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.

The newest engine version 5.2.1 is now out for Linux!
Our team has addressed issues running DROD:GatEB on Mac. Please try out this updated version and let us know if you still experience any issues. Thanks for your patience!
Several fixes and improvements to the 5.2 release. View change notes on the Caravel Forum.
DROD 5.2 is released with many bug fixes, performance improvements, and level editor scripting additions. See the full change log on the Caravel Forum.
DROD RPG 2 is complete and in Valve's release approval queue! We expect it to be marked ready for publication and available to buy in a couple weeks.View the DROD RPG 2 store preview page here and wishlist the game to be notified immediately when released!
The Descent of King Hesper is a newly-released quality hold (expansion) for DROD that you can play now for free. It is the culmination of ten years of work by 45 architects, testers, writers, spriters, and programmers from the Caravel community who wanted to share their creation with the world. It is similar in style to the official holds, starting at beginner-level difficulty, exploring game elements one at a time, and ramping up to expert-level puzzles. There are lots of bonus puzzles and secret areas to find along the way. This hold is absolutely massive -- nearly 2,500 rooms and 150 levels
This is an update to the DROD game engine. This version features many game logic and cosmetic/rendering bug fixes, plus performance and stability improvements, and an SDL2 library version upgrade. The full change log is here.
Treacle Stew, a fiendishly clever new Smitemaster's Selection expansion pack has been released! Features many insidious gel-based puzzles and a brand new story following DROD: The Second Sky. You can get Treacle Stew at the Steam store page here. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25658389/ad76c2931cd302a3b7e289cbf61d03d76c3a027f.png
The DROD Travelogue soundtracks are now available for purchase on Steam! The City Beneath Soundtrack Gunthro and the Epic Blunder Soundtrack The Second Sky Soundtrack 90 tracks! Over four hours of music! View the details for each at the above links.
Smitemaster's Selection DLC updates have been deployed to address CaravelNet functionality issues. The holds Beethro's Teacher and Complex Complex have been updated to the latest version available on CaravelNet. The Choice has also been synced to the current version on CaravelNet. CaravelNet functionality should now be active and working properly for these three DLC holds.
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. If you’ve paid any attention to my scribblings over the last few years, one of the recurrent themes you may have noticed is my hatred of puzzles games. Or rather, as I like to say, their hatred of me. But, as I’ve acknowledged in the past, wrap a strong theme or story around the puzzles and I might be fooled into paying attention, and from there I can be won over completely. The Deadly Rooms of Death series, a fantasy RPG that is actually a puzzle game, almost got m
You can now pick up a copy of the original DROD trilogy as DLC for "Gunthro": King Dugan's Dungeon Journey to Rooted Hold The City Beneath The titles are available either separately or as a bundle. Each title has its own set of achievements and has been upgraded to make use of features in the new version 5.0 game engine. The best things come to those who wait. Thanks for your patience while we worked to make these releases shine!

A critical level editor bug was observed in DROD:GatEB on Steam. This issue causes odd room placement errors in the game's level editor. It exists for anyone playing the game before this announcement went up on 9/25. We patched this issue in the game engine as soon as we learned of it. However, in order to fix the issue on your end, you will need to reset your local player data files once by doing the following: Export your player progress (optional): Go to the Main Menu, click "Change Player", then click "Export" to save your player game progress to a file on disk. Delete the game's local dat
