No idea what "Slay the Spire" is so I had to look it up:
https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/slay-the-spire-switch/
Cartoon makes more sense now!
It's on pretty much every platform, including GOG for those who want DRM-free, and even has a native Linux version.
It also goes on sale quite frequently for like 66% off. Definitely worth picking up at sale price.
For anyone already using using these services its also included in both Game Pass and PS+ Extra at the moment.
Wow, that's pretty incredible that it hadn't reached you all these years. Slay the Spire's predecessor is Dream Quest, which, in combination with the tabletop card game Dominion, spawned a whole subgenre of deck-building games.
Indies' Lies, Pirates Outlaws, Monster Train, Tainted Grail: Conquest, Griftlands, and so many more are all direct descendants of StS. It was as revolutionary to indie gaming as FTL: Faster Than Light and Doukutsu Monogatari (Cave Story) were in their respective genres.
So there's a little bit of indie gaming history for you.
Yeah, I don't have the energy to sift through 500 garbage indie games to find the one gem. ;) As a rule, I don't bother with indie titles.
That's ironic because I've generally gotten way more enjoyment out of specific indie games than AAA. Whatever floats your boat, I s'pose.
Oh hello the-exact-opposite-of-me lmao
All of those games mentioned slap harder than 95% of the AAA games released in the past ten years imo and you could buy six for what a AAA game costs these days.
