Evaluation
Lock's Quest is a remaster of the 2008 Nintendo DS game, released on Steam on May 30, 2017. The only DLC is a soundtrack pack that released alongside the game on May 30, 2017. Developer communication after launch consists of two feature patches, both posted on June 16, 2017, focusing on quality-of-life improvements to mouse controls, mini-game UI, and targeting systems. There have been no developer posts of any kind since June 16, 2017 — no new content announcements, no roadmaps, no expansions, and no further updates of any type. The store description describes a fully contained remaster experience with no mention of future content, seasonal updates, or planned additions. The game launched as a complete package and has received no meaningful content beyond that initial release window.
