Slay the Spire for Positive User Reviews
✓ Love the game but it needs some workI play this all the time when I’m in my PC at home, I love it. This port is good for the most part but I do find that the text is pretty small so if you don’t know the game it would be harder to learn imo. Other than that there is an issue with a loud audio glitch when you return an attack card to your hand, and there is no way of lowering its volume without all sound effects getting quiet. (It’s also the same sound as moving between artifacts, which you do a lot of you want to see that they do) All in all I love the game it’s only a 4 star because of the text size and audio issues.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Beautiful game don’t listen other people!It’s exactly like on console or PC,I enjoy a lot this game ,plenty of cards to collect and it’s worth every penny!.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Love this deck builderAbsolutely love Slay the Spire. It’s got good graphics, better than most. Great for on the go on mobile when you’re bored. Maybe don’t play at work. 😆 A+ Game.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Excellent port with a few nigglesFirst of all, I absolutely love this game and am super happy it’s come to iOS! The few issues I have are mostly small: - As mentioned in other reviews, trying to switch between cards to decide what to play can be buggy and sometimes puts the card into play when trying to read it. - The buttons on the main menu are a little too small for mobile devices. - The ‘confirm’ button when you discard a card overlaps the ‘discard pile’ button - No iCloud support currently, I’d love to be able to try this out in my iPad as well but don’t want to start anew. In summary, the game is fantastic and I would heartily recommend buying it but a few mobile tweaks would be appreciated!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Solid gameplay but needs optimisationAmazing game. Love its mechanics. But it’s clearly a port of a pc game, UI has a little to be desired when using touch mechanics. Still works completely well, and isn’t terrible port as is..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Incredible game. Definitely worth the moneyAbsolutely love this game, it’s so replay-able and incredibly fun. I love getting lots of unique and different artefacts to make my plays feel so overpowered but at the same time the game is very fairly balanced. It’s like a more fun and digital version of the hero realms card game. I would like to see a cloud-save between my iPad and iPhone in the future!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Basically perfectThis is the cheapest version of Slay The Spire, yet it is far from the worst version. My only complaint is the lack of graphics settings to be able to play the game at a higher frame rate. Sadly, this port runs at 30FPS, but that isn’t the worst thing considering it’s a turn-based card game! This is a must buy for anyone who loves great games..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Awesome game, dodgy card selectionAs others have said, this is a fantastic game that we’ve been waiting for for a long time. It’s everything you could want. As others have also said, there’s a bug that makes it very difficult to choose individual cards, particularly the second card from the left in your hand. This generates misplays which can be fatal. Sort it out guys. This is an expensive game and the basic controls should work..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Amazing game, amazing gameplay, great app portKeeping away from five stars for now since the port has a few kinks to get knocked loose. The game itself is great, highly addicting and superb replay-ability (since it’s impossible to play the same game twice), and the majority (if not all) of the game has been refined to its best state. When the iOS port was announced and subsequently released I was ecstatic, and bought it immediately! However, as it’s meant for smaller screens and played with fingers, the port needs, in my opinion, some QoL changes to help the UI feel more friendly. First, many of the options in both the main menu and in other locations with small text are too small to comfortably use, as misclicks are all too often. Second, as others have said before, the card selection mechanics are a bit wonky ; to elaborate, there are multiple times I select a card to read it’s use, but then wish to play a different card. Due to the selected card hovering around my card-hand area, it makes it difficult to select a new card to play (especially with cards that can be played just by placing them on the field; those have a tendency to be played instead of de-selecting). Besides this slight nuisances and the occasional sound glitch, the game is amazing performance-wise for a full PC-to-iOS port! Must buy!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Playable on iPadI enjoyed this on my iPad, game runs good on my relatively old iPad Air 2. It’s fun, clever and addicting. The only things which annoys me is when picking a card from hand I can’t read description sometimes and have to move it above, it’s clearly buggy. I tried single tap, long press and drag and there’s no reliable way to read the card before you play it..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Ignore bad reviewsThis is the greatest game of all time. The more you play it the more depth it has. There are streamers who have played this for tens of thousands of hours and are still improving and learning on every run. The port to mobile may not be perfect but this is an indie game that wasn’t designed for mobile. I’ve done a full run through of all achievements and highest ascension on all characters 2 times on pc and once on phone and the phone experience is just as good once you learn the game. This is a game for someone who wants something offline that they can go back to over and over again. I imagine that I’ll play Slay the Spire on and off for the rest of my life. Just get the game and keep trying. It takes some time to see it but it is so perfectly balanced and challenging. Once you can make it to the highest difficulty you see that the design is absolutely perfect being extremely difficult yet always fair and the choices you make always matter..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Amazing game the port is just okThe game is awesome I can play it for hours on pc however it’s still good on iOS. However there are still some problems such as the text being way to small occasional frame rate issues and crashes but it is fine most of the time. If you already like slay the spire and just want to play it on the go it’s fine albeit a little buggy, if you can I would recommend getting on pc but if this is your only option it’s still a alright port.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Amazingly fun, a few minor tweaks and it will be perfect.This game is dangerously addictive in how much fun it is. My work productivity took a bit of a hit for a few days when I first got it. It has tremendous replayability as every time you play it will be different and you can play around a lot with how you play it. I have a few minor quibbles that would make it better. 1. It is too easy to accidentally select the wrong card when choosing one to upgrade, I’ve been scrolling through and accidentally selected a different one than I wanted repeatedly. 2. It is easy to accidentally play the wrong card as to read the full text you have to tap them to raise them up to full visibility. It’s very easy to accidentally play the card when doing so, although I suspect that it’s less of an issue playing it on a tablet rather than on the iPhone with the difference of screen sizes. 3. The last issue is more of an ask than a bug. I would love it if the game had the functionality to allow you to listen to music, podcasts, or audiobooks while playing. While the music and the sound effects are well done, I like to listen to other things while playing games on my phone and whenever I load StS it automatically stops whatever I’m listening to in favor of the game’s soundtracks. Other than those issues, the game is super fun if you like deck builders and I recommend it without reservation, more than worth the cost..Version: 2.0.11
✓ One of the best strategy rogue-likesI really can’t fault the core game as I’m spending copious of time in it, especially on iPad. But the touch controls really need a few touch ups. I’ll be posting my collection of feedback on the developers Discord once I’ve played a bit more and can be sure it is exhaustive. For example, to scan the cards in your hand and see their effects you have to start dragging your finger OFF the cards to either side and then drag over them. This was only discovered by accident, whereas it would be much more natural to just tap each one without the game thinking you’re trying to drag the card into play. Highly recommended in any case, and I’m looking forwards to the first patch..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Language setting plzCannot change language! It keeps unchanged no matter how many times to reopen the game, no matter which language switch to/ from. Plz fix this!.Version: 2.2.4
✓ I can’t quit youSlay the Spire 4 life.Version: 2.2.3
✓ LOVE the game - just not on iOS!I absolutely love this game. I play primarily on my laptop though as the iOS version strains my eyes so much. It’s hard to read the text. Also the latest update, the touch controls don’t work reliably. I’ve also noticed after I touch the screen the game seems to “remember” that touch until I touch somewhere else. Anyway the game itself - I am obsessed with! I just wish the iPhone app was better as I really love the option to play on the go..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Great premium deck building gameThis is a really good deck building / rogue-like / light RPG fantasy game. Ideal for short, medium and long gaming-sessions (it has that ‘one more go’ quality). The implementation of the cards on iPad is not perfect, and occasionally I will play a card when I was just looking at the description and that can be a bit annoying. Personally I would say the game is barely viable on the iPhone at the moment (and I have a Max phone, so the largest available screen) as you really need to squint at the screen to read the card text. But still a great deck builder 👍.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Great and very addictive gameThis is actually a very good port.. almost identical to pc version.. works great on iPad.. a few minor quirks with using a touch screen but nothing you don’t get used to.. playing this version now more than pc version...Version: 2.0.11
✓ Sank so many hours into this gameI finally hit a20. i play this game so much, having it on my phone is great cause i can just pause and pick up a run anywhere. one of the best games you can get on your phone..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Excellent game but...The game is honestly incredible. The port needs some polish because the controls and layout don't transfer 1 to 1 from pc to ios. Reading a card is difficult and finicky because my finger is always in the way..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Great game but….I LOVE this game I was so excited to find out I could play it on my phone and Ipad rather than the Playstation. Works great on my Ipad but there is a glitch on my phone where I can’t end my turn for the enemy to play theirs…. Im stuck please fix this!!! Otherwise 5 stars ⭐️.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Almost ThereThis game is one of the best out there for its style and mechanics. I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who is into deck builder/roguelite games! That being said, this iOS port feels like some lazy shortcuts were made to quickly get it onto the App Store. Primarily, the way the controls were converted from a mouse cursor to a touchscreen was not done well. The app port seems to handle this with an invisible cursor that misinterprets touching and dragging with the clicking and hovering of a mouse, wherever your finger last touched the screen. This ends up with cards being accidentally played, highlighting status effects and cards when you don’t want to, and selecting things that are not intended. It is normally frustrating if in this game if you play cards in the wrong order and make a miscalculation, but it is infuriating when it isn’t even your intention due to bad controls. The only other issue that seems worthy of noting would be wasted screen real estate. Again, as a direct port, trying to fit an exact copy of the screen from the PC version means everything is tiny and you’ve got to get used to being precise with your finger. This point can be overlooked though, since the game is just so darn fun! If the invisible cursor issue gets fixed, this is easily a 5/5 game to carry around with you at all times!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ New update issueThe new update fixed a lot of stuff but screwed up dragging. Cannot drag straight up, have to select a card and then drag. Also when selecting a card sometimes doesn’t happen on the first try. A little uncomfortable for people who played this game for years..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Only minor gripesThis game is amazing and addicting, and the touch controls are really good these days. The only major gripe I have is that progress isn’t saved between devices. I’d love to be able to play the same game on multiple devices. Please fix this!.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Clunky controls an irritation in an otherwise perfect port.Were the controls fixed this would be 5 stars. (Previously has troubles with crashes but first update fixed this). My “review” is basically just my gripes as thousands of other players have sung this game’s praises far better than I ever could. Well-paced, satisfying and balanced gameplay that is never unfair (even if it mightn’t feel that way at first). Nothing is lost to the move to iOS, game performs amazingly well and looks great. A few small changes away from being the definitive edition. So if you’ve played with touch controls on Switch, nothing has changed, they are still bad. Not quite unplayable, but doesn’t feel remotely good. Even using an Apple Pencil, it’s often very difficult to select the card you want from a large hand. More annoyingly though is trying to deselect a card; you need to drag it back to hand, but drag it too little and it will be played, drag it too far and your finger leaves the touch surface AND the card will stay selected. Finally, progress does not track between devices, which is honestly just lazy in this day and age (devs announced this is coming). StS is an Indie darling with tears of strong sales on the market, I should be left wanting on a feature that’s available on a dozen different competitors that cost a fraction of the price..Version: 2.0.10
✓ Really great game, but port needs some improvementsI had not played this game before the iOS port, and I’m having a blast. Not normally a roguelike fan but it’s easy to keep convincing myself to do just one more run. Top tier deck builder. Mostly this runs very smoothly, but there are two fairly frustrating issues I keep running into: -Being able to view cards before playing them. You tap them and they pop up, but not all the way sometimes. Also sometimes you try to tap away and it’s hard to do so or to select a different card. And sometimes when a new menu pops up a card is already selected. -Menu inconsistency. The text size is a little small but I can live with it as it’s on a phone. What is more jarring is when text spills off the menu and I can’t fully read it. Could be mitigated with a scrolling feature! Additionally, sometimes pop ups about features of a card or potion or relic pop up *over the top of* the actual description of the card or potion. For example, if I get an item that interacts with cursed relics, I might get a pop up over top of that telling me about curses, and there’s no visible way to close that. If these issues were fixed it would be a perfect game!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Annoying message in the top rightI’ve played over 250 hours of this game and the newest update ruined speedrunning it for me. The “Syncing data” in the top right is incredibly annoying and there needs to be an option to disable it in the settings. Otherwise this is my favourite game for my phone and I am incredibly disappointed..Version: 2.2.4
✓ Amazing game but not a perfect portI’m a big fan and have purchased on console before this - plus I’m a huge rogue like deck builder fan too. The game is near perfectly balanced and has no issues. 10/10 The port has a few issues - cards are fiddly to use and hard to unselect. The confirm button is unintuitive on card selection. Everything is in same ratio size wise as the console and pc game so fine for iPad less so for iPhone. I’ve also experienced multiple crashes when playing music and moving on the map screen. One crash actually lost all of my progress, I was pre boss in act 2 and had a good build going. It would be amazing if you could select to keep playing music on load as well, it automatically shuts off and you have to swipe up and hit play again. A bit like it’s 2014! 5/10 for the port Once these bugs and interface issues are Ironed out it’s a 10/10 mobile game..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Buff PlsVery very good game (one of my favorites) but they really should buff shiv decks like in PC. Literally one of the most fun and consistent decks the Silent should have. XD.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Mobile interface needs tweakingAlready love this game and have purchased on PC and Switch. StS is probably the last mobile game I’ll need to purchase. On a phone screen some of the buttons are just that little bit small. With some (hopefully) minor tweaks this could be fixed and it’ll be perfect..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Great game but the text is tiny on a iPhone 13 miniAs expected, the text is tiny in the iPhone 13 mini, however I’m not sure why there isn’t a text size option. Also, when try to tab out of the game by dragging the bottom of the screen, it can be a tad fiddly, and you may play some cards you didn’t mean to play by mistake. On the plus side, I do like how the game saves during each part of a run, so no need to do a run in one sitting, as sometimes the app resets itself, so this would have been incredibly frustrating if it didn’t have a save feature..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Slay the Spire on mobile baby!I’d already played this game to death on console so I was really excited to find out that it was on mobile as well. However, after reading some reviews and posts, I heard that the game had issues with crashing and bad UI, which was concerning enough to make me put off buying it for a while... ...But after getting around to it and playing for 10 hours or so I can safely say that this game runs and plays great! The interface isn’t perfect, so you might have to spend some time making sure you’re selecting the right card, but it’s totally workable. There’s also a setting that helps you to not accidentally click things if you think you might need it. As for the game itself, it’s extremely fun with a bunch of different strategies and possibilities. $10 is totally worth it, must buy!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great PortAmazing port brought this on Xbox,Switch,now iOS. If you’re in to card RPGs games. this is the best pick on IOS. Things I’d like that are missing/would like adding, iCloud support so I can continue with the same save on my ipad as on my phone. A option to confirm selection had a coulple is times tried switch cards to them have it gone into play when didn’t want to. Also when trying to read card details it’s picked the card up for me and played. Maybe a tips/tricks what I should have changed/added on my run to get further..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Wow!!!Been waiting for this to come out on mobile and it's well worth the wait. Perfect!! Love the satisfying sound effects, the graphics are amazing and it's the best solo deck builder you can get on ios. Well done to the team who made this happen on my iPad!!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Update has fixed crash on iPhone 6S PlusThe latest release fixes the bug where the app would load to a black screen on iPhone 6S Plus. I can now enjoy this addictively great game again 🎉.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Request controller supportLove the game, wish there was controller support.Version: 2.2.5
✓ Tiny bit buggy, but this game is incredible.Had this game originally on Steam, but once I saw it was on iOS, I had to have it. I read in many reviews here that people have had issues with bugs and crashes, but I haven’t noticed anything that’s even close to a deal breaker. Sometimes the game won’t boot if my phone is on Low Power mode, but all I have to do is turn off Low Power mode to get it to work. Once the game is running I can turn it right back on, too, and it runs wonderfully. It definitely feels like they’re using a virtual mouse cursor for this port, so moves can be a bit fidgety. But even so, as long as you’re deliberate with how you touch the screen, you shouldn’t run into many issues with that at all. It’s only bothered me once or twice, and I’ve put many, many hours into this game. At the end of the day, I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the Steam version, because this game is just so much better when it’s totally portable. I can just pick up and play anytime, anywhere, and I’m even more hopelessly addicted to it now than ever before!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ My go to game of choiceNever fails to disappoint. No crash issues and variety is plentiful. Amen.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Amazing port of a fantastic gameWas a bit dubious about buying this as a few of the reviews said it was a poor port but this couldn’t be further from the truth. The game runs like an absolute dream on my phone (XR) and now I’m finally able to play one of the best, most addictive games to come out in the last few years any time I want. Highly recommend this game to everyone. I’ve even got my wife, who rarely plays anything, hooked on it!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great game, bad portThis is a great game, however it doesn’t port to iOS very well. Cards are hard to read and can accidentally be played if you’re trying to read them or close the game ( on iPhones with no buttons). I’ve had to restart so many battles because I accidentally played a card..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Could be greatReally fun, but keeps crashing on me every now and then. Also, it’s difficult to just select a card to look at it’s text and then put it back. You end up still having it selected, rather than the other card you wanted, or accidentally playing it..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Amazing game.Ive got over 3000hrs on pc, switch, and mobile. Works flawlessly on iPhone 11 Pro and iPad Pro (2018 model). Desperately needs iCloud save..Version: 2.0.11
✓ This is it!I have been playing Slay the Spire since it was in beta, and it still holds as one of my favorite games, if not my outright favorite. The mobile version is not quite perfect, but the bugs it has don’t affect the quality of the idea or the player’s performance. This is a fantastic medium for the game, given the elegant play style that lends itself to playing on the go. I have full confidence that, given how new the game is to the mobile platform, tweaks to the performance will occur and the game will become almost as streamlined as the full PC version! I highly recommend this game! $10 is an absolute steal for the hours of playtime!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Would be 5 stars but for touch controlsGreat gameplay. Terrific design - except for many annoying touch problems when selecting cards..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Almost ThereGame is great. The port has mostly been fixed and plays well. All we need is a way to play from the same save file on iPad and IPhone. 4/5 but I am going to give a 5 stars because not all game company’s do this. Thank you for fixing up the port and listening to the gamers. Much appreciated..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Fantastic GameI love this game so much, that this is the 3rd platform I have bought it on. I don’t really have any complaints about the port, it works great on my iPad. This is easily one of my favourite games, I’ve been playing since beta. If you like deck building, dungeon crawlers, then this is the game for you!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great game, app needs a bit of work.First off, this game is amazing. If you haven’t already I highly recommend picking this game up on your system of choice (pc, switch, etc.). Even for iOS this game is great, but does need a bit of work. I’m using an iPad Pro and the game feels laggy or a bit choppy most of the time. Seeing as how it’s a strategic card game with 0 need for reactions or quick anything I don’t see this is an issue, more of a slight annoyance. The much bigger issue is with reliability. I find it very difficult to play the card that I want when my hand starts getting larger (noticeably difficult to even select the right card with a hand size of 8+). Even with the issues this version has, StS is easily the best duck building game in the genre, across any platform, and is well worth the 10bucks for iOS. Hopefully there’s a performance fix/update and some changes to make card selection more reliable. Oh yea, one thing I forgot to mention. As with many apps, the sound for this game doesn’t currently work on iPad unless you’re using headphones, just fyi..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Latest Update Fixes Touch Controls AgainThank you for the quick update again since the last one caused an issue with touch controls on my iPhone XR. Those controls are now fixed! I REALLY ENJOY THIS GAME!!!.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Recent update makes control less smoothBeen playing this game for years since beta on pc, awesome game, would be nice if we can have a bit more regular game content updates. been playing on iPhone for quite a while, control was quite smooth until the recent update, was able to just drag and drop to finish a move. It feels like recent update modified a bit around scale, now I’m unable to use multiple cards in one go, occasionally run into issues like selecting wrong card, or unable to release it on the target. The map scale seems ok, but it also adds a bit laggy, personally I prefer smooth game experience, like when the game was first launched. Content + smooth -> good game, features are a bonus but only without breaking current gaming experience. See how hearthstone grew from smoothy vanilla into a big slow fat turtle. Awesome work and very glad to witness the success of this game now being available on multiple platforms!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ AmazingTLDR: Amazing game, great port. About the game: I’ve already put 200 hours into this game. Easily the best single player card game I’ve ever played. Possibly the best rogue-like, too. Extremely addictive and fulfilling game play loop. Suitable for short bursts of gameplay, but it also for long gameplay sessions. So much variety with excellent power-level balance. Aesthetics and sound design are great. My personal ambience preference would be something more nihilistic (like darkest dungeon, another fantastic game), but there is a lot to love here, too. About the port: Port is really good. Controls are great on iPad (not sure about phone). Even with many cards in hand, it is easy to scroll through and select the correct card. Not quite the precision of a mouse, but not far off. The game has never crashed for me, and the save state has never failed ie no lost progress. (The Windows version crashed a few times in the 20 hours I spent on it...) Some small issues that would be nice to be resolved: Doesn't always show upgrade info checkbox when selecting cards. Selecting beta art is finicky. Cancelling potion targeting is also finicky..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Minor GrievancesFirst things first, this game is amazing. Easily one of my favorite cards games (spent quite a bit of time playing on steam) and probably one of, if not the best, card games on iOS. This is probably also one of the best ports to mobile you can possibly find. It's basically a 1:1 recreation of the game, just smaller. However, there are some minor problems as a result of how faithful that recreation is. First one is that there is a clicky sound for certain buttons (menu, etc). It's really scratchy and irritating but that can be mitigated slightly by lowering effects volume. Second issue is that it's kinda of hard to switch cards. On Steam this is no issue, since the mouse has more fine controls and the screen is bigger, but on mobile the hit boxes are way smaller. It's questionable as to why this is an issue, since there's so much real estate on the bottom of the screen..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Please install the 2020 Dec. buffs asapI played this game on steam, and I bought it again on ios just so I can play at any time I want, but can't believe you still didn't put the buffs up yet. It's about half a year past! Come on don't be so lazy like this.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Best deckbuilder roguelite, despite iOS issuesIf you enjoy rogue-lites & deck builders you’ll love this game. I’ve bought StS on every platform to support the devs, & this iOS UI is by far the worst. Here are some tips to make it bearable: (1) you can’t see what an upgraded card will be when selecting, so it’s helpful to pause & use a wiki or Google until you memorize what every card upgrades to. (2) to “alt tab” or close the game, you have to swipe up from the very bottom edge of the screen, & it can be difficult to get the hang of on some iOS hardware. (3) the text is small, so again, until you know the game fairly well, consider pausing & using a wiki as needed..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Great game, Readability could be improvedI’ve put a lot of time into the Switch version of this and I’m sure I’ll put even more into this version! My only complaint is that while on the PC/console versions you can hover over an object/choice to read more about it, on iOS it’s way too easy to select something when you were just trying to read about it. Even if you hold your finger on a choice to “hover” over it, your hand partially blocks the text. I think this could be fixed pretty easily by changing the controls to tap once to highlight/get more info, tap again to select, but I’m no game dev so idk what all goes into it..Version: 2.0.9
✓ A few bugs, to keep it from perfectSo I love this game, new to the deck building genre, but I heard this one was the best. So I bought it right when I saw it drop. Everything good, except for a few bugs, small, but nonetheless need to be fixed. One is text in my the relics, when you have a relic that has a status the effect of the status stays popped up which will block the definition of the relic sometimes leaving you having to guess how it works or what triggers it, also the touch controls are a bit finicky when trying to read the card from your hand, I have iPhone X, and when you want to read what a card does you have to slide it up just a bit till it sticks up, when sometimes with a skill card is confused with playing it and in turn you play the card you wanted to read. This is bothersome, why not just hold the card to read? Other deck builders have that where you hold card and it magnifies it, this would be better honestly. Those 2 things fixed this Is by far a 5 star game, I wanted to give 5 star in Faith but I want to see if you’ll make changes..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Great port, couple of issues keeping it from being fantastic.Loved playing this game on the Switch, so I bought the iOS version as soon as I heard about it. Even at $10, it’s a great value. The game runs well on my iPhone 11; only thing that I don’t like about the game is the ability to view cards—particularly the trouble with trying to add a card to your deck; you don’t have an option to view the upgraded version, like you do on the Switch. That makes decks harder to build, especially for newer players who would like to see what the cards do. There’s also been plenty of times where I try to view a card in an event room and I accidentally select it to add to my deck, as well. Short of that, it’s a good game, and I’d still recommend it..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Best game on the App Store but with new bugsI love this game to bits. My mate and I have a collective 300+ hours playtime. But just the other day I noticed with the new patch the icons on the map and in the main menu have been weirdly large and awkwardly placed. It doesn’t seem intentional. Also when playing cards they hover well above where you touch on the screen and are even harder than before to return to hand without playing them..Version: 2.2.1
✓ The Hype is RealA brilliant single player card game that deserves its universal appreciation from gamers across the multiverse of platforms. This game has inspired so many good and bad copycats but I’m so glad this is finally on mobile. It feels right at home on touchscreen so dust off those climbing boots adventurer - the tower awaits!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Excellent game but for dainty fingersAlthough the option of larger text is pre-ticked in the options, there is not much more you can do to change the fact this game was built for a PC screen. This is an incredible and deep game and in fact as card games go this blows away anything else in the market in terms of its depth, length, art style, everything! But it takes awhile to get a hang on the touch. I am sure one day the developers will perfect it, because it feels like this game would be at its best on a touch screen, but until then, be a little patient and you will have a blast..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Amazing game, mobile port could be betterThis game fits the mobile platform incredibly well even if some aspects of the port from the original PC version isn’t perfect. The games premise is simple and easy to pick up with a huge amount of depth and replayability. The card game basis for the game means that you can easily stop and start a session as you do things throughout the day, lending itself to mobile gaming incredibly well. The random nature of each run, unlockables, four different playable characters and the lore behind the game make this something you can keep coming back to and not easily get bored of. Although I agree with other reviewers that the port could be better, there is nothing gamebreaking and at most it is a minor inconvenience. Other reviewers have also complained about performance issues however I am running this on an iPhone 6 and it runs smoother than some native applications, so I would take those complaints with a grain of salt. Overall, if you are a fan of the PC version or enjoy card games and have yet to pick this up, I could not recommend this game more..Version: 2.0.11
✓ One more turn...I held off buying Slay the Spire for other platforms but had heard a lot of good things. Nothing could prepare me for the addictive gameplay it offers! It’s the very epitome of the one more turn game. Beautifully polished app with great art and runs like a dream even on older devices..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Love it!It’s basically an exact copy of the PC version with all the characters to date (June 2020) including the Watcher. It’s an absolute bargain at £10 with many 100s (1000s ?!) of hours of gameplay to be had as no two runs are ever the same. Just buy it!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Great game but still some bugsPlaying on SE so smaller screen but still just about ok. Lots of dead space so could be more phone friendly. Was crashing when running in low power mode..Version: 2.0.10
✓ What an amazing game!!!I have played this game SO MUCH that I have basically memorized how each enemy, random event, relic, and card works, and yet I still like it because of how random it can be, sometimes there are a huge line of events straight to the boss, sometimes there’s a cluster of elites, but despite this, I don’t often get bored, I know there are people who think this game should just be forgotten and just let to collect dust, but they haven’t seen the Diamond under the coal, this game is absolutely amazing! I first learned about this from a ytbr who plays rouge-likes/lites, puzzle, and strategy games and when I saw this on the App Store, I was thrilled to know that there a companies that partners with companies that only make games compatible for pc and port them to mobile, I like how companies like you try to keep the game as close to the og as possible while also making it comfortable to use on mobile, thank you so much for doing this and I hope you continue to do this..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Dungeon RunDefinitely a fun dungeon running card game, tons of replay ability and lots of fun card combos to choose from! Definitely recommend to anyone on either here or PC.Version: 2.2.1
✓ A true gemSo I never really got into games like these. However, this has quite joy become my favorite game. Hop on and play a few floors if you have a few minutes to spare, or spend 4 hours trying to pass an ascension. The game does get hard, but it’s not the “I hate this game, why can’t I beat it” kind of hard. No pay to win, very well balanced. It can be annoying to spend a while run building a specific deck just to have the last boss be a counter to it. All in all, if you’re into card deck building games, I have a feeling this is a game for you. (Also NO ADS AND NO PAY TO WIN). Shoutout to the developers. Edit: I read some reviews about the interface and controls not being good. Maybe it’s because I’m new to these games, or maybe they updated it, but I find them to be fairly nice. Maybe a 7.5/10 for interface..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Very fun but missing somethingGame itself is 10/10 must-play. Porting can have sone work. i don‘t mind the ios HUD scaling issue. But I would like to be able to have hover/right-click freature here. E.g I can’t exactly hover to the options when picking an event option, or can’t see the upgraded version at card selection screen..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Would be great(er) with controller supportJust that one tiny gripe..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Highly addictiveDo not start this game in that 30min window before bed. In 3 days, I’ve sunk in more than 15 hours and got a sore neck and sore eyes. Excellent game with a few minor irritations (cards are hard to select and deselect on a mobile screen) and one major flaw: installed it on my ipad (hoping a bigger screen would help) only to find that I cannot transfer my progress on my iphone over!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Exceptional gameThis is an exceptional game, and worthy of all the praise it’s reputation carries. It’s so well balanced and there is areal diversity to gameplay based on character and the many relics / powers. The port is far from shoddy, all card games on iOS tend to have some idiosyncratic card selection. This is better than most but maybe not my favourite. I would say the port is great, the game awesome and those who review at 1 star because of the card selection are being just a little dramatic (and maybe a little entitled too) Easily the best £10 on iOS spent in months.Version: 2.0.10
✓ Game crashes Day 2It could have been an easy 5/5 for me. I love StS PC and was looking forward to the iPhone version. Despite the negative reviews about UI and crashes, I still paid $10 (at least it’s cheaper than PC). Day 1 was great. UI indeed needs improvement but I believe the publisher will resolve it sooner rather than later. Day 2, however, was when I tried to launch the app and it just got stuck on the loading screen for 5 secs then crashed. I read the most recent reviews and realize I’m not the only one. Very disappointed. What a great game and what a premature release. The PC game has accumulated enough goodwill for me so I can put up with this. Can’t imagine how someone without that goodwill will feel about paying for $10 and getting treated like this. Sad..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Amazing game, good port.A fantastic deck-building game that’s easy to get into, hard to master but compelling and addictive with that ‘just one more go...’ magic. No run feels exactly alike, and characters with different play styles add to the longevity of this brilliant game. The port does suffer from a few issues, that if addressed in future updates would make this an instant and easy 5 stars: - No cloud save. For a game of this type, playing on multiple iOS devices is significantly undermined by progress not being shared. - Card interaction can be a little fiddly. Tapping a card to read its effects sometimes shows the whole card, sometimes it remains partly obscured by the bottom of the screen. It’s also too easy to accidentally play a card when trying to swipe up to change apps. Great app overall..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Needs haptic feedbackFantastic game.Version: 2.2.5
✓ One of the best games of all timeOver 200 hours so far and every run has been unique. It is very enjoyable to play on an iPad with the Apple Pencil but the mobile version is decent as well. Highly recommend this game..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Almost Perfect - Bad Reviews are OverblownDo NOT listen to reviews saying that this port is bad. If you are a fan of StS on PC you will not be disappointed by the iPad version. Not perfect, but not even close to as bad as many reviews are making it out to be. I avoided buying this for months because of the numerous bad reviews saying that the iOS port was shoddy and full of issues. Maybe the game was bad early on but it’s fantastic right now. 20hr in and I am pleasantly surprised at how good the game feels. Yes, sometimes you may accidentally play a card without meaning to, but I’ve only done it when my had was full or when I was moving too quickly. I can see it being a bit tricky on phone but it’s still been fine for me. If you’re playing on an iPad you won’t have any issues. Anyways, this is the best $10 you can spend on the mobile card game genre. Look no further..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Phenomenal game, bad portI have around 500 hours in slay the spire on steam. it’s my go to time wasting game, between meetings or phone calls i can squeeze a few minutes in during the day, so i was ELATED to see it come to mobile. unfortunately, the gameplay didn’t hold up. the UI, which is clean and well designed on pc, is just too cluttered on mobile. the cards don’t display entirely unless you tap them in a very specific way, and when you’re running a 40-50 card deck that can get annoying. tiny changes like font size would make this my absolute favorite mobile game ever made. one small request - please please please add a vertical mode for people who like to play with one hand (or hide the fact that they’re playing a game at work by holding their phone like a normal person).Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great game, bad performanceI’ve bought this game on Steam, and on my old Pixel and it’s a great game. Just got a new iPhone 13 and again bought this game but am shocked at the frame rate performance on iOS on a new device. The frame rate is so incredibly choppy, like 15 fps. Having played it on other devices with great frame rates makes it almost unplayable on this new phone..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Played 60 hours on Switch. Will play 60 hours on iPad.Just got an iPad recently and was looking for games that use the space. Great game. No issues or glitches. It’s the same experience I had on the switch but with touch controls..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Masterpiece that’s a bit buggy right nowFirst off, I can’t believe this game is finally on my phone. Thank you! If you haven’t sunk your teeth into this addiction, best start. Now, the bad. This game crashes constantly on my Iphone XS, forcing me to restart boss battles over and over sometimes. I would also like to point out that it’s hard to see the text on my cards when they’re hiding at the bottom of the screen. When I tap the cards, they don’t rise from the bottom in any meaningful way to show the cards that makes the game feel as polished as it should. A good example of how to do this right is legends of Runeterra. Still one of my favorite games and when it’s fixed will probably steal my life all over again..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Almost excellentMost of this game is very well crafted and enjoyable, with a sensible difficulty curve and deep mechanics that are satisfying to learn. My only problem is with [SPOILER] the true final boss. I've built all kinds of decks, with every character, using many different core strategies, that absolutely destroy everything before Act 4, and even the Act 4 Elite, then simply fall on their face when confronted with the Heart. If you give me a final boss, I should expect to be able to best it at least once in what is now over 200 attempts. No matter how much you repeat "git gud," the reality is that an enjoyable final challenge is the peak of a long mountain of difficulty that is new and interesting the whole way through, NOT a brick wall of impossibility that dwarfs the rest of the game's learning curve..Version: 2.2.4
✓ What can I say that hasn’t been said already?A fantastic game, and a must buy for any fans of roguelikes, card games and anything in between. However, it’s only 4 stars for me because of the delay and lack of transparency regarding the release, although thankfully they made it premium and not free with IAP..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Pretty flawlessOne of my favourite rogue likes of all time. The port is executed beautifully however i can see issues for phone users on smaller screens. (i use an iphone 8+) Never experienced any issues with the game and overall have had a great time playing..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Don’t buy if you need cloud saveGiving it 5 stars because it doesn’t seem likely to show reviews otherwise. Otherwise, I would have given it a 3 for not making this distinction more clear. The game itself is a 5, but with the execution on iOS without this feature a 3 at best. This game is amazing, but DO NOT BUY IT ON THIS PLATFORM. There is no cloud save. That is, there is no way to transfer your save, and you have to start from scratch if you have another device. If you’re fine with this, make sure you don’t progress too far on the wrong device. You will have to start over at least once at some point in all likelihood, and it takes AGES to grind..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Well designed deck builder gameDiscovered this gem on Xbox gamepass. Happily paid the $10 to be able to play this on the go. Fun, engaging and deep gameplay with lots of replay value. So on to the shortcomings that I hope will be remedied. The most glaring is the game's pausing whatever I happen to be listening to in favor of its own audio. No mobile game should get in the way of the user's audio and many don't. This one does. This can be overcome by unpausing what you were listening to through the control center. This leads to the second issue. If I minimize the game to interact with another app, the game's audio naturally takes over again when I come back to it. If I'm in the middle of a battle, the game audio reintroduces itself with an unnecessarily loud sound effect. On headphones it's an unpleasant experience. God forbid you had been listening to music at a anything more than mid volume. The last issue is why no cloud save? As much as I like the game,I have no interest in unlocking everything on a per device basis. It would be even nicer to start a game on one my phone and continue the same game on my iPad. Oh and the touch controls could be tweaked some. An option to confirm taps for example. Sometimes pop up windows explaining card effects overlapping parts of the card. Overall, well done on the game. It's something to be proud of..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Amazing game but port needs workThe controls for selecting and viewing your cards are very touchy. I often end up playing the wrong card, and it’s very hard to even see your cards sometimes. Also the lack of iCloud save support is very disappointing as you can’t sync your progress between iPhone and iPad..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Great gameReally enjoying this game. Occasionally select the wrong card but other than that pretty much perfect. Lots of replay value as the more experienced you get the more interesting it becomes. Highly recommended and the voice talent did a great job..Version: 2.2.3
✓ GreatOther than the frame rate being a little low, it is still a great port.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Fantastic gameGreat port from PC and I find myself quickly passing time. Just needs some more polish. Very easy to accidentally play cards / choose bad options..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Please include cloud savingAmazing game overall. I loved playing it on my ipad. But You’d expect games this well built in 2020 would support cloud saves... I really wish I could pick up from where I left off on my phone..Version: 2.0.9
✓ I don’t get the hateIt’s a fantastic game and i’ve put in already 20 hours in between 2 weeks, fun, easy to pick up but hard to put down. My girlfriend hates it when i play but it’s because it’s an incredibly thought provoking game. It’s infinite possibilities of synergies with different cards is fantastic. From doing a strength run with the ironclad to pain cards or shivs and poison with the silent to burning cards to get that one card you need to pull off the combo of a lifetime. It has all the aspects of a deck building card game and the portability of a mobile game that makes this such a fun and worth while game for me. UI is a lil funky yes but honestly have playing for a bit i hardly notice/care that it’s weird. all in all 10/10. This is the first time i played the game on mobile so no experience on PC and i play on iphone XS..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Addictive and DeepA great port of a wonderful game. I played for about 100 hours on PC and decided to try it on mobile. Never fails to keep me interested - the short battles are great for mobile, with your mind always looking for card synergy and planning on the build you want. There’s increasing difficulty levels to aim for, and daily challenges with leaderboards to have a bit of variety. It even records stats, which are fun to look at to see your best runs. Haven’t had any performance problems on iPhone 11 - the only downside is that it is difficult to swipe up for the Home Screen due to positioning of the cards. I also think the UI could make better use of screen space, as the port has gone through very little change. I think it’s well worth it and I’ve probably played more on mobile than PC now. Lots of great moments where you truly feel you have ‘broken’ the game with a great combo. 999 block? 1000+ damage? Infinite combos and 99 energy? Other games don’t come close to that feeling..Version: 2.0.11
✓ A great game but the port needs a bit of workI original found this game on PC when it was featured on Xbox Gamepass. It’s a great strategy deck building game. I’m not usually a fan of deck building games in general but the way this game handles deck management works for me and it makes every run unique. There is a ton of replay value. I have two issues that force me to knock this one star 1). There really is now optimization of quality of life improvement put in for the iPhone screen. The text can be small at times and there isn’t an easy way to preview card in your hand(to see what they do) without the chance of accidentally playing one. Also your hand sits on the screen right where the pull up bar is for IOS which leads to accidental playing a card when you want to close the game to do something else or accidentally closing the game window when you mean to play a card. It would be nice to see some improvement on the interface to help with this. 2). This is one of those games where even if you shut the sound off(turn the game volume to zero), it still tells the IOS that it has audio media playing. That means you can’t listen to a podcast or music on a different app while playing. Would be nice if it didn’t do that..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Played over 250 hours on phone, and started on xboxFor a card strategy game its amazing! Easy to play, and understand, difficult to master! The RNG is balanced when building your deck, and even when you fail you just want to instantly try again! And even when you think you’ve completed it, there’s more, an alternative ending? Master ascendancies making each run more and more difficult!.Version: 2.2.5
✓ Really great game. Love it.I recently bought this on the PS4 and loved it. Brilliant for an hours entertainment. But I spent 7 hours on it on first load! I wondered if they’d ported it to iOS and was really happy to see they have. And it’s absolutely the same as the PS4 version. It was £8.99 and worth every penny. I love card based combat games like MTG. This has nothing like the variety of cards in MTG but it has some very interesting ones and lots of ways to use card combinations. Also, love the relics that you find. I’m still finding new ones every so often, despite being 90% through the PS4 version. The relics just keep on coming and some have extremely powerful effects. As do some power cards you find or buy that stay on the table for the whole battle (example “the first card you play each turn is played twice”). Have to say the battles are for the most part very well balanced and seem fair, even the boss fights. There are a few though that I struggle with. There’s a boss that summons two minions, next turn the boss and minions will hit you for over half your maximum hit points. There’s not much likelihood of coming back from that, particularly as if you kill the minions before the boss, he just summons more! But with a bit of good luck on the cards I’ve drawn, I’ve beaten him a couple of times and it was very satisfying. Definitely worth the money..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Amazing game, port needs workFirst, game is brilliant. It defined the genre. Definitely worth the money. Still fun despite problem below. That said, the controls are poor. Dragging sometimes selects mid-drag. It’s hard to click the cards you want in large hands. It’s easy to accidentally play those misclicked cards while you’re trying to fix it. It’s easy to accidentally select options while you’re trying to view what they do. In a game all about smart decisions, poor selection controls are a problem. It should be my fault I lose, not the interface. I’m glad it’s finally out, but these issues need to be fixed. It’s a bad look for Humble and for the developer, who deserve better..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Love itHuge fan, when’s the update coming?.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great game butUI needs some work. When tapping on a card, it often times clips under the bottom of the screen..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great!!! So glad it’s on Mobile definitely worth $10I buy games for mobile on a regular basis. I also end up deleting them and they just stay in my purchase history. This game will forever stay on my phone. Plays good on my iPhone 11. I have heard reviews saying stuff about bugs. I haven’t ran across any yet. I’m running the latest iOS on my device. I have never played the game until it was released on iPhone. I am so so happy to have bought it. My favorite game to date. Well worth the money I would have paid $20 for it. Maybe we see some dlc content or even one year a slay the spire 2 with new card maybe some added characters in future. The game has tons of replay value as well. Thanks for the mobile release I hope the money helps the developers company make a part 2 one year and it releases the same time as a console version. I will buy it for my PS4 pro if it’s available. Thank you developers a fun beautiful work of gaming art that I hope last a lifetime..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Banging.This is the best game on the iPhone. Playing on the iPhone max, works great. The learning curve is hard but so unbelievably rewarding when you win! You can lock your phone, come back 4 hours later and bang… exactly back where you are…. This seems as it should be but so many games can’t handle this..Version: 2.2.3
✓ FlawlessSlay the Spire is a flawlessly designed and executed game. The only reason it didn’t receive 5 stars is because the developers were limited by the game itself. The genre—roguelike deck-builder—is brilliant and very innovative, but I can’t imagine any game of either of these genres receiving a perfect score. These genres, despite being fun and entertaining, lack the freedom to make a game that deserves a perfect score; one that’s not only fun, but exhibits emotion like Last of Us, tells a beautiful story like Half Life 2, or brings people together in some way like Rainbow Six Siege. The developers created Slay the Spire in the best way that anyone possibly could, they were only limited by their genre. The actual gameplay is fantastic. It’s snappy, self-paced, easy to pick up, very fun and casual, and can become as complex as you want, depending on your skill or effort. It has practically infinite replayability, especially with the inclusion of many modifiers and challenges and fascinating synergies. To consumers: it is worth noting that the cards can sometimes be difficult to accurately select on smaller devices. To avoid frustration or accidentally using the wrong cards, I highly recommend playing just a tiny bit slower to make sure you’re using the right cards..Version: 2.0.11
✓ The best card based roguelike!The best card based rogue like ever. It’s not even close. This is the golden standard. It plays well on iOS. Its well worth your time and money..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Game controller support neededGame controller support would push this app over the edge and be perfect.Version: 2.2.3
✓ On the go - Even Better!Slay the spire imo is much better mobile, the drawback however is that the port is not up to the same standard. It would be nice to see some extra features and touch ups go into it over time. I think 60fps / 120hz would be a nice addition!.Version: 2.0.11
✓ I awesome game, needs some tweaks.This is hands down my favorite game. I have about 300 hours into it in Steam. It is absolutely worth it, and is super fun! I have not noticed the slowness some people complain about (to be fair, I did disable particles right off the bat.) Honestly, it runs great on my IPhone 8. The phone doesn’t even heat up, and it drains very little battery. However, I do agree that there NEEDS to be some zoom functionality. There is plenty of room for it, and it is honestly hard to read often times. (Especially if I was a new player and didn’t already know what most cards did.) Amazing game! I’m rating 5/5 because honestly despite the issues I’ve been so hyped, and it runs like a dream. No power drain, no phone heating up. It’s awesome..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Same great game just needs a tweakI absolutely love Slay The Spire and currently have it downloaded on my phone, Xbox, and PC (a bit overkill I know, but I love it). The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is the fact that there is no function that allows you to “focus” on your hand. If the devs could add a feature that pulls your hand up and possibly zoomed in enough to easily read the text on the cards this version would be perfect! For an example of the feature I mentioned, take a look at another game called Pirates Outlaws. That game clearly takes inspiration from STS, however it’s clear that PO was developed for mobile and is accommodating of a smaller screen and understands that players are using their fingers (which can obscure the cards in your hand) to make selections. Overall, all this version is missing are minor fixes to how a player’s hand is interacted with and maybe even zooming in the battles for easier viewing on mobile. I hope the devs see this because I absolutely love the game and just wish it was a little more accessible on mobile..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Updates?I love the game and I would love it even more if it got the updates the pc version has too.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Reporting a bugAfter unlocking beta art I can’t view the art in the compendium. When I try to tick the box it cancels the card preview. Great game tho..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great game and the latest update fixed my main issuesLove this game, a game almost every day. The latest update fixed my main two gripes which was a ridiculous sized UI and cards not deselecting properly. Played this a lot on PC but it’s wayyyy more convenient on an iPad… If you’ve never played slay the spire before, do it! Old review: All the icons are now huge, making it hard to path I reinstalled just in case and all my progress has now gone and I couldn’t enter a new save name because the keyboard doesn’t pop up The card selection interface during battles is offset weirdly so selecting a card feels really shonky Was great, played everyday almost but now….Version: 2.2.3
✓ Quick updateYeah so you guys updated the map and things, which is great. But the end turn button isn’t working for me on my iPhone 8 Plus. Love the game but can’t play it right now..Version: 2.2.2
✓ How do you screw up the controls in a game like this?Edit: upping my review buy one so as to t punish the amazing developers for a subpar port . You do get accustomed to the crappy controls after a while. StS is one of my favorite PC games but playing on iPad is a pita because the card selection controls are so bad. There are countless games where you have to read and select cards and I’ve never once complained about how it was implemented. The first issue is the text is off the screen (which is completely unnecessary on iPad). So you have to tap to bring the card up (usually you just tap hold in games to read a card). But it’s a fine line between whether the game thinks you want to read a card or use it. Sometimes you think you’ve dropped a card and go to play another but play the first card. It’s just janky and sticky. If you read a card that doesn’t require a target and tap to dismiss it, it plays it instead. I’ve played more wrong cards in this game in 5 plays then in every other deck builder combined over my entire life. Fix it for five stars. Also the sound is really tinny and there are some sounds that sound literally like static..Version: 2.2.3
✓ This is a work of artChefs kiss.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Incredible game!Fell in love with this game right away, it’s so addicting! My only complaint is that some of the “?” Rooms, the options are quite small and easy to misclick even with the larger text. Any chance of an extra large text option or different format for those screens? 😅.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Thank you for not giving up support for older devices!Been disappointed in the past when this game could not run on my mini 4 back when it was still relatively new. Thank you for not giving up and making it runnable on older devices!.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Great game - ok portHaving played a bunch on pc thought I’d give the mobile version a try to play whilst in bed. For the most part it’s the same game which is great, hours of fun and a great value The only negative I have is the port, on my iPhone 11 I’m getting fps dips for some reason despite it being a basic game. The text is also very small with finicky controls on the smaller phone screen. This seems like the perfect game for iPad but it’s just alright to play on the phone. Either way great game and definitely worth the price!.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Woo hoo it’s here!When I first saw slay the spire all I could think about was that it needed to be a mobile game. The entire UI works excellently on IPad, however there is definitely some weird crashing problems. When I try to do the daily climb it always crashes before I can even press begin. There has been app drop outs even in the normal mode as well sometimes on the home menu screen. But I’m sure those things will be patched out soon. When they are I’ll gladly give this 5 stars, I’d give it more if I could ive waited for this to be on iPad since it’s pc release so I’m pretty happy already. Let us know when the patches are planned to be rolled out!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Simple and addictiveOne of the best card games you can get on iOS..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Bad controls mar a great gameI love the gameplay, but the controls really make it frustrating. The cards seem to jump around all over the place and I have frequently played the wrong card by mistake as a result. Plus the "skip" button on the card selection screen is exactly where you'd expect the "confirm" button to go. Again, i have pressed it by mistake more than once. Please get someone with better UX design experience to review your UI..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Terrific rogue-like strategy card gameThis is a really terrific port of Slay the Spire. I originally played it on PC and instantly fell in love with it. The rogue-like elements are really innovative and the deck building gets extremely strategic if you want to advance through the hardest endgame challenges. The game is easy to pick up and play whenever, so this makes it perfect for iPhone or iPad. My main gripes that prevented it from being 5-stars were that it’s sometimes difficult to read the cards in your hand on iPhone and that there are no iCloud saves. I really wish iCloud saves were implemented - or even cross-platform saves with PC - since I like to bounce between iPhone and iPad, but my saves are totally separate games. Still, it’s an absolute must play for any fans of strategy games, card games and rogue-likes..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Amazing Game: needs some workI have a couple hundred hours on slay the spire PC so I can’t give this game anything but a 5. It’s an incredibly rewarding card game that actually allows you to get those Yugioh moments where a card engine you built comes all together. The main problem is the phone UI. It seems to just be a copy paste from the regular version with touch screen features. I feel like the cards need to be a lot bigger to make this feel right on mobile. It’s a bit awkward to pull up and read your cards. And there’s a lot of dead space on the screen. I hope some changes come to this version. But otherwise it’s a great time!.Version: 2.0.9
✓ Stunning gameSlay the Spire is an exceptionally well designed game, it has depth but also encourages you to play in small chunks which is terrific and always made it a good candidate for a mobile port. On that, I don’t know how people struggle, the touch controls are superb, smooth, easy to understand, easy to use..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Excellent portI’ve sunk more hours into this game now than any other. On Steam, Switch and honestly it was still an instabuy on here. Port seems excellent. Two thoughts for improvement; 1. Would be good if had iCloud save for iPad/iPhone to share progress. 2. Some of the UI on iPhone is tiny. I wonder if the buttons along the top, and relics maybe, could be slightly increased in size. And even the main menu could do with a fat-finger-friendly redesign. But I mean these are small things. It’s Slay the Spire on your phone. Can’t recommend this game enough..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Surprisingly, Utterly, BrilliantThis game was completely off my radar; when I happened to stumble upon. After staggering over the steep price (and a couple of review videos later), now I can see why the price tag. This game is a gem. A rogue-like with progression elements and perfectly balanced in so many ways. Power or defence, one big hit or defend one more turn to conserve life, risk vs reward, on every step of the way. Sure you get a bad deal in one game, and then come back better in the next! On the deck management side you really need to think about your deck as you go. But this isn’t overwhelming being given the option to only ever add one card at a time; so you can build the deck to suit your play style. I’ve only been playing the game for a short while and I can say HOURS will be sunk into this, (and not a crash in site on iPhone7). Thank you MegaCrit..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Needs to be converted to mobileThe game is great, I’ve put in almost 80 hours of this game on my PC. The mobile version needs to some tweaks though, I’d recommend enlarging everything by 25-50% and having the touch controls work around my finger not on the centre of it.Version: 2.0.11
✓ Great Game!Great port to mobile..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Great on iphone 7, UI could be a bit biggerSame great game experience as any other platform (have the game also on pc and xbox). Small UI on an iphone screen can be a bit fiddly but not a deal breaker Highly recommend.Version: 2.0.10
✓ Really good game but, now what?I really appreciate whoever made this game but i think a little update every few months is a godsend 🙏❤️.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Best card game ever that’s unbalancedIf you are j to card games or rouge lites then this is your ticket to greatness. Sadly the game doesn’t get very balanced when you get into the ladder part of the game. It’s all luck and I hate that fact. When I get to the final boss I just feel every time I need to just get lucky instead of precisely calculating how I build my deck. It’s stupid but you really won’t see this until you are throwing out a bunch of cards per turn and the enemy is doing stupid amounts of damage every turn. This is what you want for sure is that Intensity but I swear it doesn’t matter how I build my deck I just need to get lucky with what they give me and for that I don’t think it’s a perfect game. Almost though..Version: 2.2.3
✓ By a distance the best game on hereA really really good game that’s got a nice learning slope and stays fun for ages once mastered. A really nice concept, well executed with interesting dynamics and very good balancing. The combination of a roguelike with a turn based card game works so well and is especially well suited to mobile gaming. I can’t recommend it highly enough… although be warned: you might find yourself sinking quite a few hours into it! The negative reviews criticising the interface port aren’t wrong, and there’s a few bugs I would appreciate being fixed, but because the game is turn based you can take the time to be careful with the interface while you’re new and once you’ve played it a couple of times you should get used to it fairly easily. I especially like it on the iPad but increasingly play it on my phone too, on the commute..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Please make more!!!!!More please.Version: 2.2.3
