Get clued in
Mod Dorn is no stranger to Clue Quality of Life and spent their Game Jam time working on a bunch of changes such as improving teleporting interfaces for dragon trinkets and Portmaster Kags, introducing a new scan area in the Lost Grove, asking the Gnome Coach and Captain Ninto to stop wandering around and reducing the delay when using Fairy Rings.
Check out the patch notes below for the full list!
