Ive been loving this game. Its a card game with lots of depth to the optimization and some RNG but its not overly punishing. If youre looking for a fun casual game try it out! Its less than $10 on sale right now.

    If you like slay the spire I’d recommend playing inscryption as well. It’s very similar but focuses more on combining cards to break the game.

      Bought both around the same time awhile back and absolutely love each one. Inscription feels more involved, but Slay the Spire has some really fun mods. I would also recommend both.

    Once you’re finished up with it, I really recommend Monster Train. Slay the Spire is great, but I never finished it 100%. Monster Train I still go back to randomly even after putting 100+ hours into it. The game actively encourages you to try and break it, finding the right combination of cards and artifacts to truly be OP. I think it would even be impossible to beat most of the difficulties if you don’t lean into that.

      It’s funny, I feel the same way just reversed. Really liked both, but StS is a forever game for me and I think it’s the game I own on the most platforms (PC, switch, and android)

      Works great on my Surface. Only thing is you have to keep the keyboard attached for it to work. But you can flip it back and still play with just the touchscreen.

      I watch Baalalord stream it on twitch, and that has massively helped my game play. I’m now on ascension lvl 10 on ironclad, and 6 on the other characters. I used to never be able to beat a run.

    I’ve sunk so many hours into Slay the Spire, such a good game.

    I think at this point it’s a “comfort game” for me that I go back to occasionally if I don’t feel like playing anything new or am having a bad day.

    I used to play hearthstone but needed to delete it to get out of the loot cycle. This was a healthier replacement and can be played offline.

      Slay the Spire is awesome, but I have really struggled with the mobile port of the game. Do you play it on mobile? What do you play it on? I’ve played it on the Switch and the game was great, but when I tried playing it on my android I could barely control the cards.

        I actually had been waiting for a touch screen port and was pretty impressed when it finally came

    Bought it a long time ago, beat it once (as in l reached one of the final bosses and defeated him), then totally forgot about it. Might replay it now that you’ve reminded me of it. Thanks!

    I’ve poured over 1000 hours into Spire. It has consumed my life. Help me.

    The vanilla game is amazing enough as is, but once you’ve mastered A20H with all four characters do check out the thriving mod scene. My favorites:

    Characters:
    The Packmaster - If you play just one mod character, make it this one. Absolutely top notch collab.
    The Adventurer
    The Thorton
    The Shaman
    The Bladedancer
    The Aquatic
    The Avocado
    Robot Space Explorer

    Gameplay/content addons:
    Chimera Cards
    Spire Locations
    Reliquary
    One Hundred Relics
    Wandering Minibosses
    Battle Towers

    QoL/misc:
    Minty Spire
    Bestiary
    Googly Eyes

    Slay the Spire is great. My favorite deckbuilder and if you ever get bored there is a huge modding community

    I wanted to get this game on my phone but apparently it hasn’t been updated in a while and isn’t supported on newer versions of Android.

    My roommate recommended Dawncaster though, and I’ve sunk just too many hours into it.
