 Uwe Rosenberg’s Le Havre: The Inland Port Now Available on Steam

Patchwork and Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small enter Steam Greenlight

 

BERLIN — Aug. 29, 2016 — DIGIDICED is thrilled to announce the release of Le Havre: The Inland Port on Steam for Windows, Mac, and Linux at only $6.99 for a limited time. A faithful adaptation of the board game, the Steam version of Le Havre: The Inland Port retains the gritty strategy, resource management, and harbor-building mechanics players loved in the physical release.

DIGIDICED’s conversions of two other Uwe Rosenberg games — Patchwork and Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small — are now listed on Steam Greenlight, with the goal of arriving on Valve’s popular online store in the near future.

In Patchwork, players go head-to-head against quilters all over the world by laying down tiles of different shapes and creating a patchwork of sorts. As a patch is placed, each player moves a little closer to the end of the time-tracking board. Being “first mover” has its advantages, but racing to the end could result in a very rough quilt!

Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small is a competitive 1v1 ranch-themed board game. Players start by sending three workers to a nearby village market to acquire resources/livestock. Each of the 16 locations in the market serves a unique purpose — raising livestock, producing resources, or allowing players to purchase structures. Whether competing against one another or the CPU, players must use their wits to strategically place buildings and acquire (and manage) both resources and livestock. Whoever has the most animals after eight rounds wins!

“Releasing Le Havre: The Inland Port on Steam is a big step for DIGIDICED,” says Felix Dreyfus, CEO of DIGIDICED. “We hope Windows, Mac, and Linux users enjoy our adaptation of Uwe Rosenberg’s harbor management masterpiece. We’ll be on the lookout for feedback as well: We want to make all of our desktop ports — including Patchwork and Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small — worthy of the Steam community.”

 

Pricing & Availability
Le Havre: The Inland Port is now available on Steam for only $6.99 — 30% off the $9.99 retail price. The sale ends on September 5th.

Build Structures, Manage Resources & Become the Richest Harbormaster in Uwe Rosenberg’s Le Havre: The Inland Port

Now on iOS & Android

 

BERLIN Nov. 10, 2015 Le Havre: The Inland Port — Uwe Rosenberg’s award-winning, two-player board game — is now available on iOS and Android. A faithful translation of the board game, the mobile version of Le Havre: The Inland Port retains all of the gritty strategy, resource management, and harbor-building mechanics players loved in the game’s original incarnation.

In Le Havre: The Inland Port, you and your opponent (a rival harbormaster) have 12 days to build the richest port in the French commune of Le Havre. Players must use their resources (Grain, Lumber, Fish, and Clay) strategically to build structures from a shared building pool to see who can earn the most Francs. Although each building in Le Havre: The Inland Port can be sold for Francs, strategically-minded players can activate a building’s special ability and earn more.

Resources are stored in a warehouse good for building — or for converting into Francs if you’re so inclined. Every move is a calculated risk; you only get to make one action per turn, and you never know what the opposition is planning. In fact, how you make money is completely up to you: Do you build expensive buildings that have big rewards? Do you stockpile resources and activate your building’s abilities for the ultimate payout? Or do you buy as many buildings as you can to prevent your opponents from taking the lead?

Le Havre: The Inland Port also includes a robust multiplayer mode. When you’ve beaten the AI, you can go online for a real challenge. With support for several simultaneous asynchronous games, Le Havre: The Inland Port stays true to the board game’s two-player competitive focus. Make a name for yourself and you may just end up at the top of the global, cross-platform leaderboards!

“We absolutely love board games. However, we don’t all have the time (or the room!) to get friends together for a game like we used to when we were kids,” says Felix Dreyfus, CEO, Digidiced. “When we were given the opportunity to bring one of Uwe Rosenberg’s award-winning titles to mobile devices, we jumped at the chance. We’re confident that board game fans will appreciate this deliberate, careful adaptation of Le Havre: The Inland Port.”
