Tactical Breach Wizards was one of my favourite games from last year—you can read my full thoughts in my Tactical Breach Wizards review—but in case you're unfamiliar, it's a turn-based tactical RPG with great writing, interesting worldbuilding, and a razor-sharp sense of humour. It also just happens to be a really solid tactics game on top of all that, which is nice, and is why we gave it our Best Tactics award last year... Read more.

Hello! We are 40% off in today's daily deal! The cheapest Wizards has ever been. The wizards are questioning if they can get any cheaper without losing the air of mystique to which they've become accustomed. If everyone on Earth buys the game now, we'll never have to find out. Just as importantly, we've made a little community mission pack for you to try! We've been playing the missions folks have been making and sharing on the Steam Workshop, so we made a pack of our favourites so far, and a handy button to grab them all in-game.Featuring a prison break, a Jen & Banks special, and a mission w

If you have a Steam Deck, or if you just play on gamepad, we'd love to have you try the update we're preparing for next week!

Behind the scenes, Valve have been on an impressive streak of overhauling and adding features to help developers lately - usually right after I personally have just finished wrestling with the old version. The latest (unless I just missed this before) is this: a special type of news post that makes it easier for us to funnel you face-first into voting for us in the Steam Awards... but only in one category, of our choice. This is an outrage. How dare they help us in one particular way but not others? Moreover, how dare they ask me to make any kind of decision? We just did that for 6.5 years, su
