Avernum 4: Greed and Glory news & patch notes

We have released the first patch for Avernum 4: Greed and Glory, updated it to v1.0.1. Our indie, turn-based RPG in a vast underworld nation now has a ton of bug fixes and improvements to make your heroic (or greed-filled) journey much more pleasant. Enjoy!

Avernum 4: Greed and Glory v1.0.1 - 10/31/25

* In windowed mode, window will no longer be created too wide. This will make the game more pleasant on extra-wide monitors.

* Problem saving game when user name contained non-ASCII characters fixed.

* You can no longer heal/cure hostile creatures. Enabling this seemed like a good idea at the time …

* Reviving your party no longer removes your light.

* You can now get the quest from LoAnn the giant even if you already have the key.

* Lockpicks use preseeded success rolls. The chance of a pick breaking is now preseeded too. Please don’t worry about reloading your game when you fail to pick a lock. There are plenty of lockpicks.

* Some lamps were mistakenly too expensive.

* Digging up a cache now plays the correct sound.

* The effects of the Unthreatening and Challenger traits have been doubled.

* Terrifying Howl was mistakenly costing spell energy.

* Quick Strikes and Take Aim are stronger.

* Divine Restoration at level 3 now cures mental effects.

* Return Life at higher spell levels now increases the amount of health revived characters have.

* Aura of Comfort is a bit less powerful.

* The Escape and Enter/Return buttons now work on the Pick Locks window.

* Under Cover status is far weaker now and doesn’t affect poison or acid damage.

* A wide assortment of minor tweaks and typo fixes.

Started in 1994, the cult classic Avernum series is one of the great video game sagas. On Wednesday, October 22, Spiderweb Software returns to this unique underworld nation with Avernum 4: Greed and Glory! Coming for Windows and Mac.

Join us at 2 PM PST on Saturday the 25th on the game's Steam page. There, you can see our second (of 2) livestream by the developer, a grumpy indie developer veteran who has been making his odd, low-budget, fun adventures for 31 (!) years. Enjoy learning about the decades-old Avernum series and the indie games business from a fun old crank.

In this new, epic fantasy role-playing adventure, you explore and save (or betray?) an enormous underworld nation. Battle through huge dungeons, fight unique and cunning foes, collect, create, and bless hundreds of different artifacts, and enjoy a really cool story.

Avernum is a nation deep underground, full of huge caves, treacherous labyrinths, and fairylands of alien fungi. Once a prison, it has won its freedom and is now reaching for wealth and glory. However, old enemies from the deepest caves envy Avernum's growing power. You will have to fight to save this new, fragile land (or be well paid to betray it).
