THE FUSE

I deliberately hadn’t been looking too closely at Slay the Spire 2 ahead of yesterday’s Early Access launch. Despite being spectacularly atrocious at it, I really love the first game, as much for the fun it’s brought me as for the joy I’ve seen it bring others. It’s a game that feels like it should be niche, and yet is so broadly adored, I suspect because it’s just so inherently a good game. It turns out that Slay the Spire 2 is quite similar, and I’m just delighted it is. Because this is an even better game.
