Monster Train 2 is potentially the greatest deck builder of all time. The pure amount of content, builds, and challenges is ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING. The rooms and equipment have added to the game's complexity and satisfaction immensely. Originally when the game came out, the old clans offered little to nothing, but they have been painstakingly rebuilt, and new cards added to make them better fit. 10 clans. You pick a main, and ally each run. That's 90 combinations IF you DON'T INCLUDE the fact that each clan has two base cards to offer. If you include the different base cards, that's 180 different setups. The builds are addictive. Absolutely destroying a run makes me cackle like an evil villain from a silent black and white movie. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH! Absolutely astonishing how fun this game is. I loved the first one, but the devs have really outdone themselves. This game is better than any other deckbuilder I've played, and I'm excited to be playing it for a long, long time.

Monster Train 2 is an example of a perfect “safe” sequel. Shiny Shoe took all of the rough edges of the first game and sanded them off, then added just enough new mechanics to be interesting without overwhelming. Not every sequel has to reinvent the wheel. Sometimes we just want more and Monster Train 2 absolutely delivered that for me.

Instant buy if you like deckbuilders. This is a straight upgrade to Monster Train 1 (which you should play beforehand!) The story is laughably bad, but gameplay is king and MT2 is unmatched in this genre.

The narrative is laughable, the character art is probably not for everyone, the animation is non-traditional, there are a LOT of surface-level reasons not to like Monster Train 2. But ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ if this isn't one of the best deck-building games out there. Get past your hesitations and dive into one of the meatiest, most challenging card games out there. These guys really know how to develop new gameplay mechanics and make. fun. stuff. period.

For a couple weeks this year, Monster Train 2 was the only thing I was playing in my spare time. I think MT2 is a huge step up from the original game, which was already a great game in its own right. If you’ve played the first, or enjoy deck-building roguelikes then you’ll probably have fun with Monster Train 2. The big thing for me is how much less strict MT2 is compared to other deck-builders. There are a lot of different ways to solve even the games’ toughest encounters, which helps to keep runs from feeling overly samey. Granted, it won’t feel that way when you first start with certain cards (like Zone of Silence) being easy blanket solutions to a lot of the different encounters. However, as you play more, and become familiar with a wider variety of cards, you should find it easier to cinch out a win regardless of which cards you find along your run. Heck, discovering how to use each card to the fullest is a big part of why I sunk so many hours into Monster Train 2, which you can read more about here: https://frostilyte.ca/2025/07/23/every-card-is-a-puzzle-in-monster-train-2/ As for returning players: a bevy of new keywords have been added in MT2, alongside new equipment and room cards. This means there are a boatload of new problems to solve, and a variety of different solutions to solve them with. There’s also new Pyre types which give you access to various passive effects throughout your run like a single use heal per combat encounter, or the ability to duplicate cards at shops (for a nominal fee). These add an additional layer of strategy to how you approach each run, and also lead to some fun run combos when you lock in on all random (2 random clans + random pyre). That’s all to say that there’s a lot here if you already enjoyed the original Monster Train.
