A happy relationship exists between the Polaris and the Gaami - the Gaami rule and the Polaris enact their will to freeze over the Square. But, of course, there's bound to be some of those who aren't always the happiest with this arrangement, such as this Polaran dissident trying to flee...

It's not uncommon to see Yădakk merchant caravans roaming the Khalee Plains looking for customers. It's also not uncommon for most caravans to be comprised of the same family of Yădakk. What is uncommon is finding a lone Kickoo warrior out here, pretty far from home.

Hello Polytopians,

It's the Yădakk Tribe Moon, a whole month dedicated to celebrating the Yădakk, our favorite wandering merchants!

We've also got a nice 30% discount happening at our webshop for the next 10 days! Come check it out!

Now, tell us what you think about the Yădakk in the comments!

Hello Polytopians!

It's Concordance Day, once again! The time we like to dedicate to talking about the Ancient Polytopians, their tyrannical ways, and their downfall which lead to the tribes we have today.

Normally every year around this time, we usually have an art contest where we hand you a blurb about the Ancients and you make some art around it. Well, this year, we've decided to give you all the gift of our own art!

The war was long, the battles were brutal, and the Ancients were slowly losing their grasp on the land. This coalition of upstart tribes had won, and there was no doubt about that. Some say the Ancients weren't actually wiped out that day at the Plains of Razul, but went into hiding to plot their revenge...



There you go!

Happy Concordance Day!
