Would any of this have been possible without the Wise Leader at the helm of our Great State?
We all know the answer to that!

The Wise Leader is wise to announce the official opening of the new Ministry: The Ministry of Merchandise. The new Ministry is assigned to the recently established official store where every loyal citizen may get themselves the official symbols of the State!

The Ministerial collection will be receiving more images and items, however, right now every loyal citizen may go check the storefront and order themselves a wonderful piece of the official wise merch!

Visit the Ministry of Merchandise

The Wise Leader officially announces: Beholder 2 has been released on Steam!

Before you make the right choice and treat yourself with your personal Beholder 2 adventure, read the following instruction to get the best possible discount:

1. There is a release discount for all citizens, applicable for the first week since the release date.
   
2. If you purchased the original Beholder on Steam before, you will receive a coupon for a 20% discount, which can be combined with the release discount.
   
3. If you haven’t yet received the coupon, and literally can’t wait to play the game, you can take advantage of the bundle option: since you already own the original Beholder, you can buy Beholder 2 while using the Bundle discount that equals 20%.
   
4. If you don’t have any of these games, then how do you sleep at night?! Nevertheless, you can grab a bundle with a 20% discount (that is combined with a Beholder 2 release discount) right now! If you buy a bundle, you will still receive the 20% coupon, since you become a proud owner of the original Beholder game. Don’t get upset: the bundle discount is equal the coupon discount, so you have got the best offer available. As for the coupon, it can be a nice gift for a friend.

See you at the Ministry!
