This world is sour. And here, sourer still – a rotten knot of rust and ruin, boiling beneath the real. A Hollow. Hollows is our upcoming full-length all-singing-all-dancing game which features: If you’ve enjoyed Chris and Grant’s work on Spire and Heart (or indeed one of the dozens of other titles to their names) then […]
Maz said: “Grant, you should write more dev blogs. And not one every seven weeks when you remember; regular ones.” Well – seven weeks on, here’s a dev blog, because I remembered. CORRUPTION I finished Corruption last week. We aren’t doing XP in a normal fashion, because that would be too straightforward, and instead we […]
PAY ATTENTION. Can you feel it? A wretched knot of rust and ruin. A creeping cancer beneath the skin of the real. A wound in the world. A HOLLOW. The Isles – your home, the haggard heart of a lost empire – is beset by them. Sickness, murder, madness and poverty wash across the land in […]
We announced EAT THE REICH earlier this month to thunderous acclaim: but what is it? Details below: THE GAME EAT THE REICH is a pun that got way, way out of hand.

1. Aluminium. The other dragons make fun of it because it’s weaker than they are; it has hollow metal bones, great feathered wings, and its maw is more beak than teeth. Instead of gouts of…

1 – Justice. And not the wishy-washy, platemail-clad shining sword shite that the other paladins talk about – actual, legal, by-the-book justice. You have an encyclopedic knowledge of the laws of the land, which is…
1 – The devil challenges you to a game of your choosing in exchange for a better position in Hell. You can’t “win,” per se, because the devil cheats, but you’re at least in with…
1 – They’re all getting married to each other, simultaneously. (Dwarf marriage is strange.) They need to find wedding dresses, traditional beard cosies (it’s winter) and wedding gifts for one another. Oh, and the roasted…
