“I honestly played this game under the impression it was going to be Mega Man Battle Network. At the end of the day, it is not; it is its own game. To my surprise, it is not necessarily a bad thing. Not just in gameplay, but even in the story, everything has a unique aspect.…”
— a player, Steam review · 29 hrs played“Amazing roguelike with just the right amount of complexity and VERY satisfying combos. The grid is not very important tbh, so if you're looking for an ITB-like game this isn't it. What I loved was the break system, adds a lot of depth. Huge replayability btw”
— a player, Steam review · 7 hrs played“Do you feel That Slay the Spire is too restrictive and audio-visually boring? Do you miss Mega Man Battle Network? The game can be for you! I could talk about the things the game does but better for you to try the demo. This title simply beams positive energy”
