Evaluation
HF: Probation is a free prologue/demo for the full game Heretic's Fork. It is no longer available for purchase or download on Steam — the store listing shows no active purchase options, meaning it has been removed from the storefront. This is consistent with the developer's own August 2023 communication (NEWS-6), where they encouraged players to use the separate demo version instead of the probation build, noting it was more up-to-date. The full game, Heretic's Fork, launched on September 13, 2023 and has continued to receive content updates through at least February 2024. This prologue app served its purpose as a pre-release sampler and has since been delisted.
Evidence
Developer explicitly asked players to use the demo instead of the probation build, stating development focus had shifted entirely to the main game and the demo was more current and balanced.
No purchase options are available for this app — it cannot be acquired on Steam.
