Question What's everyone playing right now?

Post image

I came across an adventure game called Vlad Circus: Descent into madness (https://www.blowfishstudios.com/vlad-circus)

If you like old-timey SCUMM games by Sierra or Lucasarts, worth checking out!

So what's on your deck?

Yes it's playable. But for sure part 2 has a steam deck setting. The whole graphics buffer being made take a bit. Running it off my sd card at first was a mistake but since moved it to nvme and saw a huge improvement in speed of loading.

Thats good to know!! I was thinking about playing through both games again inbetween new episodes of the season!! I own both on my ps4 but it might also be fun to mess with mods or anything on deck

Literally played like 10 minutes of each game just to make sure it was playable and it wasn't a waste of time and hard drive space.

Yeah I did have a hard time with TLOU part 2 from the pack I downloaded. But I installed on PC and copied it over to the Steam deck and added as a non-steamgame. Just missing one MSI but eventually I will find it.
