I see a lot of comparisons with Cobalt Core, which is a fine, cute, little and cozy game. Lonestar is much, much more than that, Its replayability is on par with the biggest exponents of the genre, as StS, Monster Train, etc. The amount of content and possible strategies is crazy: - 3 very distinguishible spaceships with their own gimmicks - A vast amount of units for each spaceship, all with different themes and possible synergies. There are no "must have" units, which is the beauty of this game. You can find any unit useful if you build around it. - Dozens of pilots, each with their unique talent that you can use to build around it. - Dozens of treasures (relics). - Plenty of different enemies and bosses. As in any roguelike, it's possible that some of them counter a bit your current build, but it never seems impossible or unfair. - Lots of different events out and in battle. It doesn't quite play like a deckbuilder, think it more like a dice roguelike like Astrea, Spellrogue or Dicey Dungeons, where any unit is available for use at any turn and you decide which is the optimum way to charge them with the energy (dices) you get. My only slight complaint is that it doesn't have the heart of games like Cobalt Core, with characters you grow fond of. But that's the same case as StS, Astrea, MT, etc. These kind of games focus on replayability much more than any other aspect, and that is mostly what I look for in games of this genre. If you are like me, Lonestar is a game you can't miss.

This game answers the question, "What if One Deck Dungeon didn't suck and was themed around space ships?". The mood of the game is reminiscent of FTL, with lots of great flavor text and nods here and there to other bounty hunter IPs like Cowboy Bebop. I don't know why people are tagging this with Card Battler or Roguelike Deckbuilder because it's not that, but that's a great thing. I'm frankly getting sick of "deck" mechanics in roguelikes. Boardgame players may find the mechanics familiar, similar to a dice game with some light worker-placement. I got this game for free on Epic store and enjoyed it so much that I bought it on Steam to support the devs.

Played one match so far but wow this is an ingeniously simple and deep game. Make your number bigger than your opponent seems like it would be boring but the way you generate power is soooooo varied and complex. I love how the different component work with each other to build synergy, sort of like Backpack Hero type games. I'm excited to play more of this. Highly recommend.

This was my first, and so far only, dice based game. I liked it a fair bit, it was well worth the price. I'd give the game a 7.5/10 score.

I've played through 5-6 games, and each run felt very different. For example, one game I got a strength buff for being under 10hp, and then I got an event to trade Max HP for shield. So I dumped all the max HP and I was cooking. I haven't found the difficulty curve to be too hard. I think I have like a 75% win rate, and I'm now on the 5th ascension. But it's not a cake walk, and you will often need to prioritize gearing up for the next fight over taking long-term scaling. In the first couple of fights, you are maybe 10% stronger than the enemies, and if you don't scale up fast, they will overtake you. As a Con, some of the descriptions on the abilities aren't great, and it's a game where understanding how exactly mechanics work is very important. There is an encyclopedia, and when it's descriptive enough it's great. But there are still some gaps in how things are explained.
