TableTop RPG Talisman: Digital 5th Edition was released quite some time ago, back in November 2024, but it's still receiving support from developer Nomad Games, and the latest update is of particular note to Steam Deck users, with it featuring a new "Text Size Toggle" for card descriptions. You can check out the difference in text size in the images below.

That wasn't the only change made in the update, though, with Nomad Games stating that they've also worked on improving the clarity of the game board by denoising and dehazing the board artwork to create a clearer image for those on smaller displays, such as the Steam Deck.

Beyond this, a toggle has also been added to play with traditional dice, featuring the standard 1-6 dots to denote the number you rolled, as opposed to dice featuring the "Talisman" logo to depict certain numbers, which led to some confusion.

The Improved Board Artwork

Talisman: Digital 5th Edition is $29.99 and is rated as "Playable" due to small in-game text and sometimes requiring manual invoking of the onscreen keyboard.
