I’m still unable to purchase the game on 3 Oct 19 as of 0700 on steam. I live in Tokyo, Japan. Anyone have any solutions? I’m headed to work and will try again when I get home.

Matrix/Slitherine are based in the UK, it’s only just ticked over into the 4th, game will unlock around 3pm UK time I believe.

Ah. I had assumed that steam worked like my apple tv (itunes) and released based off the region timezone. I’ll check tonight when I get home, as that should be the 3rd in England and available for purchase by then.

Nope, for Steam we need to manually need to flick the switches. So it usually happens in the afternoon for us.

Cheers,

Ah. I just checked it here (3 Oct 19 / 1700), but still not working on steam. I’m not sure if its afternoon for you yet there. If I buy on slitherine store, can I transfer it to Steam when its released later?

it's 9am here, so won't be released until the late afternoon, that's maybe 6+ hours away.

buy on steam or GOG etc it just works on steam or GOG, buy on the site you get a site key and a steam key.

I will buy it here and redeem on Steam ... Will it be unlocked here at the same time?

normally there's not alot of time difference from steam to site release time unless there's an issue, which happens from time to time with steam or site for that matter
