and advance through the use of weaponry, technology, and other “Endless” elements, such as the Dust as per Endless Space.
• Minor Factions: Of the 16 minor factions, 10 are currently available in the Alpha build for players to incorporate into their empire.
• Research around 100 technologies across four eras through quests and research, while collecting Dust, luxuries, and strategic resources tradable at the marketplace.
• Eight potential win scenarios for players experience through culture, trade and conquest. Example of a win: One enables your race to discover an ancient spaceship, leave the planet, and become and embryonic version of one of Endless Space’s galactic factions.
• Endless Legend does away with skill trees with branching paths, instead enabling players to accumulate enough experience to advance to the next age without linear paths to follow.
• Explore unknown territory by sending heroes into every corner of the world to find mysterious artifacts to equip troops.

The Classic Pack (currently on sale at $26.24) includes:

Wadjet Eye Games’ Long-Running Blackwell Adventure Series Concludes Today with The Blackwell Epiphany

PC download available for $14.99; series will debut for iPhone and iPad in June

NEW YORK – April 24, 2014 – Independent developer Wadjet Eye Games is proud to announce that The Blackwell Epiphany is now available as a PC download. This final installment in their flagship Blackwell mystery adventure series sells for $14.99 from Wadjet Eye’s website, Steam, and GOG.

When her aunt Lauren died, Rosa Blackwell inherited a unique family legacy: the companionship of a jazz era ghost named Joey Mallone and a talent for helping the recently-dead cross over to the other side. Through four previous adventures — The Blackwell Legacy, Blackwell Unbound, Blackwell Convergence, and Blackwell Deception — players have seen the toll this work takes on the women of the Blackwell family. So far Rosa has managed to hang on to her soul and her sanity, helping numerous spirits along the way. But that’s about to change in The Blackwell Epiphany when she and Joey go up against a malevolent force that literally tears souls apart. Is their partnership strong enough to withstand this final trial?

The Blackwell games are mystery adventures with point-and-click investigative gameplay and retro-styled pixel art graphics reminiscent of the classic Sierra and LucasArts adventure games. Each installment has a self-contained plot that can be enjoyed independently, with an overarching series storyline following Rosa’s transition from skeptical newbie to seasoned medium. Likewise, The Blackwell Epiphany is designed to stand on its own while providing bittersweet closure for players who have been with Rosa and Joey from the beginning. For those who want to catch up on the adventure before embarking on the finale, the earlier Blackwell games are available individually or in a 4-pack bundle: http://www.wadjeteyegames.com/store/

The Blackwell Epiphany can be purchased from the following online stores:

• Wadjet Eye Games: http://www.wadjeteyegames.com/games/blackwell-epiphany/
