Slay the Spire puts players in the role of one of three characters, each with a set of unique decks used to take down many different classes of dungeon-dwelling enemies. With over two-hundred cards, over one-hundred discoverable items, and three different enemy classes with varying skills and rewards for beating them, this unique title mashes dungeon-crawling and card games into one jam-packed title.

The good news is, according to Mega Crit, that the time-frame between announcement and release will not be very long. So it is possible that we’ll be seeing a Switch release of Slay the Spire sooner rather than later. Currently, the game is available on Windows, MacOS, and Linux operating systems and sports glowing reviews.
