I wanted to try a new type of post: just taking a particular videogame and see if there are others who would like to talk about it.

To start I'm taking Slay The Spire. A beautifully balanced game with infinite replayability. What are your favorite classes? What is your favorite way to win the game? What is the highest ascension you've beaten? Are there similar games you enjoy? Let's go!

One of my favourite games! I've got over 400 hours on Steam and some more on mobile. Did all achievements but I'm still struggling with A20 Heart kills so I haven't gotten tired of it yet. My favourite class is probably the Silent. I also like the Watcher a lot, but she's a bit too easy and her decks can feel a bit too similar. The Ironclad has grown on me since I've realised that the exhaust cards are good actually. And that he's not really focused on attacks. Defect is my least favourite but I do play all four. My favourite way to win is with Snecko Eye! Getting an early Snecko Eye and then picking all the expensive cards is a lot of fun.

I've been meaning to play a few similar games like Monster Train or Wildfrost but so far I've always felt like I need to get back to StS to improve a bit more instead.

For people looking to improve I'd recommend jorbs and Baalorlord on Twitch and YouTube, they're chill and very good at the game.

A similar game I really enjoy is Beneath Oresa.
