Praise Dead

I don't know man. There's some cool stuff, but it's buggy. And one of the random events literally destroyed all my zombies and gear just 3 levels before the final boss. If I hadn't been already crushing it and able to buy back hundreds of random organs, it would have been game over. It's also a pain in the butt to have random spells per day that dwindle down to just 3. It feels like I have a lot of complaints, but there's a cool idea of a game here... But once you get a few basic relics to kind of start making some kind of engine, there's not really any kind of "build" you can work towards afterward. Eventually you just kinda have everything and just do micro-optimizations for 14 days in a row, basically waiting for the game to end itself.

Actually difficult to win, but still possible to snowball if you get lucky. Took me 3 hours to get my first win and seems like I'm not even 1% of the way through the meta progression, feels very balanced.

I'll be damned, the developer fixed the game. I would describe Praise Dead as Slay the Spire if it had an auto battler instead of cards. The challenge is in resource and zombie management. Praise Dead isn't the deepest game in the world. It can be kinda easy. And it can be an enjoyable time waster. Enemy design is kinda weird. Rather surprised the game sat in buggy, broken state for years only for the developer to swoop in and fix every common game breaking bug about a week after I left a negative review. I bought it on sale for pocket change. I would say it's worth it at the regular asking price of $5.

I can't progress in the game any longer, I have beaten diff 0 multiple times now but it just won't register and allow me to play on harder diffs or even use the other characters. tis truly sad since I enjoyed the game

Fun and quick little game with a little of strategy and easily can become a time sink. I spent the first few rituals having a hard time, but then it clicked when I finally beat the first ritual and went into the endless mode. By halfway, I will say, the loop was pretty solidified and offered little more challenge, but I decided to finish the whole game out to wrap it up in a little bow. I was surprised it was on sale for, I think, .49$ which is, honestly a steal. I didn't think much of it, and shelved it for a week as I finished another game, and thought, eh, might as well try it. Worth it, honestly.

incredibly buggy...
