An update for those who aren't beta testing the latest version

This is one of our biggest releases to date.

Lots of game changes and enhancements to make the game more realistic, playable and extending.

We hope the update will be available in the next few days.
So far here’s what’s happening. Things can also change on a number of areas. Please also note that to take advantage of the cool stuff for leaderboards and Game Center you will need to have a device with iOS14 installed as these features now only work for the latest version of iOS. It’s also fair to say that to make the most of the new features in this update players are recommended (but not required) to make a new gameworld to take advantage.

Version 1.00.08

Leaderboards are back. We’ll be looking to take full advantage of the improved Game Center functionality of iOS14 over coming days and weeks. ** Leaderboards only work on devices with iOS14 installed. The leaderboards can be accessed via the Stable screen.
