Community24 Aug 2026Spirefall on Steam Deck - Native, Full Controller SupportSpirefall runs natively on Steam Deck The Spirefall demo ships a native Linux/SteamOS build — no Proton, no compatibility layer. Steam picks it automatically on Deck and on desktop Linux, and it runs in the Steam Linux Runtime, so there is nothing to configure: install and play. Here's exactly what that means, and what we tested. Full controller support Every screen in the game — menus, the tav…
Win a run and the tavern shows you what it was always sitting inside of: a map. The world beyond the Ale Haus is on the table now — and while you're out there reading it, we rebuilt the tutorial's pacing from the ground up and gave Tully a mute button. (He took it well.) The Journey Map · After your first run win, the tavern menu becomes a painted map of the world's taverns. Tully's Ale Haus is…

Patch number five, and the biggest one yet. Two days of your reports went into it and we've been fending off Cecilda's Assassins ever since, so the headline is simple: the tavern stopped starving you. Decks recycle, fortresses buy cards, every starter deck draws — and the game finally speaks up (with subtitles) exactly when it should, and shuts up when it shouldn't. Deck-out is dead (in the Tav…
Tutorial voice & pacing · One voice, one role. While Tully is coaching, nothing else speaks with his voice — the few announcer calls that play during the tutorial come from a different announcer until coaching ends. · Advancing a tutorial step now waits a beat before the voice line starts. Clicking through quickly no longer piles lines on top of each other — only the step you land on speaks. ·…
The demo prompts on first install if the player wants to automatically send gameplay telemetry and crash reports. Opting in can also happen on the All Settings menu. For those that do choose to send anonymous data, it does help us address gameplay/client stability issues within moments of getting the reports and it is much appreciated, but privacy is also important. Privacy · A one-time prompt…
What the demo is This demo is the opening encounter of Spirefall — one tavern and its full Gauntlet. And this is the first patch! The demo comprises 3 of the 6 factions developed for the game, and the full game continues past this first tavern. If you beat the Tavern Keep, you'll gain some clues as to where the story of Spirefall is headed. Combat feedback · When damage is reduced or prevented,…
