Rouge-like deck builder Platonic ideal

Slay the Spire is a masterpiece of card game and video games design. The game is simple and accessible to more casual gamers but also incredible depth to those who wish to plumb it. I have over 250 hours in the game and have obtained all achievements and only feel like I've only stratched the surface of the game. You cannot go wrong with Slay the Spire. Worth every penny even at full price.

goood gaem

Overall well designed & fun game. Things are balanced well in my opinion (for a single player roguelike). Sure there are certain combinations & synergies that feel OP (and fun!) when you get them working, but it feels like in most runs it takes player skill to get those combinations to come together while becoming familiar with the roguelike RNG of the spire. (Rarely you do just get lucky though.) The difficulty curve feels good, both in individual runs and in succesive runs when climbing through ascension levels. I like the four player characters. They offer a variety of playstyles and are diverse thematically so I think it's easy for people to find a playstyle/character they like. The events you can run into between floors are well written. When I first saw my brother playing this game, I wasn't interested in trying it myself. I think at first glance the artstyle/animations looked cheap to me or something, even for an idie game. The gameplay is very good overall though, and now after playing it awhile I find the artstyle/visuals of the game charming. I'm excited for the sequel, hope it's as good or greater than the first spire.

It's fine

I wouldn't say that I truly enjoy playing Slay the Spire, but it's the type of game that is easy to pick up and play when you're not in the mood for either a narrative epic or online play. This is the kind of game that I might keep installed and go back to whenever I don't really feel like playing anything else because it feels like such a low commitment to just do another run. It can also run on a potato and can be played entirely using the mouse, so if you're feeling lazy or want to keep it installed on some junky laptop to kill time while you're travelling it's a pretty good game for that. It's fine, just nothing to get excited about, imo.

Amazingly well done rogue-like

Simple, well-balanced, fun, addicting. It's been a while since I liked a rogue-like this much! Another plus is a that it's a very performant game, even on my old Intel HD 3000.
