"If you never played King of Dragon Pass, the game will be going on sale for 50% off its $9.99 price for $4.99 starting on October 29th."

Nice. Hopefully that hits the Amazon appstore too.

We have ambitious plans and a small team, so we don’t expect to release anything before 2016.

So expect to see it in 2037 on platforms that non-hipsters use.

First I was thrilled, now I starting to get afraid. Is it going to have a proper PC release or just a shitty port from tablets? Is it going to be dumbed down? Oh God please, I can't take this pressure.

This is what KoDP means to me:

Fifteen years ago, A Sharp’s first game went on sale. King of Dragon Pass was a unique blend of interactive storytelling and resource management, set in the mythical world of Glorantha.

In fifteen years, there has never been another game like it. King of Dragon Pass had its own influences, and has influenced other games. But nothing else interwove stories of politics, culture, and individuals, and tied them together with a living world of magic.

We are now working on a successor, with the working title Six Ages.

Over the years, lots of people asked for a sequel of some sort. The obvious follow-up would be a game that was just King of Dragon Pass with new scenes. I know that some players would be pleased with that, but that never felt like enough. If I’m going to work on something for over a year, the project needs to have at least some novel twist. (It doesn’t have to be as groundbreaking as King of Dragon Pass, which I believe was the first storytelling strategy game!) Over the years I toyed with some ideas, but nothing seemed like it would work. Finally, a few months ago, I had an inspiration.


Unfortunately, I can’t tell you much. Partly that’s because development is still in the early stages. Mostly it’s because Six Ages is an ambitious project, and won’t be released for well over a year. A lot can change in development. And right now, there’s nothing interesting to show anyway.

But I can say that the game will consist of meaningful story choices tied together by the economic challenges facing a small community. It will be set in Glorantha and draw from its rich cultures and mythology. And it’s intended to be highly replayable.

And I’m excited that I will again be working with writer and game designer Robin D. Laws, and artists Jan Pospíšil (who did illustrations for King of Dragon Pass) and Pat Ward (who I worked with at Shenandoah Studio). And when the game is further along, Liana Kerr will again be doing QA.

Good thing they're thinking of crowdfunding. That'll make a PC release a lot more likely.

Hopefully the sequel will be located in Prax, and we will play an animal nomad clan.

Or baboons. I want to play a barbarian baboon warrior.
