Slay the Spire: The Board Game

It's rare to find a board game that hooks me into wanting to play just one... more... room... but this one does. It's a fascinating evolution of the computer game. For computer game veterans, it's familiar and you can feel your skills transferring, and at the same time it's a brilliant re-scaling of all of the systems, which gives you a lot to explore. For newcomers, the core gameplay loop of incrementally making small but collectively very impactful improvements to your deck (then tough fights to test and punish your deck in different ways) is right there to welcome them in.

Cool like video game. Now it is possible to enjoy this gem with friends. I'm not sure would I play this as solo (because video game already exist).

One of the best experiences I've had in a co-op board game! The deck building is awesome!

Es una nota preeliminar, pero pocas veces había terminado tan contento una partida. Es el mejor deckbuilding que he probado por el momento, el modo cooperativo esta realmente muy bien pensado, teniendo ese aspecto de multisolitario relativo a la creación del mazo y el enfoque que le quieres dar a la build, pero luego necesitando esa organización y comunicación para poder ir lidiando con los enemigos de la manera más eficiente posible. En ese segundo aspecto del juego si que hay factor líder, pero aún que alguien dirija, tu mazo lo juegas tú.

Easily one of the best games i have ever played. It works so well. Easy to explain and setup, nearly no downtime between turns, piece management is easy enough, tons of rewards and progress in each session. Quality of the cards and storage solution is top notch.

Does a good job of capturing the essence of the video game. The coop is well done, although it doesn't seem terribly balanced (that is, the game feels quite easier the more people you have).

I've only played it at 1 and at 4. I want to try at 2, since it seems like the sweet spot. It dragged a little at 4 (due to the "weakest link" slowing the game down) and felt at 1 that I'd rather be playing the video game.

Great production!

A fun coop deck builder where you fight various baddies. Levelling up your deck and improving your abilities was nice.

The combat was a bit lackluster. Doesn't do anything too original, but really succeeds in what it intended to do.

Rating could go up with more plays.

Like it ok as a dungeon crawler, but it didn't blow my skirt up.
