Version 1.3.0 / Save version 1.01
- The Lost Levels are live!
- As a massive thank you to everyone who has supported Letters & Legends, Bow & Arrow Games is proud to present the Lost Levels – 10 extra tough levels containing a host of new tricks and challenges!
- The Lost Levels will unlock during chapter 1 and can be played immediately from the chapter select menu, but new players might want to wait a while – every Lost Level brings a new trick to the table, and finishing all of them might require you to beef up your characters and unleash your most voracious vernacular!
- Thank you to everyone who has played and supported Letters & Legends, and good luck!
