Reconstruction of dwarfcampaign.com

This is the reconstructed version of the official website developed by as a nonprofit project of Sound Mind Games (Hyvän mielen pelit ry). The website offers the access to the latest versions of the three chapters of the Dwarf Campaign.

The reconstruction of the Dwarf Campaign website started on 26 October 2015. The new version of the website was published in November 2016. The website was designed and implemented by Jukka Jokelainen under the supervision of Sound Mind Games.

Voice Acted Version

In 2017, Sound Mind Games started a project to acquire voice actors for the whole campaign. The first chapter, which was already voice acted, was enhanced with noise reduction, and voice actors were acquired for Chapters 2 and 3. The project was finished in April 2019, and a fully voice acted version of the campaign was released with several improvements and support for patches 1.29 and 1.30.
