About LIFE IS STRANGE: DOUBLE EXPOSURE:

Max Caulfield, photographer-in-residence at the prestigious Caledon University, discovers her closest new friend, Safi, dead in the snow. Murdered. To save her, Max tries to Rewind time – a power she’s not used in years… instead, Max opens the way to a parallel timeline where Safi is still alive, and still in danger! Max realizes the killer will soon strike again – in both versions of reality. Only Max can Shift between the two parallel timelines to solve and prevent the same murder.

Quivers and Dual Wield Weapons Blueprints Added

Attention, Shopkeepers and Soldiers! Roland Knecht (The Veteran) has arrived as the newest Premium Worker in Kabam’s free-to-play Tycoon Simulation/Cozy Crafting RPG game.

A renowned drill instructor hailing from many battlefields and ready to settle in more peaceful pastures, The Veteran brings a wealth of military knowledge, including the ability to craft Dual Wield Weapons and Quivers. In addition, his Premium Worker ability allows players to replace a skill with any skill of your choice. The only restrictions are that it must be a skill that Hero can learn normally, and one that is not already known to the Hero. It can be any skill slot and any skill rarity. All Heroes, new and old, can benefit from this effect once each.

Check Out Shop Titans YouTube Short “Roland Comes to Town” below

Alongside The Veteran’s arrival in game, the new 18.0 content update in Shop Titans brings a whole wave of new features, events, upgrades, and more:

• New Blueprint Type – Dual Wield
  • This may be Shop Titans most unique item type yet!
  • From a crafting point of view, Dual Wield is its own blueprint line, with its own Ascension Milestones and Advanced Research.
    • For example, the Crystal Destroyers is a Dual Wield blueprint featuring an Axe and a Mace. The result is a single item (Crystal Destroyers) that can be sold and equipped normally, benefitting from Dual Wield crafting upgrades, but not from Axe or Mace ones.
  • From a Heroes point of view, no Hero class can explicitly equip Dual Wield items. So long as they can normally wield one of the weapons part of the Dual Wield, they can wield it!
    • For example, a Cleric could equip the Crystal Destroyers, even if they can’t normally use Axes.
    • For Hero skills, while no skill specifically enhances Dual Wield, other skills such as Mace Master would grant their full bonus to the Crystal Destroyers.
    • Similarly, a Thief (with its innate bonus to Daggers) with the Sword Master skill would receive the benefit of both skills if equipped with a Sword/Dagger Dual Wield item.
    • Do keep in mind however that a single skill (e.g Warlord) will never grant its bonus twice.

• New Blueprint Type – Quivers
  • Even in a world where ammo is infinite, quivers bring quite the bundle with arrows, bolts and bullets to provide a bonus to your Heroes. These can only be equipped alongside a Gun, Crossbow or Bow.
  • The Quiver bears a special affinity for Bows, which gain a 30% item bonus when equipped alongside a quiver. One cannot name a more iconic duo, after all!
  • Rest assured however that Guns, Crossbows and Bows can still function without the help of a quiver if one prefers.

• Guild Finder Overhaul
  • The Guild Finder algorithm has been overhauled to more accurately find guilds suitable for the user.
  • Improvements for the Member Finder are also currently being worked on, which should help guilds find members from non-active guilds.
• Additional Updates and Promotions

• New balance changes such as Druidic Grimoire Ascension upgrades.
• The Guild’s Choice option has been restored to the guild settings.
• The Scholar now shows up at level 15.
• 3 guild upgrades have been added to increase the amount of bounties available at once.
• Special rule explanations have been added within the blueprint details of relevant items.
• Various balance changes for Druidic Grimoire Ascension upgrades and select bounties.
• Promo Code Web Redemption via the official Shop Titans website.
• Various bug fixes, and more!

As a reminder, Shop Titans also has various Halloween themed content and events taking place, including the Halloween Collection (ending November 1) and Zombie Shoppers (on October 31). To get the best bargains on the newest Premium Worker, gems and more, visit the Shop Titans store at https://playshoptitans.com/store. 

Celebrating its 5th Anniversary this year, Shop Titans (rated T for Teen by the ESRB) is a free-to-play Tycoon Simulation, Light Adventure RPG game on mobile and PC platforms. Set in a fantasy world filled with hilarious character-driven banter between their Champions and city Workers, players can become a fantasy shop tycoon by crafting epic weapons, managing a store to success, and building a team of adventurers to quest for loot. Find out why players are raving about the game and giving it 5 stars! Shop Titans is available now to download free on the App Store, Google Play, Steam, Microsoft Store, and Epic Games Store.

Players are invited to visit Shop Titans today to enjoy these latest content updates and The Veteran as the newest Premium Worker. For further information, please visit Shop Titans’ official website, Facebook, X, Instagram, and YouTube.

October 28th, Vilnius, Lithuania – Autumn Moon Games and Tag of Joy are thrilled to announce their collaboration on the highly anticipated supernatural point-and-click adventure A Vampyre Story: A Bat’s Tale, which is now available to be wishlisted on Steam.

Add the game to your Steam wishlist (https://store.steampowered.com/app/3273370/A_Vampyre_Story_A_Bats_Tale/).

Return to the world of A Vampyre Story in a new gorgeous supernatural comedy adventure! Bill Tiller (The Curse of Monkey Island, The Dig), Dave Harris, and other ex-LucasArts veterans join forces with Tag of Joy, the team behind the 2022 award-winning point-and-click game Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit, to deliver an exciting and fresh addition to the adventure genre!

ABOUT A VAMPYRE STORY: A BAT’S TALE

A Vampyre Story: A Bat’s Tale follows Mona, a Parisian opera singer kidnapped and taken to a castle in Draxsylvania where she is turned into a vampire. Fortunately, she’s aided by her loyal companion, a wisecracking bat named Froderick. Guide both Froderick and Mona through a landscape of crazy characters, clever puzzles, and gorgeous locations, including Dr. Legume’s Home for the Sanity Challenged, the Executioner’s Practice Grounds, the Mortus Labs™, and many others! It will be up to the player to help Mona escape the clutches of a mad scientist and stop his evil plan, find a vampire familiar, and continue her quest to return home.

“I love LucasArts graphic adventures, Halloween, and the classic Universal Monster movies of the 40’s and 50’s. So when I created the original A Vampyre Story, I combined all those things I love together. Since its release, adventure game technology has vastly improved, and by partnering with Tag of Joy, we’ll be able to continue the story of Mona and Froderick in a modern gaming experience that also still evokes the feel of a classic LucasArts graphic adventure,” says Bill Tiller, CEO, and Creative Director of Autumn Moon Games. “I couldn’t be more excited about our collaboration. With Tag of Joy’s help, we raised enough funding to finally kick off the development of the new game, so it’s amazing to announce that this is finally happening!”

“My brother and I came of age playing games like The Curse of Monkey Island and have released a modern point-and-click adventure ourselves, so when we learned that Bill was looking to resurrect his A Vampyre Story franchise, we reached out and suggested a collaboration. We are super excited that Bill agreed, and he’s also really friendly and easy to work with!” says Šarūnas Ledas, the CEO and co-founder of Tag of Joy. “Bill’s knowledge, beautiful artwork, and a very fun IP combined with our team’s recent experience in creating a 2.5D adventure makes a perfect mix.”

The new installment in the A Vampyre Story series welcomes new and returning players alike. The collaboration promises beautiful hand-painted environments mixed with stylized 3D art and visual effects, tons of animation and cinematics, a diverse group of characters, funny dialogue, and a thrilling story packed with engaging puzzles.
