- 1.1 Update
- Hello Rulers!
- We are thrilled to finally release this important update for Lakeburg Legacies! With Patch 1.1, customize your villagers, change their names, upgrade your regular save to the next duration up until Endless Mode, look into the Castle expansion and so much more!
- Read all the details below:
- Villager customization
- Multiple saves
- Castle expansion
- New relationships
- Dating UX improvements
- Death feedback
- New events
- Congenital traits
- Bug fixes
- QoL
- Balancing
- Villager customization
- Certainly one of the most anticipated features: villager customization is now available!
- You can now edit your villagers' portraits: hair, eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, beard, outfit, hair colour, eye colour and skin colour.
- A brand-new renaming option will let you rename them into whatever you like (or pick one of the newly-added names and first names).
- Additionally, there are now a few more options to pick from when selecting a hair or eye colour for your villager!
- Multiple saves
- It is now possible to have up to 5 different saves at the same time. This will make it easier to try different game styles and durations and find out which suits you best!
- Castle expansion
- The Castle has been entirely revamped, and now has two new buildings.
- The Treasury is the new place where you can manage your village’s taxes
- The Chancellery is where you can manage your villagers’ satisfaction, depending on their class
- New relationships
- Villagers will now automatically share a relationship with their family and mentor or student.
- Memorable relationships will help you keep track of who used to be part of your villager's life before their relationship faded. Indeed, relationships now evolve if the situation between two villagers changes. For example, a worker can keep a friendly relationship with a former student, if their mentoring relationship was good enough.
- To better understand the reason why the relationship between two villagers is evolving in one way or another, their Affinity level is now directly displayed on their portrait in the Relationships tab of the character sheet.
- Dating UX improvements
- We’ve heard your complaints about the dating system, and have tried to make it smoother to use. Now, when you select a suitor, you can either go on dates as you usually do or spend Hearts to have Tindra marry you immediately.
- Furthermore, we’ve made the “Ask Tindra†area clearer: it now explicitly displays whether a topic is liked or disliked by the suitor. When you click the “Ask Tindra†button, only topics pertaining to the current date will be revealed.
- Death feedback
- When a villager dies, they now keep their work clothes, and their tooltip displays their last job. This should make it easier to identify what building now lacks a worker.
- New death events will also provide information about the main cause of death when a villager dies. You will now know what can be improved so this tragedy doesn’t repeat itself!
- New events
- You can now encounter 20 new events during your playthrough, in addition to the death ones!
- Some of them affect the new satisfaction system, while others allow young villagers to explore new work aspirations.
- Congenital traits
- This improvement should satisfy those of you who are interested in the genetics part of the game!
- Congenital traits (that are passed from parents to children) are now upgradable. If two parents share a similar congenital trait, then their children have a chance of inheriting said trait from both parents, upgrading it to the next level. Of course, this will work with positive traits, but also with negative ones!

- QoL
- We heard your sadness when having to abandon your village and legacies after your playing time has elapsed. When you reach the finish line of your current game, you will now be prompted to keep playing to the next game duration available. No more games abruptly stopped by the timer!
- This way you get:
- 30 years → 75 years
- 75 years → 100 years
- 100 years → Endless Mode
- The Options menu now displays the last time the current game was saved. A game is automatically saved at the beginning of every (in-game) year.
- It is now possible to skip animations by clicking.
- When entering a new building from the village map, the default view is now always the Workers one.
- The game will now automatically pause after a death event, to give time to figure out what building is now missing a worker and adjust villagers placement if necessary.

- Added a new level to the Efficiency upgrade, and updated its price.
- Adjusted the amount of resources offered in the Barter pop-up according to the new balancing.
