Hello there! Welcome to the development blog of Tafl Champions: Ancient Chess!
That’s correct – the game isn’t dead but it’s fair to say it isn’t exactly booming. Rest assured that’s all about to change.
If you’re unfamiliar with what Tafl Champions: Ancient Chess is here’s the TLDR:
it’s a free to play video game that allows you to play an ancient board game popularised by the Vikings, a style of game called Tafl.
It was released back in October 2021 and is available on Steam, the Apple App Store and Google Play. Since then it’s had a few quality of life and maintenance updates but nothing significant.
So why a development blog for a game that’s already launched? Well the simple answer is that a significant update is planned for the near future and I thought it would be a good idea to let you know what’s in the pipeline. I’m super excited for it and I hope you will be too.
I will be posting regularly about the progress made along with some insights into the story of Tafl Champions and the decisions made. Be sure to check back regularly so you don’t miss any updates! There’s even a Discord server if you’d like to chat to other players!
There’s also an IndieGogo campaign running at the moment which will significantly help speed up development and improve the overall quality of the game. If you can spare anything to help it would be greatly appreciated!
I hope you join me on this journey to bring this exciting new update to Tafl Champions and make it the tafl game to play!
