I bought it (again) to have it in my pocket. (The steam deck doesn't quite fit). Absolutely worth it 100%.

If we could mod the phone version I would never need another.

What kind of mods are you talking about exactly? I haven't gotten to the final stage of any of the decks yet so I haven't explored those options.

Fair, I haven't beaten all of them myself, but when I do, I'll need those mods. They made Binding of Isaac so much fun after beating that, too.

I got it on Steam because I saw that there's a tool someone built to create an APK of your Steam game. Worked flawlessly and now I'm playing too much of it on both my computer AND my phone

Can you cross progress once you've made the APK?

bagelberger@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

There's a way to bring over Steam saves to the APK when you make it, but no cross progression unfortunately.

Slay the Spire is already available for android. And Balatro too.

I got it on steam so I could play it on my r36s handheld haha

Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 13 pts · 1y

It's a good fuckin game.

DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 1y

Honestly, it's like Stardew Valley. It's so good, I'll get a version for my toaster if they release one.

Thanks for the tip. I have never heard of this game before. It's so refreshing with a game that isn't optimized to squeeze every last drop from my wallet. I'll gladly pay up front for a good game

It’s amazing, but also too easy to lose 4 hours playing in what feels like minutes

Yup. They took my money again as well.

I bought the hype. I don't think it meets it but it is a good game that I will keep installed.

sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 1y

Games never meet the hype, which is why I generally try to avoid hype.
