Slay the Spire is the Roguelike deckbuilder that started it all. But what if you want something more? Something bigger, bolder, and better?
Something that takes the Slay the Spire formula and adds a whole new layer of depth, strategy, and style? Well, look no further than Beneath Oresa, the new game from Broken Spear Inc. that is ready to challenge the king.
In the context of deck builders, Beneath Oresa is a 4GB behemoth that packs a punch with its stunning graphics, cinematic animations, and immersive environments. You'll explore the dark and mysterious depths of Oresa, a medieval-futuristic city full of secrets and dangers. You'll see your characters run, jump, climb, and fight their way through sewers, dungeons, factories, and more.
You'll witness every blow, every dodge, every counter-attack in glorious detail. You'll be on the edge of your seat as you face off against hordes of enemies, from lowly rats to towering bosses.
But Beneath Oresa is not all looks and no content. It's also a smart and strategic game that will test your skills and your wits. You'll have to choose two characters for your run, each with their own unique cards and abilities. You'll have to manage your Companionship level with your partner, which affects their passive buffs and support cards. You'll have to master the two fighting spaces, near and far, and use them to your advantage with positional attacks and movements. You'll need to time your counter-attacks wisely, which can block the strongest melee attack of the round and deliver a devastating blow in return.
Beneath Oresa also offers some clever twists on the classic Slay the Spire mechanics. Instead of having separate stops for resting, upgrading, shopping, and events, Beneath Oresa combines them into one-stop shops that offer multiple options and trade-offs. You'll have to weigh the benefits and costs of each choice carefully, as they can make or break your run. You'll also encounter more challenging and varied battles as you progress deeper into Oresa. You'll face enemies with hundreds of hitpoints that can unleash powerful attacks. You'll deal with reinforcements that can swarm you with waves of foes. You'll need to adapt your strategy and your deck accordingly. Beneath Oresa is not a game for the faint of heart. It's a game for those who want more from their Roguelike deckbuilders. It's a game that builds on the foundations of Slay the Spire and takes them to new heights. It's a game that is still in early access, but already shows great promise and potential.
Ultimately it's a game that you should definitely check out if you're an experienced deckbuilder player who is looking for a fresh and exciting challenge.
