A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've been playing a lot of inscryption and while kaycee's mod is fun, it can get a little boring after a while. Is there anything that will scratch that itch? (that's not magic the gathering, too predatory).

Edit: Just bought slay the spire and it is really fun so far. Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.

Nobody's mentioned it yet, so here you go:

Across the Obelisk is like Slay The Spire in some ways, but you always have a party of 4 adventurers and they each have their own seperate decks to represent their differing abilities and classes. Early on it can feel basic, but the more you play the more cards you unlock and the gameplay and deck varieties really deepen and get engaging.

If you want a larger game like Across the Obelisk but less meta progress and more RPG themed I would vouch for Gordian Quest. Haven't played it too much myself but it is pretty neat. Played more Across the Obelisk because of multiplayer and my friends are into it.
