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.

2024-08-21 15:55 UTC · Community Announcements · stephen.frost

43 years later, one of the most influential RPGs ever has full remake
2024-05-24 13:48 UTC · PCGamesN · editor@pcgamesn.com
What are the most influential games of all time? Doom. XCOM. Half-Life. Civilization. Baldur's Gate. The list goes on, but without some of these legendary masterworks, the entire world of gaming today would look very different. Originally released all the way back in 1981, one legendary RPG created the template for almost everything that followed, including Final Fantasy, Mass Effect, and Darkest Dungeon. Now, it's been completely remade from top to bottom, and you can play the entire thing today. Read the rest of the story... RELATED LINKS: Father of all party-based RPGs gets a remake, early

2024-03-20 22:41 UTC · Community Announcements · Dant.Rambo
Friends and adventurers, we sincerely hope you find this massive March of the Mad Overlord update to have been worth the wait.

A work-in-progress version of Japanese localized text was erroneously enabled in Update 0.3. We are still working on this feature and it is not yet ready to be played. We have disabled it in this patch. Our apologies for the inconvenience.
Update notes for Early Access Version 0.3 | Blessings of Cant
2023-12-13 19:21 UTC · Community Announcements · Dant.Rambo
Well met, adventurers — it's time for another update to our reimagined version of Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord. This time we've tried to focus on player feedback as much as possible, and we're expanding some of the core systems of the game to make the experience more forgiving — but only if you want it to be! Let's dive into what's new. Expanded Inn & Temple Functions Two key buildings in town have been enhanced. All the features of camp can now be accessed in town at the Inn, and you can now rest your whole party with one button press. At the Temple of Cant, you'll find resur

We have received the following scroll, with a message scrawled in what we hope is merely maroon ink: Woe to you adventurers who dare trespass upon my labyrinth! I, Werdna, devised my dungeon to punish any mortals foolish enough to challenge my supreme will. Let this be your final warning: Seek not your riches or Trebor's amulet -- I will keep what I've earned and take your life as many times as necessary to fulfill my destiny!

Fixed an issue where starting equipment was not being given to new characters upon character creation.
Hotfix 0.2.1
2023-11-01 20:19 UTC · Community Announcements · stephen.frost
New Identification System now automatically rolls to identify enemies as the original game did instead of requiring the player to use the Inspect Enemy action to do so. This makes the system more opt-in and the new system now provides an extra add to the original game instead of wholly replacing the original system. An issue with button focus being lost when opening the spell tabs on the character sheet has been fixed. This issue was most obvious with characters who had spells on both the Divine and Arcane spell tabs. It was primarily affecting players playing with a controller. Fixed missing

WERDNA had a breakthrough warding himself against the madness of the amulet. He can now more easily differentiate between the loyal undead and pesky adventurers when unleashing the power of TILTOWAIT.

Fixed uncommon issue in combat that was causing the game to soft lock Fixed bug with HP generation at level up that was artificially keeping character’s hit points lower than they should have been Highlight on enemies for selection can now be seen even when the enemy is unidentified Changed MADI effect so that it no longer unpleasantly, rapidly flashes When casting spells in camp, the last spell cast will remain selected after the spell effect completes Message at Inn detailing the experience needed to level up now requires a button press to dismiss, preventing the player from accidentally sel

Fixed an issue that was preventing new spells from being awarded properly when leveling Possibly addressed an uncommon issue that was causing save data to be overwritten by default data (Please let us know if you still see it - we're having trouble reproducing it!) Addressed the unnecessary launching of VR applications Fixed some legacy UI timing around chests that should reduce the likelihood getting into a bad state that would prevent you from opening chest (A proper fix is "coming soon") Reduced a potentially long delay, under certain situations, when the legacy UI was communicating a surpr
