SteamOS / Steam Deck
A Work in Progress -- Notes for running Dwarf Fortress (various versions) on a Steam Deck
Dwarf Fortress Versions
There are a lot of different version and they all run nicely in the SteamOS/Steam Deck environment. I usually break them into three categories.
- Premium - Classic - Legacy (v47)
Premium
For our purposes, this is the version that you would purchase from the Steam Store. It's excellent. It runs perfectly and the community controller support is great. You can also purchase the premium version and run it with classic glyphs.
Classic
The current version you download directly from the Bay12 Games site. Basically the premium version but with the classics glyphs. Runs great on the Steam Deck though the default Tiles and Colors really need to be adjusted for the best experience. Also, if not using a keyboard/mouse, you will need to setup the controller yourself.
Legacy
Before premium, fancy graphics, and a mouse interface there was the Legacy version. Currently that's v0.47.5 and it's available from the Bay 12 Games site. This wiki refers to it as DF2014.
