Phew, it's finally up. Shadow of the Villains has launched.

First of all, we're very sorry for the extended downtime Sunday and Monday. Because our development server died yesterday (down for the count apparently), we lost more than two days worth of work. We had to feverishly redo a bunch of stuff that was already done, and the launch was delayed a bit.

Partially because of that, we also had to drop a couple of features we had been planning to include in this expansion. Not to fear though. We will be adding these in over the next couple of weeks. We'll give you a few more details on that stuff soon.

Some of the puzzles involving Shangri La and Villain hunts are quite hard, so don't be too discouraged if you have trouble with them at first. Please note: we don't want any spoiler info involving Shangri La, the Prince or Villain Hunts posted on the City Hall boards. Any such info will be deleted by the mods.

Thanks everybody, and enjoy the expansion.

I LOVE IT!!!!

But, I do have a request. Is there a way we can see how many cases we have left for the day when we are hunting villains?

Thanks!

is this only for suscribed users?

after speaking to the ambassador and being told i don't have enough experience, is this because i haven't enough days/points experience or because i chose not to join an agency?

While non-subscribers in theory could get an invite if they were experienced enough you need to be subscribed to be able to travel to Shangri-la and take advantage of the invite.

Once someone experienced enough then you can get the invite. It does not have anything to do without being in an agency.

It will help you to build up to the experience point by joining an agency if you are subsribed like det. regrets is.
