The entire team at Yaza Games is diligently working towards its next major update for its strategy game Inkulinati. They’ve teased some exciting new features, though not all secrets have been revealed. A glimpse into the intricate world of marginalia is promised in the coming weeks.
A key highlight of the update is introducing a new character, the Ape Professor, joining the Inkulinati Master squad. Known for his wisdom and expertise, the Ape Professor is accompanied by the brave Ape Army, a group known for their courage and fondness for beverages. Detailed capabilities of the new Master and his allies remain a mystery, set to be unveiled in the forthcoming major update.
Alongside introducing new characters, the update will also include new Battlefields, offering a wider range of arenas for players to test their strategic skills. The number of these new Battlefields, however, remains undisclosed.
The team also plans to implement numerous enhancements to the game, largely based on players’ feedback. The improvements include better camera mechanics, journey experience, economic adjustments, enemies’ progression, and diversification in Battlefields. The team will also modify Danse Macabre based on user feedback. While other changes are on the horizon, the specifics will be released with the update.
In summary, Yaza Games anticipates the upcoming update to Inkulinati, promising exciting new features, characters, and improvements based on player feedback. The precise timeline for the update has not been shared, but the team assures that it’s not too far off.

INKULINATI IS INSPIRED BY REAL-LIFE MEDIEVAL MARGINALIA
700 years in the making, finally these bizarre art pieces can come alive in a video game and show that medieval people also had their “memes” and that they laughed from the same silly things that we do today. You’ll see sword-wielding rabbits, dogs with spears, trumpets lodged in bottoms, human-eating snails, and more. Much, much more…
A GAME IN WHICH CUTE RABBITS WILL KICK YOUR BEHIND
Don’t let the looks fool you. Sure, the rabbits are cute, the dogs look friendly, and the donkey with a trumpet in his bottom looks hilarious. However, as soon as you place your hand and quill on the Battlefield, the frivolity ends and the challenge begins. Inkulinati is a game of nuance and brain-sizzling challenge that will test even the most hardened strategists.For those that just want to experience the story and laugh out loud without too many repercussions, there is the Easy mode to play.
MULTIPLE DEADLY (AND BIZARRE) BEASTS TO UNLOCK
Donkeys playing trumpets with their bottoms, bishop cats vanquishing heretics with prayers, heavy but deadly snails that eat units alive, and more. Much, much more. They all have their special skills and are waiting for your command.
SPECIAL, BATTLE TIDE-TURNING ACTIONS PERFORMED BY THE INKULINATI
It’s not just your Beasts that can cause havoc and damage. Use your fists to smash your opponent’s units, draw obstacles to create barriers, relocate your units with a move of your finger, or explode your troops to create pure, pure chaos. Just remember – your opponent can do it too.
