Cultist Simulator was already Steam Deck Verified with Native Linux support but Weather Factory have put out a brand new update, which aims to improve it even further. Always great to see attention to the details!

Be sure to check out contributor Scaine's original review of the game.

In the update released February 13th the developers noted they added (amongst a bunch of bug fixes):

  • Steam Deck support! A nice excuse to add a QoL/accessibility feature here and there.
  • Added 150% UI scale.
  • Added a Font Size setting. May lead to stranger looks on higher ends.

More about it:

Cultist Simulator is a game of apocalypse and yearning from Alexis Kennedy, creator of Fallen London and Sunless Sea. Play as a seeker after unholy mysteries, in a 1920s-themed setting of hidden gods and secret histories. Perhaps you're looking for knowledge, or power, or beauty, or revenge. Perhaps you just want the colours beneath the skin of the world.

In this roguelike narrative card game, what you find may transform you forever. Every choice you make, from moment to moment, doesn't just advance the narrative - it also shapes it.

You can buy it from:

GOG

Humble Store

Steam

It's really cool if old games still see support.

I hope this also fixes the keyboard scrolling issue, which is really annoying on the Deck. That issue has already been fixed in Book of Hours, so backporting the fix to CS would imho make sense.

crazy that they keep updating this game but don't make basic changes to make the gameplay tolerable: right click to close windows, keyboard shortcuts, easier card stacking and movement. the entire mechanic is moving cards around and it just feels terrible to do.
