The great part about taking the train instead of a plane to visit family for thanksgiving is watching the autumn scenery roll by outside the window while I get dunked by the Time Eater on for building a Shiv deck on mobile Slay the Spire. #SlayTheSpire
Alright. We are slowly, very slowly, getting into a season where there's more to show. So!
In an hour, join me over at the game4access Twitch channel where I will be taking a look at #slayTheSpire and how it can be played when fully #blind. We'll be discussing this #game's #accessibility as we play it and no doubt get horribly destroyed multiple times. https://twitch.tv/game4access is where it's at. #selfPromo#twitch#streamer
Playing #SlayTheSpire doing the daily climb. I had a card called Omniscience. What it does is allow you to pull a card out of your drawer pile and immediately play it twice.
It took me until halfway through act 2 to realize I could be casting the second Omniscience in my deck instead of the card I regularly went for, so instead of just playing Omniscience then Ragnarok, I chose the second Omniscience, then Ragnarok and whatever else did the most damage in my draw pile.
I absolutely adore this game because figuring stuff like this out is just so satisfying.
Definitely the best game I've bought in the last 2 years. And no crappy micro transactions or DLC.
@Retrosponge ya the number of different interactions in slay the spire is mind boggling.
I'm at asc 20 with all characters and I still find novel ways to use cards. I've been picking cards that don't seem good on its surface and incorporating them into strange decks - usually uncolored cards
@takishan
I still haven't unlocked the final character as I have yet to complete a run on the regular game. I've completed several on the daily climb.
It's just such a rewarding game figuring out these things. And that light bulb moment tonight with Omniscience was just great fun. Absolutely slaughtered some elites using it. Sadly I died to the final boss as the random deck it gave me at the start had no block cards in it pretty much so I was scrambling for defense.
Published a very quick, user-requested mod for #SlayTheSpire: flight mode! It's like the Flight custom modifier (or an infinite version of the Rocket Boots), albeit for regular games.
Hey, just a friendly reminder that Slay the Spire is a really fun game, addictive, unable to stop, will likely ruin your life. Ahem, excuse me. I've got to go do important things that totally aren't playing Slay the Spire.
Trying out #MonsterTrain since I’ve mostly settled into a holding pattern in #SlayTheSpire (still pretty low ascensions, my best is 4, with Defect).
Early impressions: there's a lot "more” there in nearly every possible axis (numbers to track, design space, lore, audio-visual, etc), but it's almost overwhelming compared to Slay. I'll give it more time to sink in though.
Elevator pitch: “Slay the Spire, M:TG, and a tower defense game had a /real/ fun evening together about 9 months ago” 🤪
We played through Act I of a scenario of the #SlayTheSpire#BoardGame. It's a faithful adaptation of the digital game, and plays surprisingly well!
Corri played the Ironclad while I played the Silent. We downed the Act I boss, Hexaghost for us, just as the Ironclad was about to succumb.
My only complaint would be the instructions, which rely a bit too much on knowledge from the digital game. And as players who don't usually sleeve cards, a big "You MUST sleeve" warning would've helped.
#SlayTheSpire is ridiculously efficient, apparently? I can play a full 60 minutes of it on my iPad Air while on the exercise bike, and it will use like, 2-3% of the battery. Not 23%; 2-to-3%.
My various gachas and stuff like Civ VI would have eaten like 1/3-1/2 of the battery in that amount of time!
