Five days, five updates.

Every day since launch, we've released a patch for Whiskerwood to address player feedback!

Balance changes, bug fixes, tax reform, and so much more.

Here's are some of our personal favorite updates from the last few patches! 🐭💛

In Whiskerwood, and in life, you must do whatever it takes to appease your cat overlords.

Here's mine. Show me yours!

🍂 It’s officially Autumn, and if you’re not rewatching Twilight while playing Against the Storm, you’re seriously missing out.

The Steam Autumn Sale is live, and Against the Storm and its DLCs are now discounted:

People who just drop a 🤣 on everything makes me lose trust in them. That's like a third-level react. I don't believe you think everything is that funny. You blow right past 😆 and 😂 and straight to 🤣? EVERY time? You are rolling on the floor crying laughing? I don't buy it. Don't patronize me,

My first piece for Restart - Silent Hill f may just be an instant horror classic. This does not feel like a series that has been on hiatus for more than a decade. You could have fooled me into believing they'd never missed a beat:

Silent Hill f Review: A Rousing Revival | Restart
While Silent Hill f may be more action horror than survival horror, it's still a wonderfully unsettling experience in all the best ways.

Whiskerwood is one of those projects that I've been waiting to share more about.

Proletariat mice contending with cat overlords? Complex building mechanics and city building?

You should definitely check this out.
Here is the first ever dev diary for Whiskerwood! 🐭

Join our lead programmer Daniel for an initial look at the world of Whiskerwood, our development roadmap, and why this is the game we chose to create.

Hey, yesterday was my first anniversary of working here at Hooded Horse. I'd say it's been one year with several years of experience.

I love my team and respect the hell out of them.

Manor Lords has sold over 3 million copies!

Fields plowed, taxes collected, bandits driven back — the medieval dream realized at a scale few could have imagined. Congratulations to Slavic Magic, and a massive thank you to every player who made this world theirs.

Congratulations to everyone at Evil Gingerbread Studio. From making a mod for Total War to releasing your own game. That's an awesome feat!

I've lost countless hours with SFO: Grimhammer and to now see them release their own game.

They deserve this and so much!
We've gone from making SFO: Grimhammer for Total War: Warhammer to releasing our first game tomorrow.

We're incredibly honored that we've reached 25,000 wishlists.

Thank you to everyone who've helped us get here!

In less than two days, we'll release our first game.

Two days.

That’s all that stands between us and the moment when Whispers of the Eyeless slips free into the world.

Hello everyone!

We’re Evil Gingerbread Studio, a small Polish team led by Venris, creator of the SFO: Grimhammer mod for Total War: Warhammer. We’re working on Whispers of the Eyeless, a game inspired by Polish folklore, packed with dark myths, eerie creatures, and haunting tales.
