I completely suck at this game. I’ve played probably 20 runs and I think the furthest I’ve gotten is ante 7, once. This is gonna be my new Slay the Spire - a game I played for years, but never really cracked. Every time I finish a run, it feels like a total fluke. :p

It's all about combining your Jokers -- in general, you need at least one that gives you chips, one that gives you +mult and one that gives you Xmult.

If the RNG for jokers isn't being kind, I've found it's better to restart in Ante 2-3, rather than wasting time trying to beat it with a poor start.

I play it on and off.  I think I've unlocked virtually all the decks, and have several most of the way up the difficulty.  It's still fun, but didn't have quite the variety for me to want to try and beat the higher difficulties (and the RNG associated with doing so).

Yeah, on the highest difficulty, if you don’t get great jokers in the first ante, it just feels impossible. I’ve had more fun recently trying to get some of the more obscure jokers and unlocking all of the challenges.

I frequently restart on the third ante if the RNG isn't being kind.  I figure its faster to realize that I'm unlikely to win and start over, than waste the time struggling through and losing to the boss on Ante 8.
