Late last year, 6502 Workshop released their Ultima-inspired retro RPG Nox Archaist. And if you'd like to know how this very much old-school project came to be, learn a thing or two about its creators and their crowdfunded journey, and more, you can now pre-order "The Making of Nox Archaist" book.
The book is expected to ship around December 2021, and while you're waiting for it, you can also grab the official Nox Archaist hint book. Here's how:
We are excited to announce the Making of Nox Archaist book is now available for preorder, expected to ship early December 2021!

In the Making of Nox Archaist, co-founder and lead developer Mark Lemmert talks about how making the game began as a childhood dream and ended with the first commercial role-playing game released on the Apple II in 30 years.
Mark describes the challenges, including a failed Kickstarter, the Apple’s quirky graphics system, and getting decent audio out of a one-bit speaker. Along the way, the team received help from many sources, including Richard Garriott (Lord British), Dr. Cat, Burger Becky, and Steve Wozniak (Woz). Finally, after a wildly-successful Kickstarter and a year of non-stop coding, Mark details how an obscure floppy-disk bug nearly derailed the entire project just weeks before release.
We hope that you enjoy reading our story! Preorder HERE!
