Aurory's Citrine Update for Seekers of Tokane
Aurory's Citrine introduces a rogue-lite component, challenging players to navigate the Everlasting Chained Lands. This core feature rewards players for venturing into increasingly difficult territories, with the new Neftie Squads system adding a layer of tactical depth. Players are now restricted to three Nefties, necessitating more strategic planning.
Jonathan Campeau, Executive Producer at Aurory, shared his excitement about the update: “Citrine is definitely the most ambitious update we’ve ever done. What the team managed to include in this patch is insane. There are so many new features that it’s a completely new gaming experience. I can’t wait to hear the community stories, and see their reactions as they get to experience it all for the first time.”
Since its launch in November 2023, Seekers of Tokane has grown a dedicated player base, boasting over 100,000 unique players. The game initially captivated audiences with its full Blitz Battle mode and has continuously evolved through regular updates and community events. Aurory's commitment to enhancing the gaming experience remains evident with the Citrine update and the planned Diamond and Emerald updates.

Paul Vadillo, Co-Founder of Aurory, emphasized the studio's dedication to innovation: "The integration of these new features represents a significant stride towards our vision of delivering a premier web3 gaming experience. We take pride in our steadfast dedication to innovation and delivery, setting a precedent within the web3 gaming landscape."
In another recent development, Aurory made the strategic decision to shut down turn-based battler Aurory Tactics and shift its focus entirely to the RPG title Seekers of Tokane. The decision came after a year of intense development and the realization that ongoing issues, such as cheating and fixed matchmaking, have negatively impacted the gaming experience for many players.
