- Urgent Fix: Database was corrupt - 23 April 2026
In an earlier fix today, I somehow pushed out a corrupt database which meant that Simplified Chinese and Portuguese players couldn't search or input names properly. I also unfortunately did this right before a long dog walk, so I couldn't fix it for a couple of hours until I got back. It should be fixed now, and to say sorry here is a photo of my dog. https://i.imgur.com/OsreVwD.png - Robin "Evil Trout" Ward

- Now available in Mandarin! - 9 April 2026
In December we launched The Roottrees are Dead in Simplified Chinese, and we were blown away by how well it was received. Within two weeks it had outsold every language except for English, and it continues to be played and well reviewed by new players every day.We wanted to thank our Chinese players by providing an update to the game which includes full voice acting in Mandarin. It is available today as a free game update. This was only possible because of all the Chinese speaking fans and their wonderful support.Of course, if you'd like to stick to the original English voice over, that option still exists. You can customize your own experience with the game.Thanks again, and we hope you will also enjoy our upcoming game, The Incident at Galley House, which will have a Simplified Chinese translation upon release.

- Regional pricing update for Latin America - 23 January 2026
Greetings, genealogists!Over the last year, we’ve learned a few things about our players around the world, including how pricing works in different countries. While Steam provides recommended regional prices, developers can adjust them to better reflect local purchasing power.We’ve taken a close look at how Roottrees is priced in parts of Latin America and lowered our regional pricing to make it more accessible to local players. This changes are now live, and they affect Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay and Steam’s USD-LATAM region.This isn’t meant as a sale or temporary discount, but more like a pricing alignment that makes more sense for the regions we serve.When we set out to create this fictional family, we certainly didn’t expect to be thinking about real-world things like exchange rates and purchasing power parity! But we want as many people as possible to enjoy…
