 ## Game Updates
 
+### [Sulis][sulis] - a Turn-Based RPG
+
+![chest and inventory with items](/assets/newsletter-003/sulis-inventory.png)
+
+[Sulis][sulis] is a Role Playing Game (RPG) with turn based, tactical combat,
+deep character customization and an engaging storyline.
+The game has been built from the ground up with modding
+and custom content in mind.
+Currently supported on Windows and Linux platforms.
+
+The game is currently fully playable
+and includes the first act of The Twin Expanse,
+an old school RPG campaign in the vein of classic games
+such as _Baldur's Gate_,
+but mixing in modern elements from titles like
+_Divinity: Original Sin_ and _Pillars of Eternity_.
+
+The core game engine as well as the campaign
+are still under heavy development.
+Users are encouraged to [file issues with bugs][sulis-issues],
+feature requests, or any other feedback.

+  (although at a reduced frame rate).
