Slay the Spire combines turn-based card battles with a succession of changing routes through a tower. Players add cards during a run and look for interactions between their deck and the relics they collect. Four characters have their own card pools, while different encounters and bosses make route selection part of the strategy. Daily Climbs and a custom mode offer alternatives to the ordinary ascent. The listing is for the original single-player game; the sequel and soundtrack appear as separate products, including in some bundles.
