The developer of Fairytale Fables has released a new update for the game on April 8, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam. 

New patch (0.1.37) is out with a lot of balance changes! 🙂
Patch Goals:
