Evaluation
This is the free Prologue/demo version of Siege Survival: Gloria Victis, which launched on August 19, 2020 as a standalone free-to-play taster for the full game (App ID 1167140). The developer used this Prologue as a testing ground and demo vehicle leading up to the full game's release on May 18, 2021.
After the full game launched, the developer shipped two post-launch content drops for the full game: the "Lost Caravan" new scenario on June 22, 2021, and Community Update #2 on July 12, 2021, which completed the Dynamic Events system for both scenarios. Both of these updates were primarily targeting the full paid game, though they referenced and built upon the Prologue's foundation.
The last developer communication of any kind across the Prologue's news feed is dated July 12, 2021. There are no developer posts after that date. Given that this is a free demo/prologue product whose purpose was to funnel players toward the full game — and the full game itself has been complete since at least July 2021 — the Prologue functions as a permanently available free sample with no ongoing development of its own. The developer has not announced any further content for the Prologue, and the sustained silence since July 12, 2021 is consistent with a product that has reached its final state. No unreleased DLC is listed, and there are no outstanding developer commitments specific to this Prologue app.
Evidence
Community Update #2 delivered Dynamic Events to both scenarios, new challenges, and New Game+ for the Lost Caravan scenario. This is the final developer post on record for this app.
New 'Lost Caravan' scenario launched for the full game, with Community Update #2 announced as the follow-up and final planned update.

About this game
THESE WALLS CAN’T FALL
Set in the medieval world of Gloria Victis, Siege Survival: Gloria Victis sees your country invaded and your city under brutal siege.
A small group of civilians are trapped in the only remaining stronghold and are the last source of hope for the defending troops hanging on for dear life. You might not be fighting the invaders yourself, but the fate of the city lies in your hands.
Support the last soldiers standing against overwhelming enemy forces and hold out until reinforcements arrive. Build your camp, manage resources, craft supplies during the day and scour the fallen city for resources and new civilian recruits at night.
SURVIVE THE SIEGE
Defending what’s left of your city are a few tired troops in dire need of arrows, weapons and armour; along with treatment for the wounded. You need to keep this last bastion of defenders supplied and supported in every way possible ahead of their battles every few days; otherwise, the enemy will eventually storm the keep. Not only that, but you also need to protect your civilians and your camp, as you are assaulted by waves of flaming arrows and giant boulders.MANAGE RESOURCES & CRAFT SUPPLIES
You need better weapons, a roof over your head, hot food and all the other trappings that just existing entail; and the only way you’ll get these is if you and your team craft them. But resources are limited and you'll need to sustain both soldiers and civilians, so find ways to preserve food, develop your infrastructure and use your supplies more efficiently.SCAVENGE THE FALLEN CITY
Venturing out from the safety of your keep, you have to explore the ransacked city at night to collect precious resources and help the surviving citizens – or exploit them. But be careful, enemy patrols keep watching the streets; you must be smart to remain unseen... and alive. Unlock routes to other districts, enlist new civilian recruits and make it back before dawn so as not to be caught.YOUR BACK AGAINST THE WALL
Help is coming, but it’s weeks away. And in a siege like this, one dilemma can quickly spiral into another and very soon you will face tough moral choices. The fate of your companions - and that of the city - is in your hands alone. There will be hunger, wounds, disease and despair, but also growing tensions between the civilians and defenders. Sustain your troops or keep your civilians alive? Only you can decide.TELL YOUR OWN STORY
