hello dev punch donuts I want to say I like playing your game. and now I hope this game doesn't have features from other games like /Cheating/ or /Netorare.
and for me your game is in the best top 1 thank you for making this game i love so much
There is no NTR in my game. There is also no cheating technically. Occasionally Korvald FEELS like he's cheating on his dead wife, but that is as far as it goes.
Kara's story is left on a cliffhanger at the end. You will see her again in the next game. The remaining content updates will start becoming available in the next month. I am adding more allies and adding sex scenes for the secret characters that don't currently have any. More weapons, runes, and skills too.
Named allies like Zhedha, Kara and Ingrid can't be seduced in battle. They all have special events or places where it's possible. Only normal enemies can be seduced on the go.
i just bought the patreon version assuming thats the full game or just the patreon version of the demo?
When it gets released on steam will there be achievements? and if the Patreon version will count as buying the full game, would i get the steam version as well so i can unlock the maybe achiev?
Thanks in advance and most especially for the great work youre doing with this game! im loving it
I appreciate the kind words, thank you! The Patreon version is simply the special version of the demo that my patrons receive. I put that on here so people could just buy it rather than sub to me on Patreon if they choose.
The Steam version WILL have plenty of achievements. I am actually in the process right now of getting them created for the game and there are around 30 so far. I plan to launch with about 40 to 50 achievements ready to go.
The game is good and I will buy it in steam,but can you join Chinese in language,even use AI to translae,it is really hard for me to understand the story,by the way,I want to know the final price in steam
Excellent game that blends old-school gameplay with new mechanics, crisp graphics with beautiful locations, complex gameworld and a great story. Haven't played all of it yet but I would simply love to have one or several mother and son incest couples present caputured or hiding. Not much else to say for now except keep up this awesome work!
"The game is fun but way too easy, in my opinion. I'm kind of good at this kind of game, so I may not speak for everyone, but I find it weird that I couldn't die a single time. The enemy damage was too weak, in my opinion. The sex scenes were nice, though."
Thank you for the kind words, I am glad you enjoyed the demo. Regarding the difficulty, I can tell you that the combat/enemy damage/etc in the full version (which is nearly finished) has been drastically improved and balanced. The demo IS pretty easy, I kind of left Korvald as a juggernaut so that people trying the game could have a nice stress free tour of things.
Stay tuned for the full version, you won't regret it.
Snouldn't "Charlemagne" instead of french prounouncation called german or latin way, "Karl der Grosse" or "Karolus Magnus"?
The game takes place in Skandinavia, there was no french speakers here, and king Karl himelf came from german and latin speaking elite. It sorta breaks the immersion, that person wasn't called modern anglo-french way in this region especially when he was alive.
That is a good catch. I'll be honest, I didn't think that far into it. To be fair though, none of the dialog is spoken in a way that would have been accurate for the 9th century. I took a LOT of creative liberties with real history. For example...
- The real Ribe cathedral is only the size of a chapel (not a sprawling fortress like in the game).
- The real Hrotsvitha did not look like a smoking hot librarian, nor could she speak all languages fluently.
- The real Hjortvad and Skov locations in Denmark are laughably nothing like in the game.
- Jelling is a hell of a lot farther North from Ribe than the game depicts.
- There are templars. There is no reason that templars would be wandering around Denmark a century before their establishment in Jerusalem.
And many more things I have twisted around just for the lulz.
Mine isn't so much of a historical nitpick, more of stylistical. IMO the French spelling of Karl's name sorta stand out from the rest of this Germanesque fantasy setting. You know: Hrotsvitha, Hjortvad and then ... Charlemagne for a dude even was a Germanic king. Maybe even better call him "Karl the Great", it will be understandable for a general public and will be able to denote as if chars speaking their native languages and it is translated to English (or whatever localization are chosen) for our convenience.
In short I thought that French spelling of his name not fit the setting.
Across demo versions, yes. When the completed game comes out on Steam, demo saves will not work in the full release and vice versa. (though I am not sure why someone would try to load a save from the full version into a demo version)
I think the Patreon version update has been mixed up with the demo? It's telling me "Full Version Only" when I brought the Patreon Version. Or is the patreon version not the "Full Version" anymore? Love the game btw, The art is amazing.
The Patreon version is also a demo version, but with special cheats available and a few extra sex scenes. The full version will be the release available on Steam in June.
Ohhh, sorry I got confused. Thank you for replying and clearing that up, I thought my game or the patch was bugged. Was there any new content added to this update? Or is it mainly the bug fixes and tweaks ?
Saving the game removes all learned talents. (They can be reaquired by saving and loading). It doesnt refresh instantly after you save, so it still looks like the talents are there, but they arent. It also resets rage when a save is performed.
And could you tell me how should I find the key in Cathedral? Three is a door needs the key to into it. Maybe I miss something, but I checked lot of times...sitll haven't find the key...😂😂😂
To get the key you will need to find and defeat Hrotsvitha. She can be found in the last area of the Cathedral archives (library), just beyond a door with no handle. The door must be burned by casting the Kenaz (fire) rune in front of it, OR by throwing the lantern offhand weapon at it (chance to get the lantern by defeating the Chariot boss).
Edit: the following can be ignored because the dev fixed them within a day :)
Very buggy following the most recent patch. Equipment items disappear from the inventory (briefly returning if you disassemble something), inventory sorting doesn’t work anymore, Map menu always displays over top of all cutscenes, detailed location map is missing, and none of the Options menus will display on the launch screen anymore :(
The game itself is good though, but this week’s patches have broken a lot
Is the content after removing the demons from the nun's body not yet complete? She had been lying in her room, motionless. I could not find my way to the pregnant angel's room now, and during Resuce Megda's mission I was blocked by a door that needed the key.
You can get to the other side by just mashing jump buttons in a certain way. I forgot how, but I did it, I didn't get the triple jump. <3 Not the right way to do it though ;)
I prefer to see it on steam, and also hope that players who have purchased the Patrion version can get it in steam, which will be more convenient.
In addition, we have to say that there are many problems in the game. For example, talent points will disappear and can only return after death; After defeating Spider Girl, the number of gold coins obtained has increased to thousands of times, and the game can only be restored after restarting; And the rune of underwater breathing cannot be found.
But so far, what really trapped me was that I could not find the missing nun; The road near the barn is impassable; as well as， map shows that there is a road leading to the monster nest near the rib city. In fact, I haven't found it. What really puzzles me about these things is that I don't know whether they are not created or I haven't found them. So far, I haven't made any progress in one afternoon.
The game is very interesting and has great potential, but it is very troublesome without introduction and detailed update information.
Thank you for letting me know about these issues. I am looking at each scenario and fixing them accordingly. I should have a patch uploaded later today or tomorrow for you.
This game WILL be on Steam, soon in fact! Those who purchased the Patreon version as well as my patrons themselves will be given keys or discounts (relative to the amount they have already paid) for the full version once it becomes available.
First of all, the water spirit can't give water runes. I don't know if it has changed. The rabbit lady's animation will be black when it turns into a rabbit. When the blacksmith synthesizes it, the blood map will block the item. The last line of the item bar can't be selected or dragged. For talents, if possible, I hope to indicate where I got this talent. I have forgotten where I got it several times. I found Feipu after looking for it for a long time, All of the above are translated by a translator. Because I can't understand English and so on, I can only say what it is. I can't understand the plot, and I can only see one sentence and translate one sentence. Anyway, your game is really good and I'm looking forward to the future plot👍👍 (what garbage translator?！🤬)
For berzerker attacks, hold up and hit the main weapon attack button (while you have 5 or more rage points). For ally attacks, hold up and hit the offhand attack button (when ally power is full).
A great game.The game went black after defeating the hidden clerk girl. There are several elevated platforms and corners of the ceiling where characters can easily get stuck.
Thank you for letting me know about the black screen, I will check it out. Regarding the platforms, if you remember which ones then please let me know.
The top of the L-shaped moving bookshelves in the underground library. Square stones on the road back to their village, and walls in caves with totemic pillars. Map boundary to the right of Troll Hill.

Kara's story is left on a cliffhanger at the end. You will see her again in the next game. The remaining content updates will start becoming available in the next month. I am adding more allies and adding sex scenes for the secret characters that don't currently have any. More weapons, runes, and skills too.
U cant release ur lust on ur allies ? Even when we captured them ? (like zheda)
Named allies like Zhedha, Kara and Ingrid can't be seduced in battle. They all have special events or places where it's possible. Only normal enemies can be seduced on the go.
Any plans to release full version on itch or will it be steam only?
i just bought the patreon version assuming thats the full game
or just the patreon version of the demo?
When it gets released on steam will there be achievements?

The game is good and I will buy it in steam,but can you join Chinese in language,even use AI to translae,it is really hard for me to understand the story,by the way,I want to know the final price in steam
How can i get this?I can`t find it in steam
This game owns! I'm getting it on steam day one. Thanks for making it!
It makes me happy that you enjoy my game that much! Thank you!
Excellent game that blends old-school gameplay with new mechanics, crisp graphics with beautiful locations, complex gameworld and a great story. Haven't played all of it yet but I would simply love to have one or several mother and son incest couples present caputured or hiding. Not much else to say for now except keep up this awesome work!
Thank you very much, I am so glad you enjoyed my work!
Be sure to wishlist the full version on Steam, the demo only reveals about 1/8th of the total content I have created.

Honestly, took a chance on the demo. Super fluid and fun. The writing and voice acting are also fantastic. Can't wait for the full steam release!
Thank you so much! The full release is coming very soon, I am pretty excited for you all to get the full experience.
Will there be a Linux version?
To be honest, it hasn't been requested before. I suppose I could give a Linux build a try. I'll take a shot at it in the next week or so.

I understand what you are saying.
游戏很好，我很喜欢，但是我总是卡住，就是看不懂剧情，希望能用中文发表
完整版出来后我会重播
Great game. Entertaining as fuck and has an incredible setting. I'm looking forward to the future of Korvald.
Thank you so much! The full release is coming VERY soon!
YOOoo i like where the game is going, however, i have one question. Can saves from previous versions be used?
Across demo versions, yes. When the completed game comes out on Steam, demo saves will not work in the full release and vice versa. (though I am not sure why someone would try to load a save from the full version into a demo version)
I think the Patreon version update has been mixed up with the demo? It's telling me "Full Version Only" when I brought the Patreon Version. Or is the patreon version not the "Full Version" anymore? Love the game btw, The art is amazing.
The Patreon version is also a demo version, but with special cheats available and a few extra sex scenes. The full version will be the release available on Steam in June.
Ohhh, sorry I got confused. Thank you for replying and clearing that up, I thought my game or the patch was bugged. Was there any new content added to this update? Or is it mainly the bug fixes and tweaks ?
It was just fixes and improvements. Any content I am adding at this point is strictly for the full release.
Saving the game removes all learned talents. (They can be reaquired by saving and loading). It doesnt refresh instantly after you save, so it still looks like the talents are there, but they arent.
It also resets rage when a save is performed.
Thank you for letting me know. I will get that patched as soon as I can.
he kinda looks like zeus tho
it's true. the ladies love it though so Korvald doesn't mind.
the real alpha male lol
I just got stuck after a BOSS but saw update 60 seconds ago
Yeah I jumped on that bug pretty quickly. lol.
I'm able to continue playing but there one problem : my items and skills kept going missing
I will take a look and see if I can figure out what may be happening.
keep up the good work 😁👍👍👍
when will we have an android version?
The new version is amazing.😬😁🤨👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
We could travel this time.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! I think I may have finally gotten the UI and other features tightened up pretty good. :D
And could you tell me how should I find the key in Cathedral? Three is a door needs the key to into it. Maybe I miss something, but I checked lot of times...sitll haven't find the key...😂😂😂
To get the key you will need to find and defeat Hrotsvitha. She can be found in the last area of the Cathedral archives (library), just beyond a door with no handle. The door must be burned by casting the Kenaz (fire) rune in front of it, OR by throwing the lantern offhand weapon at it (chance to get the lantern by defeating the Chariot boss).
Oh,i got it,Thanks.😃😆😄
Edit: the following can be ignored because the dev fixed them within a day :)
The game itself is good though, but this week’s patches have broken a lot
Ewww, my bad! I am fixing these now and will post a patch soon. No one ever accused me of being a competent developer. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
In my professional experience, the true mark of a “competent developer” is fixing and learning from mistakes :)
Should be fixed now.
How long could I play the full version in Book of Korvald: Patreon Versionsold on another interface?
The gallery's LUCKY RABBITS FOOT still has problems😢
Awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Is the content after removing the demons from the nun's body not yet complete? She had been lying in her room, motionless. I could not find my way to the pregnant angel's room now, and during Resuce Megda's mission I was blocked by a door that needed the key.
You have reached the current end of the demo. The conclusion of Haniel, Mother Superior and Saint Magda's stories will be in the full version.
Question : How can I jump over this cliff? 😬😬😬😬
You need to go to the cathedral to finish playing angels to get a triple jump
THX 👍🏻GOT IT.
You can get to the other side by just mashing jump buttons in a certain way. I forgot how, but I did it, I didn't get the triple jump. <3 Not the right way to do it though ;)
Got it.👌🏻👌🏻

I had the same problem. I couldn't find the underwater rune. Besides, do you know where the church's missing girl is? I can't find her
She is the blacksmith in Ribe. Just ask her about her hammer to progress the quest.
thanks
, the female demon could not accept this is a pity, is it related to the worldview? ...
Wow, you update so fast! 👍🏻👍🏻😉😉
Hi,Could you tell me what the version about the "patreon version " in another page is? 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉
As of this morning, it is 0.5.21
THX 😉😉😉
Another question: how should I release skills by keyboard? 😉😉😉 I forgot. 🤔🤔
For berzerker attacks, hold up and hit the main weapon attack button (while you have 5 or more rage points). For ally attacks, hold up and hit the offhand attack button (when ally power is full).
Got it. 😁

These should be fixed in the latest build.
Wow , such a awsome game 😉😉
Thank you so very much! :)
