Evaluation
EvilQuest launched on February 20, 2014 as a self-contained retro action RPG with a fixed set of content: 15 dungeon levels, 14 spells, 10 boss fights, and a complete story. The developer shipped one post-launch content patch on April 7, 2014, adding a bestiary, an expanded map, new enemy types, and a raised level cap. Steam Trading Cards were added on May 16, 2015. The last developer communication of any kind was a May 16, 2017 announcement that EvilQuest 2 was submitted to Steam Greenlight — this is a separate sequel project, not additional content for EvilQuest itself. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no roadmap for additional EvilQuest content, and no developer statements indicating further updates are planned for this game. The store description describes a complete, self-contained experience with no mention of ongoing content. EvilQuest is a finished product; the April 7, 2014 patch represents the last substantive content addition to the game.
Evidence
Spring 2014 patch added a bestiary, larger map, new enemy, tablet drops, and a raised level cap — the last substantive update to EvilQuest's content.
Trading Cards were added; developer noted they were shifting focus back to EvilQuest 2 development. No further EvilQuest content promised.
