Giving Graveyard Keeper away for free apparently earned its publisher ‘almost 250k’

Graveyard Keeper 2 was announced at the Triple-I Initiative, leading to the original game being offered for free for a limited time to attract new players. This strategy resulted in nearly 0,000 in DLC sales on Steam, where the DLC is currently discounted by 80%. The giveaway successfully highlighted the sequel, which has become one of Steam's top 100 most-wishlisted games with 450,000 wishlists. Some players expressed concerns about the artistic direction of the sequel, fearing a shift to a more generic style, but developers assured fans that AI is not being used in the game's development.

After 4 hours of pirate survival in Windrose, I’m reinstalling Sea of Thieves

After four hours of gameplay in Windrose, the player has engaged in activities such as felling trees, collecting seashells, and constructing grass huts, while also facing challenges from various creatures. The player is currently stranded on an archipelago and must rescue their crew from different islands. Windrose has seen nearly 70,000 concurrent players and received around 1,500 positive reviews on its first day on Steam, despite being in early access. The game lacks a wind system for sailing, and the player feels it resembles a survival game with pirate aesthetics rather than an authentic pirate experience. In contrast, Sea of Thieves is noted for capturing the essence of piracy through its multiplayer experience and physical gameplay mechanics. Sea of Thieves has evolved over time with new content and features, while Windrose has faced technical issues that hinder the experience. The player expresses skepticism about investing time into Windrose, despite the potential for building a pirate fortress.
