Slay the Spire 2 is one of if not the best roguelike deck builders i've ever played. The amount of passion and thought behind each card from its art to synergies with other cards is outstanding. Im 300 hours into the game and I am still finding new ways that cards interact. The characters are all extremely fun and easy to pick up as well as to master. Each characters design is so charming in their unique ways to the point where I couldn't pick one character and stick with them because all the characters pulled my attention. As well as this, Slay the Spire 2 has one of the best multiplayer intergrations that i've seen. The unique cards that multiplayer gives you creates so much insentive to try to combo and synergise with your party. I've poured at least 100 of my hours into getting in a vc with some friends and running up the spire. As well as everything listed the game is stupid easy to run, I have a couple of friends with older PCs that I cant play too many games with and they were able to run this game easily. Overall Slay the Spire 2 is probably my favourite videogame of all time, and its not even fully released yet.

It is more "Final Destination" that STS. Would be a very good sequel, if rubber band engine were dialed back a touch. Far too many runs have "perfect counters" in the subsequent acts. It's not even as if they try to hide it. "You're having a decent run? here, have mid bosses (plural) in a non-elite encounter. Woopsies how'd that get in there uwu! oh! you lived? here have another, and another, and another...."
