We're attending a presentation and playing a half-hour demo at Gamescom:

Fully playable version of The Dwarves, which, unsurprisingly, puts Dwarves front and center in this game based on the famous novels from German fantasy author Markus Heitz. From the developers of The Book of Unwritten Tales 2, KING Art Games will show brand new gameplay for The Dwarves explaining all three pillars of the gameplay: the intense real-time combat with the need for tactical thinking, the exploration, and dealing with raiding orc parties.

I'm not sure why they've changed their description of the "three pillars" from the original "combat/point and click storytelling/overworld exploration" to this new version - but that's a good thing, because now we already have a question to ask!

Any further questions and requests for our gameplay session can be posted here.

Review codes are going out now. The Codex could ask for one, but I doubt we'll bother.

Ask for one, I'll review it.

Thank you most kindly. Unfortunately, the unfathomable cruelty of the Codex staff has forced me to prioritize the Expeditions: Viking preview instead, which still doesn't have a volunteer after 6 weeks of searching. Sad! We'll have to remedy that before starting any new projects.

Reviews look good, except for one major thing. The game is apparently only 8-10 hours long. That is way too short for an RPG. Damn it, I was looking forward to it as well. But 40 euro is a bit steep for that.
