    If you are wondering why there are so many options to skip getting cards or remove cards, think of it this way- There is a much, much better chance to get all 5 parts of exodia in a 10 card deck than it is in a 100 card deck.
    There are decks out there built to have almost 0 cards, so that you just keep on reshuffling your deck and picking your one good card. This is often done by using a bunch of "use it once in a fight, then remove it completely from the fight" cards

    I would also really recommend Breach Wanderers, it's a Indie game for mobile very much inspired by Slay The Spire with a couple of very cool twists.
    You can customize your starting deck and make different types of decks for different characters and also edit the card pool of possible cards that you would find for that deck.
    It is really a hidden gem in my opinion, it's also the first mobile game that I ever gave money to, because I wanted to support the devs, check it out! The last update is coming pretty soon and I'm very hyped for it.

    @fifthofascalante7311 Год назад

    I have clocked hundreds of hours in this game before I knew it, and believe gameplay is king. However, what made this game special is its gripping atmosphere, which I thought was eerie and depressing, but it’s hard to say. There’s just enough story “between the lines” that it makes you wonder what is actually happening there, just what is the Spire? It’s a case of less is much, much more. When I saw the outro at the end of my first successful run, I was sincerely touched. Something just clicked emotionally. Now that I own this game on multiple devices, I can’t believe I waited over a year, hoping the price would drop below -50%. I’ve become disillusioned with the games industry, and at this point believe that amazing games can’t be made on purpose. Masterpieces like this one are happy accidents, which can be counted on fingers and maybe toes. This is why the studios who made them can never recapture their magic. Treasure this one!

  • @CptMarkka
    @CptMarkka Год назад +1

    Played this for some time, and it's pretty fun. It's just too bad that sometimes (read: frequently) RNG can screw you over. And sometimes when you're having a great run and having a blast, the last boss is that stupid goddamn Time Eater thing that forcibly ends your turn after seven cards played and gets stronger with each turn to boot. There is such a thing as a build failure even if you do everything right, just because of this one boss. Or if all you get are trash cards. Still pretty fun, but some runs simply cannot be won with certain decks even if in every other instance the deck is a rock solid one. And you won't know when you're gonna get screwed by the game through no fault of your own.

    My friends and I are looking forward to the table top version of StS.
    Playing as the spire seems like it would be so fun.
    I do not have this game on steam but it is my go to for mobile gaming.
