"He followed me home, can I keep him?"
In the next update (probably coming September 1st), yes you can! You'll be able to permanently recruit residents and animals to live at your tower to go on heists with you or work around the tower.

Traditional Roguelikes (Turn Based) / BOSS 3.3.1 for Windows, macOS, and Linux released
« Last post by PlunderBunny on August 08, 2025, 04:25:43 AM »
Version 3.3.1 of BOSS is now available for Windows, Linux, and macOS from the BOSS home page: https://80.style/#/plunderbunny/boss/introduction.

This is a minor update. The only significant change is that the game now uses more colours (256 instead of 16).

Important notes:
- Save games from all previous versions are not compatible with version 3.3 - if you have a 3.0, 3.1, or 3.2 game in progress, you should finish it before installing version 3.3.1. The High-score file and settings file from older versions are compatible with the new version.
- Filters from previous versions are not compatible with version 3.3.x onwards. You can download updated pre-defined filters from the Boss home page.
- On macOS 15 (Sequoia), the administrator is now required to approve the execution of BOSS the first time it is run. Please refer to the instructions on the macOS BOSS download page.
- On Windows, the Windows Defender SmartScreen may prevent BOSS from executing the first time it is run. Please refer to the instructions on the Windows BOSS download page.

Great insights on world scaling – totally agree that too large a world can ruin the sense of community. Looking forward to the next part!

This is brilliant! Love the mix of lore, laughs, and hic light-heartedness. Tangaria just became my favorite tavern between dungeon runs.

Hello there!
Recently updated to 0.6g version! Comes with couple minor bugfixes and some other minor gameplay improvements.
Already working on the next, which is going to be a necessary re-balance of the Inventory.

As always, thank you big time to those who are downloading and playing this my little ZAng Variant ^^
