Have you heard the news? This week* is the 12th anniversary of Draknek and Friends! 🎉

*technically it's tricky to pinpoint the exact date we were founded, but it's been 12 years since the first release of our first game, Sokobond[sokobond.com]. So this seems the most plausible time to celebrate our anniversary!

With the 5 year anniversary of A Monster's Expedition next month too, we have a bunch of exciting things happening this month and next. Check them out:

To kick things off, here on Steam we're running an official publisher sale for the next two weeks.

This sale includes all the games we've developed, published, and the new demo for our upcoming game, Spooky Express.

It also features some of our deepest discounts yet, so now is an excellent time to pick up a new game.
