After Brotato addiction I found this gem of a game, right before the sequel announcement it seems. It's such a perfect game for the Deck at least for me - you have time to think, the controls just work and you can just put the game down and continue your run later.

Do yourself a favor and try it out even though your first runs will probably be a disaster. The core game mechanic is so tight and well done it's a pleasure to play loop after loop. 50 hours later I still want to do 'one more run'.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I'm just not a fan of rogue-likes. The game itself is amazingly fun, but it always feels like I'm starting back from square 1

I kinda get you. I too didn't like when I started always with the same starter deck but then it grew on me. When there is no game progression (think for Rogue Legacy etc. permanent upgrades) the progression is you and your game knowledge. Every single run starts the same but evolves to so different each and every time and you make better decisions over the run. I love it.

That's why rougue-lite exists. Each run gets a bit easier, though you start getting new and harder tasks. If it's done well, the repeatability is immense.
