Quick Answer: How Do You Control Dicevaders?

Dicevaders is a turn-based placement game, not an action game — inputs are selection, placement and menu navigation rather than twitch timing. The full game lists `controller_support: full` on Steam (confirmed 2026-09-29 via the store API, upgraded from the demo listing) and carries the Steam Deck Verified badge, confirmed in the official 2026-10-02 Patch #1 announcement. The developers' patch notes also document specific controller and Steam Deck fixes: bigger tooltips for Deck screens, controller improvements during drafting and bug fixes in the compendium.

  • Mouse + keyboard: the default PC scheme — point, place, and navigate the dice row and grid.
  • Controller: full support confirmed on the Steam store (`controller_support: full`), including drafting and compendium navigation.
  • Steam Deck: Verified — confirmed in the official 2026-10-02 Patch #1 announcement, on top of the earlier tooltip-scaling and controller fixes.
  • Touch: not confirmed in any official material yet.
The full default keybinding list is not published at launch; this page updates once the developers document it.
