I’ve sunk probably a thousand hours into Slay the Spire, have beaten Hades, and just finished Cult of the Lamb. Looking for something else to scratch that itch- preferably on switch. Any suggestions?

    I can vouch for nearly all of the suggestions in this thread, and suggest one I haven’t seen: Vampire Survivors. I’m not one much for anything to do with vampires, but the mechanics with this one are really pretty good.

    If you’ve ever seen bullet hell games like Touhou, it’s kind of like that, but you are the bullet hell. You also only have one real control during the action part of the game and that is to move your character around the non-stop enemy swarms that come at you.

    Your character has a weapon and automatically uses that weapon without any input from you, and as you kill enemies, you collect gems that allow you to upgrade that weapon that constantly fires. You also get chances for other item and weapons upgrades with the intent to learn their “unions” (a la The Binding of Isaac) where items work together to create fantastical “bullet heaven” screen-clearing destruction.

    There’s probably a wiki about it, but it’s really pretty damn good.
