Following on from one of the most acclaimed roguelikes of all time, naturally, Slay the Spire 2 is as hotly anticipated as indie games go, but developer Mega Crit is using the opportunity to shout out fellow games in the genre, from sales behemoths to overlooked gems that deserve more love.
During a new Reddit AMA with developers from Mega Crit, one fan mentioned that the original Slay the Spire is often cited as the best in its genre and asked if the team was inspired by any other roguelikes. Studio co-founder Casey Yano says it's "kind of unfortunate that as the designers we aren't able to experience Slay the Spire the same way but we're flattered that people think it's great."
