It's better than Slay The Spire, it was our best card game of 2020, and now the sequel has a proper release date

I gotta be honest, Slay The Spire never quite sunk its claws in me the way it did for other people. That's no criticism—the game's great—I just lack whatever piece of brain chemistry it is that makes some people while away weeks at a time on run after run after run.

Which is weird, because I very much do have whatever inner secret sickness it is that makes people lose vast amounts of would-be productive time to runs of Monster Train, another deckbuilding roguelike (but this time there's a train in it).
