Put on your flatcap, pin a clover to your lapel and dive in!
We've replaced gnomes with leprechauns, food is now based on delicious Irish fare, and potions are now carried around in frosty mugs instead of flasks... and there's more to discover!
As always, the mod does not effect gameplay, permitting you to continue to earn achievements.


Barony is on a 20% Discount to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Now's a great time to gather your drinking buddies and have a new adventure in Barony!

Fun Fact: Did you know that "counties" are called "baronies" in Ireland?
Until next time, adventurers! Cheers!

Here at Turning Wheel LLC we're having a fun time celebrating the seasons with FREE Steam Workshop mods for Barony. Today you can celebrate both the Lunar New Year and Valentine's Day at the same time with new Barony mods. Just Subscribe in the Steam Workshop, and activate them via the Workshop menu inside the game! From there you can join up with others who are running the mods and it won't effect your achievements.


The team's newest content contributor makes his debut with the Happy Barony Valentine's mod.
The Foocubi foes (that's Succubus and Incubus) in the game have gotten all dressed up for a romantic date (note this does not change the look of playable incubus and succubus as these stylish duds weren't made to fit with your armor).
Instead of imps following them around hell, it looks like fireball slinging cherubs are here to spread the flames of passion. Festive food, decor and other fun modifications await you. Inspired by the spirit of romance yet? Grab your partner and share a candle-lit adventure through the deadly dungeons together!

This smaller mod replaces Barony's goat folk with ox folk. The iconic white oxen are seen both as playable characters and enemies, their mighty moos echoing throughout the lower dungeons. Bully skeletons and udderly obliterate rats as a bovine hero!

It's the perfect time to buy for yourself, or as a gift for your beloved.

You have just a couple more days to show off your talent and be part of our Barony Holiday Creations contest. Join the Barony Community Discord now and check out the current submissions (everything from drawings, to music videos, even fan-fic!), and submit your own! IT'S FUN and you might win a prize!
Check out what Discord user The Captain put together for the contest:


Did you know there's like less than 70 animated avatar frames on all of Steam? Now you can flex your Barony pride by snagging the holiday-themed Barony avatar frame from the Steam Points shop. That is, if you got 2000 Steam Points layin' around!



Check out who you know that has Barony on their wishlist and blow their mind with the best Christmas gift on the planet. Get Barony for 50% off for yourself, and/or gift it to all of your friends, acquaintances and strangers who friended you!

Did you know that Steam doesn't let developers make 4 Packs anymore? Right now you can get a discounted Barony 4 Pack for less than the price of two copies of the game. (Get the Barony 4 Pack on the store page, right here)

Or maybe somebody you know owns the game but not the DLC.
Barony DLC literally never goes on sale so like, a trusted friend told us that it's finally time to just make peace with that and grab that sweet, sweet DLC you've had your eye on! Go dungeoneering as a Goatman or Automaton or whatever it is you're into, the DLC is awesome. The Mechanist class from Legends & Pariahs is basically making toys so, you know. It's Christmassy.


Now is a great time to throw on the Merry Barony Christmas mod and take part in some dungeon celebrations in Santa's Steam Workshop. Happy Holidays from Turning Wheel LLC!

Starting today, submit your festive holiday-themed Barony work. Our favorite will win a Barony Switch case, made from leather, and personalized with text you get to pick! We'll also be offering some prizes to other submissions that really impress us.

We've updated the Merry Barony Christmas mod we introduced in 2019, now with more candy canes, festive foes, and more thoroughly decked halls!

Merry Barony Christmas provides you with the vanilla Barony gameplay experience that won't invalidate your achievements. And of course, you can play with others who are also using the mod. Enjoy a holiday gathering within the dungeons!

This cosmetic modification is entirely optional, and you can find it here:

We're so thankful to dungeon-delvers like you choosing to spend your holidays with Barony!
We've been working on Barony after its release for over five years now. We'd be honored if you selected us for the Labor of Love award. Thank you!

It's the last day of the Barony Kickstarter. There is a ton of value there, both as Steam users and for Barony fans who want to make a mark on the dungeons! We are very very close to funding and your pledge could make all the difference!

We recently added the Dungeon Veteran tier with our Steam users specifically in mind.

This new backer reward tier assumes you already own Barony, and entitles you to a key for the upcoming 3rd DLC that will be funded by this campaign. Further it grants you access to exclusive development channels and private Betas. If you want to add on a Switch copy of the game, you can do that too by selecting this tier and adjusting your pledge.
Don't own Barony yet, or want to give the gift that keeps on giving? A pledge at the Master Key tier grants you a key to Barony, all its DLC, plus the next DLC when it comes out!

The 5 week campaign has gone on for a while and we expect not all of you have been following it closely. Take a moment to peruse all the great things that are going to happen when this Kickstarter succeeds:

• NEW DLC adding alternate paths, new monsters, spells, items, plus new playable races and classes
  
• UI design overhaul that improves flow and tech-rework to add split-screen play
  
• New UI art direction featuring all new carefully crafted pixel art
  
• Superior gamepad support to make Barony great to control on any platform
  
• The port of Barony to consoles for the first time on the Nintendo Switch
  
• Crossplay for the Switch, allowing online / cross-platform co-op on the console with Steam users
  
• Coop Ghosts & in-world callouts, improving teamwork with easy communication
  
• Dungeon Seeds! Pick your dungeon to re-play or compete!
  
• The Compendium, an arcane source of knowledge and lore that fills as you play!
  
• ~150 backer adventurer names added to the random names list
  
• 55+ unique statues honoring great backer heroes, added to the game, each with its own message
  
• 25+ backer-designed items & spells added to the game
  
• 10+ backer-designed champion NPCs added to the dungeons as minibosses or allies

Ever dreamed up your own spell or magic weapon ideas? Maybe an achievement that highlights a skill you're particularly good at? Or maybe you want your finest hero to be memorialized in-game forever? We have Backer Rewards that can let you do all of those things!

There are also 6 developer videos that deepdive behind-the-scenes into Barony development topics on the Barony Kickstarter page. They're great viewing for any Barony fan!
Before it's over!

BONUS GOALS come to the Barony Kickstarter, making Barony a better game for all platforms once funded, and that includes Steam! All five bonus goals have been revealed:



The last bonus goal has been revealed, making Barony bigger and better!
The DLC will feature a brand new tileset, giving you an alternate path. It will feature new playable races which are friendly to humans as well as new monsters, spells and items within the new unique area! You can bet we're going to have some new lore to go with it. Furthermore all the items and spells added by our Game Master+ tier backers will be in the game at that time.
Learn more in our latest update.

A new backer tier has been added especially for home-desktop users who aren't interested in playing on a console, but want to support the DLC and Barony's development efforts. The new Dungeon Veteran tier includes just the DLC, plus exclusive access to development channels and closed beta test builds! In addition you'll get to add a name to the Random Name list!

• Bonus Goal #1: Crossplay for the Switch, allows online / cross-platform co-op with desktop players!
  
• Bonus Goal #2: Coop Ghosts & in-world callouts, improving teamwork
  
• Bonus Goal #3: Dungeon Seeds! Pick your dungeon to re-play or compete!
  
• Bonus Goal #4: The Compendium, an arcane source of knowledge and lore!

We have tons of other great rewards too for backers. Even if you're a die-hard PC player you've got a lot to look forward to by being a part of this campaign. This includes being able to design your own spell or legendary magic item!

Turning Wheel LLC is excited to announce that Barony is now available on the Epic Games Store (EGS). We want players to enjoy Barony on whatever platform they prefer, and we have integrated Crossplay into Barony, allowing Steam and EGS users to play together!

To celebrate this release, Barony is having a FREE WEEKEND on Steam starting today. The game will be available on sale for 50% off during this time.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/371970/Barony/
This accompanies the Barony giveaway week that EGS is hosting. Hopefully you'll find lots of new people to play with.
If you want some help arranging a game, please join our Discord community.

All new players will be greeted with the Hall of Trials update, hot off the production line. This should make it a lot easier for everybody to get used to the game mechanics and dive straight into fun dungeon runs.


We've simultaneously launched our Kickstarter for the Nintendo Switch version of Barony. This Kickstarter will add great features for Barony on ALL platforms, and we could really use your support! Check out the Kickstarter, pledge, and tell your friends!

Check out our press release on Gamasutra.

Want more information about what went into the Crossplay and Hall of Trials update? Read Wall of Justice's post on our devblog.

Explore the Hall of Trials which houses 10 challenges to teach and test your knowledge of Barony.
Even players who have beaten the game tell us that the Trials have taught them a thing or two.
And... Weird, some even say they've found -- like a bunch of secrets?? I feel like I would've remembered something like that.


All level design for the Hall of Trials was done using Barony's included map editor and the scripting tools within with no knowledge of coding required. Trust me, I'm not a programmer and I found these levels to be a lot of fun to make.



That means ALL of the things you see happen in these Trials is achievable by intrepid modders JUST LIKE YOU! Join us on the Steam Discussion boards or our official Discord channel and enjoy discussion and technical Q&A about level-building.

I hope these Trials inspire some of you to make your very own unique dungeon adventures, and upload them to the Barony Steam Workshop!

We've taken this map-updating opportunity to make adjustments to some of the level generation in Barony. In general you should be running into fewer inaccessible areas, fewer cheesable puzzles in many tilesets, and overall a slightly less claustrophobic experience in the Citadel specifically. We hope this makes the game a little more fun for everyone.



This update is shipping the same day our Kickstarter goes LIVE! So it's a great time to get introduced to Barony and share it with your friends! Don't forget to follow us on Kickstarter so you don't miss the campaign!
