After 894 hours in Slay the Spire 2, these are our 12 strongest opinions Our three editors have hundreds of runs in Slay the Spire 2. - Evan Lahti - Strategic Director, PC Gamer: 426 hours, 441 runs as Silent, Monster Train 2 evangelist, 30-minute wins with every character, plays fast and loose - Harvey Randall - Staff Writer, PC Gamer: 212 hours, won at least once at A10 on every character - Austin Wood - Senior Writer, GamesRadar+: 256 hours, won an A10 streak of every character, one by one Act 1 is too punishing and too boring The easiest way to clear Act 1 reliably is just to rest at every opportunity. —Evan Lahti, Strategic Director Monster Train 2 is a better game Hi, millions of Slay the Spire 2 players, especially those of you who are willing to watch 1.5-hour applied epistemology and machine learning lectures on YouTube to get better at this simple game—you should be playing Monster Train 2. Compared to Spire's basic actions of attack, block, draw/discard, potion, the list of levers I can pull in Monster Train 2 is pleasantly irregular: - The deployment phase: where and when to play a unit matters - Sacrificing your own units - Repositioning units or enemies for offensive or defensive purposes, or to trigger effects - Using room cards to buff, debuff, or just microwave your problems away - Sacrificing Pyre (train) HP for gold or other benefits - Dazing enemies, or even your own units in some edge cases - Farming kills on permascaling weapons to prepare for later fights (it's kind of wild that Slay the Spire 2 features no permascaling, other than HP, I guess?) - As Pyreborne, making cost-benefit decisions about generating eggs, a clan-specific currency I haven't even mentioned Soul Savior, the mode introduced earlier this year that puts every system in the game on steroids.
