- Geneforge 2 - Infestation Kickstarter Launched! - 8 February 2023
We have launched a Kickstarter for our next title, a full remaster of Geneforge 2, released wayyyy back in 2003. Geneforge 2 - Infestation will be the second chapter in the reborn Geneforge Saga. We want to go over it and redo everything, adding new characters, quests, monsters to create, and training paths to scorch (or save) the mountains of Drypeak. We’re really excited about the remasters. The first one, Geneforge 1 - Mutagen, is our best-selling game in a long time, and its follow-up will have a lot of fun new stuff to keep the series fresh for newcomers and old fans alike. The Kickstarter will run for a month, and it has a mix of old and new stretch goals and rewards. Backers can still add content to the game (an experiment which has been a huge success), and, for the first time, you can now get physical Spiderweb merch. We can only still make our odd little games with the support…
