• Last Day To Grab Our New Game on Sale! - 16 February 2017

  Hi all! Today is the last day to grab our new game, Evangeline, at its launch discount. It's a short game about love and loss, and it's very special to us. It would mean the world to us if you checked it out! :) - The Raconteur Team

• Our New Game is Out -- FREE! - 19 January 2017

  Hi, Close Order community! It's been a while since our last update. A lot has been going on at Raconteur -- today, we're celebrating the release of our new game Evangeline! It's a game about love and loss inspired by the death of someone close to our founder. Our goal with the game was to connect you with the people you care about most. The best part is it's available completely free at the game's website. Grab it now! A Steam release will happen in February; we released it on our own site initially for reasons that'll make sense once you finish the game. Thank you to our players for being there for us since the start. We think you'll like Evangeline, as well as all the other great things we have planned. Have a great day! - The Raconteur Team

• We Need Your Help! - 13 September 2016

  Good morning everyone! We woke up this morning to find out that Steam has a new system for reviews. In an effort to curb illegitimate reviews and grey market key resellers, Steam no longer shows reviews of games that were done by an account that redeemed a key for the game in question. In short, it limits reviews to only those people who bought the game through Steam -- no longer counting or allowing reviews of people who redeemed a key. This has drastically altered the amount of reviews on Close Order, as many of our players who left reviews - both positive and negative - had been a part of our community from the very beginning (keys given at local events, some of our first people in Early Access), and/or were players who got it through bundles. Today, we come to you all with a humble request: If you bought Close Order, please review the game for us! If you haven't played in a long whi…

• Check Out Our Next Game, Traiteur! - 26 August 2016

  Happy Friday, guys and gals! We've been very quiet the past few months as we've been heads-down working on our brand new game, Traiteur. Today we're excited to let you know that the Steam page is now up! We think it'll be out very early next year, so please make sure to wishlist it and spread the word. :) You can find it here! Thanks to everyone who supported us during the development of Close Order. We won't be doing Early Access for Traiteur, as we're testing throughout the development process and are aiming for a 100% complete release when it launches next year. Can't wait to tell you more soon! - The Raconteur Team

• Welcome to New Players! Tips from the Devs - 26 June 2016

  Hi everyone! The summer sale is upon us, and we wanted to give a warm welcome to the players who are just now joining us for the first time. :) Close Order is a game that we poured our hearts, minds, and souls into -- and it was made better by your fellow players. Here are a few quick tips from the dev team before you jump in! Always have minions -- you can't go it alone! As you defeat more enemies, you'll rack up kills -- these kills eventually unlock additional slots within your armada. Start with 12, end up with 40! If a story mission is too tough, try playing a few rounds of our Survival mode to unlock more slots. Every minion behaves differently, and different minions fit different circumstances. Be sure to read the advanced controls in the FAQ in-game for more! Don't forget that you unlock more minions by progressing through the game. Some players really like the Story missions, w…
