- Star Drifters recap - 13 July 2022
Hello everyone, 👋 you probably wonder why there’s a graphic with a screen taken from the Nintendo Switch 🎮 version of Danger Scavenger. The answer is simple - we wanted to make an announcement summarizing our work done between January and July of 2022 - when we’re writing these words, Driftland is still our most popular franchise. 🌲 Unfortunately, nothing really happened during this period in Driftland camp. Nonetheless, you can get the game in many discounts that pop up every once in a while (usually during Steam/GOG offers/events). But, y’know, there’s always something cookin’. ♨ Be patient. https://store.steampowered.com/app/718650/Driftland_The_Magic_Revival/ Danger Scavenger That’s where the fun starts. First of all - we’re flattered that DS is featured on the back of the Atari VCS box. Ta-da! 🎉 When Steam Deck was on its way, we did everything to make sure that the game would…

- Hello World! - 7 December 2020
We are pleased to invite you to the planet Driftland, where you will play as Nomads fighting for their freedom! The promise to restore civilization to its former shape and return to the times of splendor overcame sadness. It filled the hearts of Driftland's inhabitants with new hope and energy. Determination for action diverted attention from the numerous conflicts between quarrelsome mage-rulers and various injuries sustained by those who did not give in to their will. Outlaw rebels, by the mage-rulers called Nomads, are exterminated and treated as barbarians. They believe that the new order is an attempt to restore balance in shape that has once destroyed the planet. Now, the Nomads must fight to defend their values and survive. About Nomads of Driftland Nomads do not have a ruler and do not carry out orders like other races in the base game. Units are managed directly, like in classi…
