We are very sorry about this oversight. On Steam you can roll back to the prior version via a beta branch. If you have a Slitherine version you would need to uninstall and reinstall the prior version to be able to continue.

We are going to ensure that this doesn't happen in the future.

Cheers

I just played a game after this update. I want 85 turns *and most of those turns I had over 150 gold) and the game didn't give me a starting hero. This seems like a serious glitch.
