What players say
A solid 8/10 for me. I personally consider it one of the best deckbuilders on steam. Took me ~150hrs to finally beat the game and 100% it, I thoroughly enjoyed my time with it. The difficulty of it doesn't feel punishing with the length of the runs and there is a high variety of combinations that feel really fun to experiment around with from a gameplay perspective. There's a very good balance in this game between...
It's pretty easy to learn, and not particularly hard to complete. Pretty fun, but maybe not if you expect something hardcore.
I don't like this game because they don't do predictions themselves for damage and it's too time consuming to play this manually calculating everything. Slay the spire doesn't have this sort of issue as there's far less going on in a round. Play monster train instead if you're also not interested in calculating everything else out yourself every round.
