Eric Farraro, developer and designer of the mobile roguelike deck builder Meteorfall, joins us to offer some perspective on Slay the Spire, a deep roguelike deck builder that’s recently come to Nintendo Switch. We discuss some of the ideas and mechanics that make Slay the Spire unique, and talk about how it’s influencing Eric’s own work on his next game; Meteorfall: Krumit’s Tale.
