Quote:

We fused card games and roguelikes together to make the best single player deckbuilder we could. Craft a unique deck, encounter bizarre creatures, discover relics of immense power, and Slay the Spire!

Two core characters that each have their own unique set of cards. (With more planned)
200+ fully implemented cards.
50+ unique combat encounters.
100+ different items to be found.
Procedurally generated levels.
Tons of unlockables.


Saw the game is getting pretty good reviews so I tried it and then bought. Its basically a card game / roguelike. Pretty fun from a few hours of gameplay.

It does look neat, but only having 2 character classes currently kind of put me off it. Will definitely be keeping an eye on it though!

So shouldn´t this one be out of EA soon?.

Tempted but not sure. I understand it´s a collectible card game with a proceduraly generated campaign like in darkest dungeon?. Did anybody try it?, is it any good?.

I find it pretty fun. It can be very short there's 3 floors and my fastest run through to the finish was about 30 min. Since card drops are random you kinda have to work with some RNG when building your deck and try and come up with the best combos you can.

There is now also a third class and "endless mode" is in the beta branch.

I've put about 50 hours in this game and keep coming back to it.


I like that you build your deck as you go, basically from random drops, and together with tons of different artifacts that give all kinds of bonuses you can get some outlandish combinations that are just fun to play.

The controls are great too and it feels very much like hearthstone, very intuitive. Tooltips tell you everything you need to know about the cards and their abilities.


The fact that it's all random means you can not always rely on the same strategies so it stays fresh. The game plays very differently depending on your deck and your items in any given run.

If you want more weirdness thrown in there's even automatic daily runs with fixed seeds (same for everyone) and mutators applied like building your own deck hearthstone arena style at the start or getting 2 extra copies of every card you obtain in the run (escalates quickly Razz)
These dailies are also scored on your first try so you can compete on the leaderboards if that's your thing.


Overall excellent game I'd say. Would recommend. Easily worth the 10€
It does get a little repetitive but for that price I think that's fine.

I saw in some video some gameplay of another game that looked a LOT like Darkest Dungeon, anyone know the name? It was as gritty as DD and had similar UI, it's not Slay the Spire with its cards thing at the bottom ... I think.

slay the spire just changed endless mode to custom mode in beta, where you can set any combination of modifiers from the daily runs. endless is now just one of those modifiers.

great stuff!
