Grimtale Island
GRIMTALE ISLAND (the large island) INFO
I would like to talk about the third island
As you know the small and medium island are not to big but are great islands to get started with the game.
The third island called “Grimtale island” is not small, infact this island will take you a very long time to walk from one side to the next. This island contains cities, villages, rivers, airports, Forrest’s and everything else you would expect to find in a real life island! This is your island to explore and survive on. This is the real Grimtale island!
I am extremely excited to show you guys this. And I know you will not be disappointed!
When can you expect this island?
In 3 weeks!
How will you travel around this island?
Use one of the many vehicles that will be around the island!
How will you survive?
Well that’s up to you!
See you soon!

PRICE INCREASE
Okay, so I feel it’s time to increase the price of Grimtale island. I didn’t want to just increase the price without people knowing and seem sneaky about it... as you all know I’m a very transparent dev and will inform you guys of all news good and bad. I feel trust is very important when buying into early access and I know I have gained trust from you guys!
The price will be increased in a week to £9.99, I feel this is a fair price for the constant updates and content that Grimtale island already contains.
I know this doesn’t matter to the people who has already bought the game but I want to let the people either watching or thinking about buying the game know what’s happening.
I hope you understand
Thank you
