The Encroaching

The Encroaching is a digital board game for 1–4 players where you build a map one tile at a time then confront the threats that follow those choices. Hidden roles, secret objectives and a corruption creeping through the city means every placement counts, and not everyone may be who they claim to be.

Depots

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.

Every appinfo change SteamRaw has observed, grouped by changelist. Tags, features, languages, builds, depots, prices and any other key Steam publishes. Tracking since 2026-09-11 22:58 UTC.

No changes recorded since SteamRaw first saw this app. Every future PICS change will be listed here.
