Achieving the 7th position in global sales on Steam is a significant achievement and a crucial step forward in our debut in the strategy genre with a new brand. Partnering with 11 bit studios on a joint bundle featuring This War of Mine is a great honor, and we sincerely appreciate it as the entire team at Ashborne Games. Personally, This War of Mine served as the primary inspiration for the marketing campaign of Last Train Home, so I feel like the circle is now complete. Both titles complement each other in gameplay and their broader impact beyond the video game medium.
