V47: A timely hotfix

Sternly Worded Adventures Demo · published 1 Sep 2025, 12:44 UTC

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

First a small string of fixes that went live immediately after v46, but weren't posted directly.

V46.1 hotfix

  • Fixed a rare crash to desktop on trying to start a new game if one or more rolled two board-size altering items.

V46.2 hotterfix

  • Fixed the V46.1 fix rendering the function that's supposed to filter starting items down to one board-size-altering inoperable.

V46.3 duckfix

  • Fixed inns crashing the game if they rolled an inkeeper wearing a duck hat; a 1 in 52 chance.

  • Fixed a crash with the variant of the beggar follow up event; implying you didn't or couldn't pay 10g; where you pass with gear/passives.


V47

The majority of this update is bug fixes with a few tweaks based on feedback.

  • Fixed 'Better than a master of one' not being awarded.

  • Added backdating for 'Better than a master of one'.

  • Fixed a typo in the gain hint for the small poison.

  • Fixed changing the keyboard layout while in combat causing the keyboard to open for combat, preventing you from closing it, putting the combat UI in an error state, and crashing if you had the means to trigger closing it again.

  • Fixed the quill items glowing as if active on 'turn 0'; during the start-of-combat effects turn phase.

  • The cursor now halves in size if the resolution is ~720p or smaller.

  • Fixed being able to trigger the adventurer intro events multiple times.

  • Area progress bars now have headings indicating their meaning.

  • Added well graphic layers to village parallaxes so that they can be used in the background of well water gathering instead of the old method which reportedly caused frame rate issues on some machines.

  • Tiles now move twice as fast while a timer is active.

  • The board shaker shuffle effect is now significantly faster while a timer is active.

  • Fixed corrupted forests not marking as complete.

  • It now saves after every word input with express mail.

  • Fixed submitting words with express mail not checking if you have any valid words left afterwards.

  • Fixed death state behaviour of the express mail when running out of tiles.

  • Fixed the tile-destroy particle effect particle cap not being high enough for refreshing away a 5x5 board.

  • Fixed the hair of the jack of all trades clipping head items.

  • Fixed the highwayman event being able to happen at out-road nodes.

  • Fixed a hard lock when having enough reward count reduction items to have the game try to offer you a negative amount of items.

V47.1 Jackfix

  • Fixed a crash with the backdating for 'Better than a master of one'. Affected only people who should have earned it.

  • Added overworld location screen data with verbose logging.
