By its very nature, a Slay the Spire board game would be a perfect fit, and now Contention Games have confirmed that they’re working on one!Īs Eurogamer reports, the upcoming board game will be a 1-4 player cooperative adventure, which is an interesting proposition considering the fact that the game has always been a solo experience. That’s the very essence of Slay the Spire. Players will be familiar with the simple yet fine-tuned gameplay, the range of strategies and cards on offer, the randomized paths, Relic options and such that can make or break a run.

The roguelike and deck-building genres may seem to be odd bedfellows, but they gelled together with aplomb here ( see also: Dicey Dungeons, which arrived on Nintendo Switch last month).Īs tends to be the case with roguelikes, players’ slaying of the Spire isn’t exactly accompanied by the deepest of stories. MegaCrit’s 2019 sensation Slay the Spire is, for many, another essential title for anybody with an interest in such games. Titles like Supergiant Games’ phenomenal Hades (the best game of 2020, according to Steam reviews) brilliantly bridged the gap for those who don’t ‘do’ the genre usually, demonstrating just how lovingly crafted, brilliantly balanced and outrageously addictive these games can really be. Now, it’s no secret that roguelikes have been very much de rigueur in the gaming industry for some time now. Until the Kickstarter campaign launches later this year we won't have any concrete details on how the designers have pulled this task off.Fans of the much-acclaimed Slay the Spire, rejoice! The game will soon have another way to ruthlessly devour hours upon hours of your lives. Some games, such as T he Sorcerer's Cavedo feature elements such as random dungeon creation and perma-death but translating a game where the map changes on each attempt could bring some unique challenges for the designers, although there are precedents for it with maps being built by tiles each game in games like Mage Knight. The original Slay The Spirefeatures roguelike elements but right now it is not clear how they'll be translated into the tabletop version. Roguelite Card Game To Tabletop Deckbuilder Although we don't know much about the game's specific mechanics, we do know that it'll be a deckbuilding game tasking players accruing enough power to defeat monsters, gain relics and eventually 'slay the spire' as the name suggests. Slay The Spire: The Board Game is a co-op experience for 1-4 players, a departure from the original's single-player-only mechanics.
