The expansion [i]Return of the Old Gods[/i] has just been [b]released today[/b]! To celebrate, we’re introducing two community challenges! They will last for the next 30 days and are primarily intended to create small opportunities for community collaboration in an otherwise single-player game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2982030/Svarogs_Dream__Return_of_the_Old_Gods_Expansion/ [b]Challenge 1: Svarog's Memory Fragments[/b] In the expansion area, you’ll find 47 lost shards of Svarog's memory. Collect 35 of these shards and share a screenshot to qualify for the reward. We had a similar challenge to this one a year ago during the game's release. [b]Reward:[/b] [b]Your name (or username) will be immortalized in the game[/b] on a hidden wall within the expansion area, revealed as part of an Easter egg. [b]Additional Note:[/b] - Pirated copies are not eligible to participate. - We reserve the right to request adjustments to usernames if they are inappropriate. - We won’t provide assistance with this, but sharing information about locations on forums is entirely allowed. [b]Challenge 2: Community Faction Wars[/b] During the campaign, you’ll be prompted to [b]choose a faction to support[/b]: -[b]Order[/b]: House of Faith, House of Coin, or Free People -[b]Chaos[/b]: Underworld Horde, Devourers, or Goblins Each faction choice contributes 1 point toward either Order or Chaos. We’ll use Steam stats to track these contributions globally. Who is winning is displayed on this page: https://www.svarogsdream.com/factions-event [b]The Stakes:[/b] At the end of the challenge, based on the community’s collective choices, we’ll reveal the winner: Order or Chaos. -If Order wins, a special in-game world-event tied to Order will be permanently added to the game. -If Chaos wins, a Chaos-themed world-event will take its place. The losing faction’s world-event will be discarded forever. Both challenges end in 30 days, so don’t miss your chance to participate! Let the battles begin, and [b]may your actions shape the Svarog's Dream forever![/b] [b]Recommended Content Creators[/b] Speaking of the community, let’s highlight some of the content creators we’ve loved watching play our game over the past year or so, who have also shown interest in trying out the expansion. Twitch: [url=https://www.twitch.tv/kormakrtv]Kormakrtv[/url] A talented streamer and voice actor, he brings new life to games without voiceovers. He will be streaming Svarog's Dream on January 14th 1pm CET [url=https://www.twitch.tv/psiax82]psiax82[/url] We loved watching his tactical rogue marksman run last time when he finished the game. He plans to stream the expansion in the near future. [url=https://www.twitch.tv/kaustosis]Kaustosis[/url] He has been with us since the beta. He truly plays games without rushing, immersing himself deeply in the lore while always being humorous and charming.
