Inscryption is one of the few games that I've managed to 100% because it's general gameplay loop is that enjoyable. It made me realize that I actually enjoy card games and my issues are more due to how the companies behind them monetize the hell out of them.

Dunno if you ever got around to it, but I hope you'll give Slay The Spire a shot - despite its poor art style. Slay The Spire dunks on Inscryption from a mechanic/gameplay standpoint. Absolutely dunks on it. Inscryption is amazing because of its artistic genius; it's is the epitome of creative brilliance. But gameplaywise, it ain't the best deckbuilding roguelike. @@ak9260

Mike: Uploads an informative video on Roughlike Deckbuilders Zach: “LOOK HOW HARD I CAN PEE!”

Touhou: Lost Branch of Legend and Wildfrost are two I've been playing a lot of lately. Lost Branch of Legend is very much a remix of Slay the Spire, with the same core concepts and some interesting new mechanics. Lots of smart design, and some really fun builds to play with. Wildfrost has you managing a party that you build as you go. The cards you play are important, but so are your party members' abilities and positioning. Again, lots of potential for shenanigans.

Honestly, seeing a Magic: The Gathering roguelike would be awesome

You maybe wanna check out Vault of the Void.

I recommend One Step from Eden. It's a roguelike deck builder, but the gameplay style is Megaman Battlenetwork in nature.

Fights In Tight Spaces is a good one as well. Think Alena of the Arena but a Jason Statham/James Bond sort of aesthetic.

I really like this new format I've never been interested by these card games but your explanations show how entertaining they can be

I love these genre breakdowns!

Your content is so enjoyable to watch

I'm surprised Mike didn't talk about how Beyond the Obelisk has also turned rogue like deck builders on its head by making it Multiplayer.

And surprisingly good multiplayer at that

Just found out about this genre about 2 or 3 months ago and I absolutely love this genre. ^^

I like playing Spire when I don't feel the mood for anything else. Wish Xbox had more games like this. I loved playing yugioh as a kid

Mike the duck Vtuber

I'm loving these "Mike Likes" videos. Hope to see more of em'!

Gotta love this type of content

backpack hero might be a game Mike would enjoy - its much like a roguelike deckbuilder, except with the RE4 inventory system!

Hellcard goat, super fun, and playable with friends

Another good video:)

Ayyyyy! Super excited you decided to give Slay the Spire Downfall a try. I LOVE that game and I feel like not that many people who play Slay the Spire know about Downfall.

The duck has returned!

You might wanna take a look at Across the obelisk. Rougelike deckbuilding with a team of 4. Different classes with a wide variaty of cards available to them specilizations. With the cherry on top: 4 player co-op.

I like this new format.

The only thing that went through my head when I saw this video was "Duckbuilding".

I'm currently enchanted by RogueBook, a game similar to Slay the Spire. However, it has much nicer graphics and you play as two character classes alternately. What I love most about it is exploring spaces on the board made up of hexes and improving cards with gems or with the alchemist. The game is a gem of its genre

Banners of Ruin was a fun deckbuilding roguelike for me.

Probably should check pirate outlaw. You can play as a chicken if you unlock it.

Love the fursona xD

Boy has an icon now

Monster Train is another pretty cool deck builder rogue-like. I'd recommend checking it out

Mike be info boi, Zach be fun boi, and Ann be cool gur. To combine be a fantastic show

Great video! You guys playing Inscryption got me into the game. 😊 I see someone may have gotten some inspiration from Sequelitis for these videos?

I'll like more videos like this. Maybe having Zach doing videos like this too

Hey guys if you never have heard there is this zombie survival deck building rogue lite its called cards of the dead

Ooo, Mike video essays? I won't say no. In fact, I'll say yes. Gimme gimme gimme.

Wildfrost is a tricky bastard of a game, but really good. Overburn's probably my favorite mechanic, though there's lots of fun stuff you can do if you build right. Snoffle + Whomp got me my first win the other day.

Bro i fucking love duck-mike

If you havent played across the obelisk you should try that its amazing and can up to 4 person coop

Mike ! There's a ghost in the shell outfit you might look into for Zach on fallout 4

have you tried wildfrost yet?

I like the duck avatar.

I wonder, which ducks gonna win in a fight, Dafty Duck, MikeBurnFire, Donald Duck or Psyduck?

Nice video

Slay the Spire will always be the king. GOAT. No real competition. Game ist just too good. Balanced better than pvp cardgames, clean and streamlined and so much depth and replayability that you can play it forever and always come back to.

I like this video

Hey can we have you and Zach play Fable Anniversary? It would be fun to see you try the ridiculous stuff in that game.

Darkest dungeons seems to fit in the mold of this genre to. I'm sure you heard of it, but I'll hope that you have enough knowledge about the game to know how folded lungs 5x over, and heart flooded with blood with how hard it may be if a newbie. I'm no way expecting you to show it on the channel, but I'd like to know how interested you are in the game. Have a nice day Mister.

Mike Duck Fire

To all inscription fans it’s now on Xbox enjoy

Trying Hearthstone´s single player modes (Dungeon Run/Monster Hunt) might be worth it. Probubly not as deep as Slay the Spire but they are free and great fun.

Anyone recommends dicey dungeons for an new player in the genre who wants an easygoing experience?

I blame caravan

Just had a video request pop in my mind because of a trend with current and former soldiers, so yea, creepy military stories?

There was a bunch of comments from the last video essay that still occupied my mind: Why is Mike a duck? I only just realized now that Mike has had a duck profile pic. For some reason, my mind just never acknowledged that.

Not quite as roguelike as the others but Library of Ruina is an amazing deckbuilding stratagy game

Just gunna ask, ever play the megaman battle network games? Its a deck building rpg chess game with combos and niche esports side thats most likely to brkng back new tournaments. Just letten ya know...cough cough

"New genre"? It's at _least_ a handful years old.

I have 92 hours in slay the spire it's great

I forgot mikes avatars a duck

Dear god now mike is a PNG tuber lord save us

For some reason, rng from playing card games don't seem to infuriate me as much as other rng like dodge and enemy reinforcement

Maybe you can try one step from eden

where peglin, rogue like deck building peggle

I love Inscryption. For me I like it when games allow you to be OP. If you like Roguelikes Binding of Issiac and Inscryption I would recommend Noita. Be warned it's kind of hard.

With a TCG you make a deck prior to playing. With a deck builder, you build your deck as you progress through the game. The closest thing TCG has to this concept are 'solitaire' decks where you continuously draw more cards during 1 turn. Which people hate competitively since it's 'non interactive'. VS a Deck Builder where doing long combos to extend your turn is the whole fun of the game.

@@vj7248 kinda... TBH I forgor what part of the video I was responding to and that would change my response to you.. but my point is that the reason things like deck building games don't exist IRL is because of child gambling laws... in fact the afore mentioned Magic the gathering used to have a 'ante' rule where after you shuffled but before you drew you would turn over the top card of your deck and gamble it away... TBH I wouldn't be surprised if the genre of deck building games is at least loosely based off that...

Inscryption sort of stands out when it wants you to complete the story, but Kaycee mod does ramp it up int an annoying rogue like where you need to get lucky. I do enjoy these games and hope to see more get tested out, but like any card game would like the developers to work on more expansions like new characters or occasionally tweak the cards that are there.

If anyone is interested in a real deckbuilding roguelike where you fight too many opponents at the same time, I would reccoment Fights in Tight Spaces, you have to position yourself and it really sells the fantasy of a resourceful dude fighting may people at the same time.
