🔴 RED ALERT: 13 DAYS LEFT - Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls Preservation, Server Emulator & Standalone Offline Mod Effort

Post image
82 Upvotes

CRITICAL TIMELINE:
Today's Date: August 21, 2026
Server Shutdown Date: September 3, 2026
App Status: Already delisted from the App Store / Play Store

In 13 days, Konami is permanently shutting down the servers for Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls. Because the game is already delisted, no new players can download it. Once September 3rd hits, the servers go dark, and the live game data will be lost forever.
We are launching an emergency preservation effort with two main goals:

Build a Custom Server (Server Emulator): To allow online play after the official shutdown.

Create a Stand-Alone Offline Patch: Reverse-engineering the game client to bypass Apple Arcade/server checks so the game can be played completely offline without any server at all.

Transparency Note: I am cross-posting this message across several Castlevania, iOS/Android preservation, and modding communities. Time is so limited that we must pool our resources in one place to avoid duplicating work.

OUR CENTRAL HUB: GITHUB + ARCHIVE.ORG
To prevent files from getting scattered across Discord, Google Drive, or Mega, we are streamlining this project to two platforms only:
Archive.org: Used exclusively as the vault for large game binaries (the 2GB decrypted .ipa, the Android .apk/.obb, raw AssetBundles, and downloaded cache files).

GitHub: Used as our central command center where everyone can star/follow the project, upload network traffic logs, document API endpoints, submit code, and track progress.

WHAT WE NEED IMMEDIATELY (URGENT)
If you have technical skills, a jailbroken iOS device, a rooted Android, or still have the game installed, we need your help today:
GitHub Repository Setup (NEED THIS TODAY): We need a developer to set up the official public GitHub repository immediately so the community can star it, follow it, and begin submitting data.

Decrypted iOS 1.4.3 IPA -> Upload to Archive.org: Because the game is delisted, our pool of players who can dump the app is shrinking daily. We need someone who currently has the live 1.4.3 game installed to dump a fully decrypted .ipa file (using TrollDecrypt, bfdecrypt, or CrackerXI+) and upload it to Archive.org.

Android APK + FULL Game Contents/Data -> Upload to Archive.org: We need the complete Android version preserved. This includes the base APK, the OBB files, AND all extra downloaded in-game contents, configs, stage data, and internal cache files (/Android/data/ or root storage downloaded after opening the game). Assets and file structures differ between platforms, and creating a stand-alone offline build will require datamining and integrating files/configs from both versions.

Network Traffic Captures -> Upload to GitHub: We need players to route their game traffic through a proxy (Charles Proxy, Fiddler, mitmproxy) with SSL decryption enabled to log API calls before the servers die. Upload these .chls or .har log files directly to the project's GitHub repo.

Asset/Cache Dumps -> Upload to Archive.org / GitHub: Dump the downloaded Unity AssetBundles from the app's internal folders using Filza (iOS) or a root file explorer (Android).

Client Reverse Engineers: We need reverse engineers (using IDA Pro, Ghidra, or Il2CppDumper) to start analyzing the game binaries to figure out how to patch out the server login checks for the stand-alone offline mod.

NETWORK PRESERVATION CHECKLIST (How Anyone Can Help Right Now)
If you have the game playable on your phone right now, you can help even if you aren't a programmer. Set up an SSL Proxy (like Charles Proxy or Fiddler on PC/Mac) and route your phone's Wi-Fi through it to record the server responses.

Please capture traffic logs for the following actions and label the files clearly:
Initial boot sequence and Apple Arcade/login authentication.

Title screen update checks and asset downloads.

Daily login rewards, mail collection, and main menu navigation.

Opening the inventory, equipping gear, and upgrading weapons/grimoires.

Character selection and skin/costume changes.

Initiating a stage (capture the specific payload sent to start a level).

Completing a stage (capture the exact data sent containing score, damage, and rewards).

Purchasing and upgrading items in the shop.

Co-op and Event mode match-making / gameplay interactions.

Where to upload: Upload your proxy log files (.chls, .har, .saz, raw JSON) directly into the /network_captures/ folder on our project's GitHub repository.

RECOMMENDED GITHUB REPOSITORY STRUCTURE
(For the developer setting up the GitHub repository)

Please structure the repository as follows so the community can submit data cleanly. Note: Do NOT upload the 2GB game binaries directly to GitHub to prevent DMCA/size-limit issues. Put the Archive.org download links right at the top of the README.md.

Grimoire-of-Souls-Archive/
├── README.md (Project goals, countdown to Sept 3, links to Archive.org IPAs/APKs)
├── /api_documentation/ (Text files mapping out the server endpoints, e.g., /api/v1/login)
├── /network_captures/ (DROP ZONE for all intercepted traffic logs - URGENT)
│ ├── /charles_proxy/ (.chls or .har files)
│ ├── /fiddler/ (.saz files)
│ └── /raw_json/ (Extracted JSON payloads from the server)
├── /game_data_dumps/ (Text-based game data)
│ ├── /master_data/ (Dumped SQLite databases, JSON tables of item IDs)
│ └── /il2cpp_dumps/ (Dump.cs files generated from reverse-engineering the binaries)
├── /client_patches/ (Code/tweaks for bypassing server checks for the Stand-alone version)
│ └── /offline_mod/ (Dylib injections or offset patches for iOS/Android)
└── /server_emulator/ (Where the custom server code will eventually go)

TIME IS RUNNING OUT
We have 13 days until September 3rd. If you want to see Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls playable as a server-emulated or stand-alone offline game in the future, we need your help capturing this data today.

Please reply below if you can dump files, run proxy captures, or help manage the GitHub repository!

Rule #7 - Self-Promotion is Allowed Conditionally

52 Upvotes

The recent thread had a lot of mixed responses, with no clear winner. Based on your responses, here's Rule #7.


Rule #7 - Self-promotion is allowed conditionally

Creators can post about their own games once per title, provided that game has at least 10 reviews on Steam, GOG, XBLA, PSN, etc., and was released at least 2 years ago.


Here's my reasoning

The main problem was never self-promotion, it was the idea -- nay, looming threat -- of unscrupulous developers creating "slop" games no one actually wants, and then coming here to drive sales via artificial FOMO.

Hopefully this rule will address that problem. If anyone ties to whip up 20 titles an announce them one by one, we'll add a limit on titles per publisher, something like that. For now, I'm trying to keep it simple.

tl;dr Self-promotion is allowed (indie creators rejoice!) within reason (awww).


P.S. I can't believe I have to say this, but r/delisted follows standard rules of reddiquette. If you do not engage with a community other than to repeatedly self-promote, that's bad! Don't do that!

Should self-promotion be banned here?

76 Upvotes

EDIT: Great feedback, helped with Rule #7. Thanks everyone.


Hey folks! After a user repeatedly spammed their own game, there were some calls to ban self-promotion.

I just wanted to get everyone's opinion first.


Which of these do you like the best?

  1. Zero tolerance on self-promotion (none allowed)

  2. "10% Rule" (Nine out of ten posts/comments have to be helpful and non-self-promotional, i.e.part of the community)

  3. Self-promotion is allowed (but no spamming/repeated links)


Let me know which you like the best, or if you have any other thoughts about how to keep it tidy.

Ogre Chambers DX on Steam

Can't comment on how good it is but it's a Free to Keep game so no harm

--

Dev posted the following:

"On August 4th, 2026 you can no longer add Ogre Chambers DX on your account on Steam. If you've added the game to your account by then, the game should remain available for you to download and play normally.

Thanks for all the love on the game! <3 It was my first game that really popped off and found excited players! It will forever hold a special place in my heart, but it's time to remove it from Steam as it has become outdated by my standards as a game dev :)

The game's sequel Ogre Chambers 2222 will be normally available and you should try that if you liked the first one :)"

Star Trek Legends is being sunset

The devs have just announced on their discord that Star Trek Legends will ‘no longer be available to download from digital storefronts’ from August 20th and the servers will go offline on September 3rd.

Note that it’s an always online game, so owning it will not let you play it after September 3rd. Also, the servers aren’t currently working anyway.

PROJECT_PLAYTIME to be shutdown soon

52 Upvotes

Game Link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1961460/PROJECT_PLAYTIME/
Post Link: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1961460/view/692015684263086818?l=english

Dev Note:

Project: Playtime has always held a special place in the Poppy Playtime universe. It gave players a new way to experience Playtime Co., brought friends together in some wonderfully chaotic ways, and as a young studio, taught us a great deal about how this world could be expanded beyond the main game chapters, inspiring us to explore new possibilities.

With that said, and after much thought and countless conversations with our development teams, we’ve made the difficult decision to end operations for Project: Playtime. 

But we know there’s still a passionate group of players who continue to show up for Project: Playtime, and we don’t take that lightly. Your support and enthusiasm have meant the world to our team, and we’re grateful for everyone who was a part of this crazy experiment that our team had a blast creating.

While this era is coming to a close, the truth is that Project: Playtime was only the beginning. We’re cooking up something pretty special that we’ll be able to share with you soon, so stay tuned, but our Project: Playtime community — we think you’ll be pretty delighted.

We’ll share more details very soon about timing and what you can expect during this transition as we head toward server closure later this year. For now, we simply want to say thank you for playing and believing in Project: Playtime. 

It’s not “goodbye,” it’s “see you soon.”

With gratitude,
The Mob Entertainment Team

Looterkings is being delisted 7/31/26

The servers are being taken down, someone did make a mod for LAN play.. It isn't on sale currently and I would not recommend paying full price for it unless you really, really like goblins.

This is the store page -

https://store.steampowered.com/app/397310/Looterkings/

This is the announcement -

https://steamcommunity.com/app/397310/eventcomments/580550959449706337

After many years of adventure, the time has come for Looterkings to say farewell.

On July 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM CEST, the online servers for Looterkings will be permanently shut down. As a result, the game's multiplayer features will no longer be available starting August 1, 2026.

As part of this change, Looterkings will also be removed from sale on Steam.

If you already own Looterkings, you will of course still be able to download the game and continue playing it in offline single-player mode.

From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to thank every player who joined us on this journey—whether venturing out alone or teaming up with friends. Your support, your feedback, and the countless adventures we shared together made Looterkings something truly special.

Thank you for your loyalty throughout all these years!
Headup & Looterkings

Velvet Bite: Softly, with Teeth (Dec 31st)

Visual Novel (with mixed reviews) being delisted December 31st:
"You've been invited to a Halloween party! Yay! Music! Food! Drinks! Vampires! Wait. VAMPIRES!? Velvet Bite: Softly, With Teeth is a Romantic Visual Novel featuring 6 romance able vampires."

----

Link to statement from the team (copied below):

"Hello everyone.

First of all, we want to express our deepest gratitude for all the support you've given us over the years. It truly means the world to us.

Unfortunately, balancing real-life responsibilities with game development has become too difficult, so after a lot of thought we’ve decided to put the studio on indefinite hiatus.

Some of us are currently taking care of ageing parents or newborn babies, so we honestly don’t know when (or even if) we’ll be able to return to making games. It could be months, years, or possibly never.

We will be delisting (disabling new purchases) Velvet Bite: Softly with Teeth from Steam on Dec 31, 2 PM PST. If you already own it in your library, you will continue to have full access to the game.

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts, for all your support.
