April 2025
Plays a lot like Slay the Spire, with these differences: * You control two characters with their own unique decks * Positioning is important for the characters and enemies. Only the leading character can be hit * Summons play an important role * Cards are upgraded with gems that add properties to the card * There is a hex overworld that is either fun or annoying depending on your preferences :) It's different enough and I recommend it if you are looking for another deckbuilder to scratch that itch.

Its good but its WAY TOO SLOW. Instead of just choosing what to do, you have to walk the map and go back and forth to progress, even to check the shop. The combat animations are locked to 1X speed, card draw animation is slow, starting the run, everything is slow. You EASILY waste an close HOUR per run (my average is 1.5 hours) just walking and waiting for stuff to resolve. I dont want to give a negative review because its a good game but after 10 hours I dont wanna play anymore because of this.

Roguebook does a good job at being "similar, yet different" to StS. So if you're in that purgatory of wanting to play StS but not wanting to play more StS, this could be the move. I would never recommend it to someone who wasn't sick of playing Slay the Spire - just go play that then. The most important thing to remember when playing Roguebook is that the "card rewards" are not really rewards - they are basically "shops" and it's best to think about them that way. You get to see what's on offer, but you really can just keep those 25gp instead, and you'll have one less card in your deck and be 25gp richer. That said, Roguebook feels very clearly designed by someone who played a bunch of Slay the Spire, liked it, understood what was good about it, then tried to make a game that was similar - but different in key ways. In StS (and most other games of this type) you have to prune your deck a lot, and big chunky decks are bad. That's just a dynamic that comes up on its own in this type of game. Roguebook has like a dozen different bits of design clearly intended to counterbalance this somewhat, so that mid-sized and even pretty large decks are actually quite playable. There are literal rewards, several rules keywords found on cards e.g. related to the size of your draw pile, there are ways of getting more card draw or cycling, etc. Having a big deck might be why you're dealing a lot of damage, blocking a lot of damage, drawing more cards, why you have more cool talents unlocked for this run, etc. Ultimately, the game is balanced so that mid-sized or even real bigboi decks are very playable and kinda fun and chaotic. Smaller decks still work for the same reasons they always work, so it's more of a rebalance. The central gimmick of combining two different characters and swapping between then when you use defensive cards is well integrated in the game. It helps make the game feel different from StS. You can combine different characters to get different talents to choose from. It works. While Roguebook is overall a very good game with excellent design, it's just a really tall order to try to make anything that wouldn't be unfavorably compared to a game as incredible as StS. But I'm a pretty critical guy and I think it's good enough - at least, good enough for those of us in "StS purgatory". What else are we gonna do, play StS again? For everyone else, I recommend Slay the Spire instead.

I am FLABBERGASTED this game didn't reach the heights of Monster Train in popularity. It steals most good mechanics of Slay the Spire and then makes a whole new game around them, while being far prettier to look at. This is an absolutely EXCELLENT roguelike deckbuilder, easily the second best in the genre.

Very fun roguelike deckbuilder. Overtly worships Spire in pretty much every way, but there are a few things that set it apart that I really enjoy. For one there's actual map exploration with tiles you uncover, so finding as many hidden items/combats/upgrades before facing the boss has been very rewarding. There's also a much heavier emphasis on meta progression, which is not found in Spire. There are upgrade trees and such, so if you miss that in Spire, you get it here. Last but not least you play the game with two heroes instead of one, so you can mix and match your perfect duo, swap rows and create synergies between the two. I also really like the allies, little familiars that do bonus damage or have other abilities. I've only scratched the surface but I will definitely be unlocking more in the game.
