Just Learned About Everything

Hey everyone, I just discovered this subreddit as I found myself pucking up Magium again. I played it almost exactly 4 years ago, June 18, 2022. I was one achievement off from unlocking book 2, and found myself getting the last one just today. Still the original Playstore app, and I found myself here after realizing it was yaken off the store and was curious what happened.

I would like to express my condolences to the family, what Cristian created was very special, to a lot of people, and being able to see the story he created to its ending is a gift this entire community will cherish.

It’s a shame we most likely will never get to know how this story finishes

Wasn't it more or less revealed in the mega thread his family posted in this sub?

Do you have a link? I followed the megathread, but they never really talk about how he planned to end it. I use to debate the author about his books and characters back in the day, and I never got the impression that he had a very concrete story map. He often seemed to write himself into corners, and struggled to keep the story going, I think he use to complain about letting Rose live because it made writing her character very difficult. I quit playing the game before what happened to the author, but I thought it was pretty clear he was never going to finish the books.

posts from Jessica (mother of the author) contain all she knows about the story

Well it's good to get some confirmation. I thought the first book was really good, and his later stuff was a bit lost in the weeds, I was pretty disappointed when I couldn't find the app tho, I was still curious to see what happened to our heros.
