Soulmask hasn't been out for long, but the latest crafting survival game has already carved out a niche and built a player base. But those numbers probably don't reflect many controller-based players.
100 HOURS Review – Should You PLAY This Game? – SOULMASK
Controller support is incredibly crucial for games on Steam these days, especially since the release of Steam Deck. Open-world crafting games like Soulmask now need to offer full controller support to ensure they don’t miss out on a crucial part of the gaming audience.
You can technically use a controller while playing Soulmask, but the game doesn't offer full controller support and it's not exactly a controller-friendly experience.
The biggest downside to using a controller in Soulmask is that you can't open any menus other than the main menu. This means you can't open the mask node menu, your inventory, or your clan menu without using the keyboard. You can open crafting stations or bonfires by interacting with them, but you can't transfer items or craft recipes using a controller.
