    Accessible, deep, addictive and full of variety: Slay the Spire is the definitive card game on consoles.

    Card-based combat doesn't get much more satisfying than in Slay The Spire and its roguelike campaign is quite a rewarding challenge.

I find myself playing this game more than AAA titles. It has a good deal of randomness and unlockables to keep things interesting.
    I have ~30 hours playtime and it’s still fun. I didn’t expect to fall in love with this game!

The way your character traverses maps is very similar to FTL, navigating enemies, merchants, and miscellaneous encounters as you head to the boss encounter of each zone. If FTL is a 9, then Slay the Spire is fairly an 8, as it lacks the combat complexity and incredible soundtrack of FTL. Expand

With it's own unique artistic style, Slay the spire crossesSlay The Spire is a Card Based Combat Tower with procedurally generated paths. With it's own unique artistic style, Slay the spire crosses turn based combat with deck building. Pick from one of three characters, each with their own special game mechanic to utilize against your opponents. Each character starts with 10 cards, and is granted one of three cards after each combat victory. Chose your path as you ascend the Spire, with a new path generated with every play through. You will collect artifacts as you progress, that change the rules, each in their own magical way. A map Seed system is in place so you can also challenge the same path over and over by using the unique set of letters and numbers, or whatever you want to enter. Each path contains Battles, Random Encounnters, Shops and Camps. Battles pit you against random foes, and you do not normally heal afterwards. Random encounters can vary wildly, from combat to epic treasure. Shops sell cards potions and artifacts, potions being one time use, that causes different effects. The game play of Slay the Spire is down right addictive, you can move at your own pace, and beating the elite, and boss encounters are gratifying. Slay the Spire is a unique and challenging, experience that fans of both Card Games, and Turn Based RPGs will enjoy! Expand

    I played a lot in a short time. A nice card game, really. But after some hours it is always the same. And you play alone. And when you're doneI played a lot in a short time. A nice card game, really. But after some hours it is always the same. And you play alone. And when you're done the end is not very satisfying. It says, you have to do it all again. And again. And again.
    The characters are good balanced and have some unique abilities. But after some runs you say, it's enough. Maybe with multiplayer I would have more motivation to play more.

    C'est laid à faire peur et franchement ça fait peur, tellement c'est laid ! en 2D 16 couleurs, boulotté à l'arrache par quelque clampin et polio du clavier qui s'est cru intelligent lorsqu'il s'est cogné contre la cuvette des WC. Et du coup, voilà qu'il nous a démoulé son... "jeu" !

    Remballe ton étron, dégage ta terrine, et surtout, ne demande pas d'argent pour ça : c'est une honte de faire des trucs pareils et d'oser le... vendre (?!?). Même gratuit, on n'en veut pas de ton sous-sous-produit !
