A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

- Fixed Achievement: Not even close - Fixed Achievement: Spellslinger - Crossbow training overrides Earthquake strike - Ranger-Danger attacks gem cannon, it survives, thus Ranger gets additional attack. Wizzy finishes said cannon (for the defeat buff), and now Ranger is still lit but unable to attack since cannon is gone. - The precise shot talent doesn't seem to trigger - Hysteria spell makes the attack-range disappear after use for enemies technically correct, as they can't attack then, but they will after you press end turn
Vampiric Sorcerers will no longer attack if stunned. Acquire Target will no longer hit friendly units
Minor patch rectifying the white background in zone 5
Provisional Xbox controller support Fixed occasional crash on end turn
Minor UI and stability improvements
Hi everyone, Many of you asked us to add more challenge to Defend the Rook, so we've been working on the Experienced Mode - available now! When you next start a run you will be asked to turn on this mode. It will change all the battles difficulty and adjust the shops and drop rates of abilities to provide more challenge for experienced players. You can turn this mode on or off at your choosing in the Ascension menu. We hope you will enjoy this new feature and can't wait for your feedback! Have fun! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1531250/Defend_the_Rook/
