Welcome to try the new version and share your feedback!
Dear Players,
We're excited to announce that the free demo for PhiloDeka has received a major content update (v0.5.6.67)! The dev team has been closely following your feedback and has made extensive additions and optimizations based on it.
Here are the highlights of this update:
- "Unused Cards" Build (8 Charmstones): Added 8 new Charmstones designed around "Unused Cards" (cards you don't select), allowing your passed-over cards to generate value. (Unlocks after completing Level 9).
- "Pair/General" Build Reinforcement (8 Charmstones): Added 8 new Charmstones to enhance the strategic depth of "Pair" and other general-purpose builds.
- Three Charmstones Get an Upgrade: We've unlocked Level III upgrades for 3 popular Charmstones.
- Freely Toggle Forms: After upgrading, the Charmstone will have two different effect modes. You can freely switch between them before each level to adapt to the situation.
- Level Extension: The game has been extended from 9 to 12 levels, providing more room for your builds to grow.
- New "Zen Select" Feature: You can now enable "Zen Select" mode in the settings, which helps select cards in sequence with a single click, reducing manual clicking.
- Shop Refresh Optimization: We've lowered the Acorn cost for refreshing the shop and increased the number of times you can refresh.
- Balance Adjustments: Tweaked the values of some Charmstones, fixed several bugs, and improved UI details.
We can't wait to see the interesting builds you create with all the new content! Please update your game to experience the new and improved demo.
If you run into any issues or have any thoughts or suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out on our Discord or via the in-game "Feedback" link.
Happy gaming!
