ARSONATE news & patch notes

New Double-Down Mechanic!

Burn an additional card for a chance at earning MORE Utilities at the end of your turn. Only Utility cards payout on the second draw. Double-Down or Stand? Choose wisely... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44872113/20a81299c16ea0e602587bc44f7f9fecd0781743.png

Hatchet Gets an Upgrade!

In addition to the Double Down mechanic, the Hatchet will now INCREASE the Double-Down payout (+2 Utilities per hatchet). The Hatchet will perform its normal "Cancel" effect if STAND is chosen instead. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44872113/f925ce0d843e19892d3f7e7e524015e2a69a3aee.png

The fire tower stands tall in the forest Not a beacon for rangers, but a feast for the flames

Greetings, The flames are burning brightly today — Arsonate is participating in the OTK Winter Game Expo. Hope this fire can warm you up during the chilly winter.  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44872113/84ba543d0241949fc9ef51ee9d1b9dea3861d00a.jpg As you may have noticed, the game has released a demo, which includes an unavailable ONLINE VS option. It doesn’t seem like there’s any need to hide our ambition — the development of multiplayer mode is in progress, and a new host variant is planned to take part in the death game. We need more cremation objects. (Pity.)  Prepare your fire mask and stay tuned for more info.
