What's New in Tessera

1.2.1

October 27, 2026

Cities & Knights: bots now keep their knights ready for the barbarians, and the bank tab shows where each 2:1 rate comes from. The build clock no longer drops to 10 seconds after a barbarian attack or a forced pick; it pauses and resumes with the time you had left. Roll, discard, and robber timers are a little longer, and the Alchemist gets time to set the dice.
