Evaluation
Guardians of Holme launched into Steam Early Access on June 16, 2023, and officially released its version 1.0 on December 13, 2023. The 1.0 launch post added the third hero (Horus), new relics, skills, and cards, completing the content roadmap the developers had outlined during Early Access — which specifically promised a third character, new traps, relics, and game modes.
Since the 1.0 release on December 13, 2023, there has been only one post: a January 15, 2024 patch (V1.0.5) addressing balance tweaks and bug fixes. No further developer communications have appeared after January 15, 2024 — now over 17 months ago. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no roadmap announcements, no season passes, and no developer statements indicating future content is in development.
The Early Access period saw steady feature updates (new traps, relics, modes, difficulty levels, and a new character), all of which were delivered by the time the game reached 1.0. With no post-launch content cadence beyond a single maintenance patch, no outstanding commitments, and extended developer silence following the 1.0 release, the game appears to have shipped as a complete product at version 1.0.
Evidence
Version 1.0.0 released, adding the third hero Horus, new relics, skills, and 27 character-specific cards. The post thanks players for Early Access support and marks the official launch.
Early Access launch post confirms the third character Horus was in final preparation, along with new traps, relics, and game modes — all of which were delivered by the 1.0 release.

About this game
In the distant past, the Demon King who nearly destroyed the entire world was sealed away by the legendary hero, and the demons were driven to the edges of civilization. As time went on, people slowly forgot about the agony and suffering during that period. One day, the dormant demons suddenly reappeared and marched toward the prosperous Royal City where the protection circles resided.
In the face of an onslaught from demonic legions, the player takes the role of a skilled artisan from Holme to lead the heroic citizens of the kingdom in defending their homeland. The player must combine their wits with a variety of traps to hold the kingdom's last line of defense.
