About Rise of the Slime: Prologue

https://store.steampowered.com/app/826740/Rise_of_the_Slime/
Rise of the Slime: Prologue is a free tailored snippet from the full game - a roguelite like no other, mixing deep and tactical deckbuilder gameplay with the chill vibes of a side-scrolling adventure. Fight through a perilous cave full of goblins and try out Core Mutators to add a new dimension of strategy with each playthrough!

Included in the Prologue:

  • Choose your build style with either a normal, acid, or fire deck to start off with
  • Hone your strats with a short tutorial fight
  • Battle your way through perilous caves, with a powerful Orc Grunt lingering ahead
  • Enhance your run with bonuses and upgrades as you progress through the zone!

Develop your own strategies with more than 100 magical cards! Venomize your Slime with acid, unleash its inner-pyromaniac, or arm it with the razor-sharp iron...

Explore a beautiful world of marshy swamplands, bubbling lakes of fire and mystical gardens. A constantly shifting path brings good luck and bad turns: Evade falling rocks and spike pits, visit shops to bolster your deck, and discover secret doors to treasure rooms!

Battle puzzling and formidable foes, from crafty little devils to gargantuan horrors that will push your deckcraft and tactics to their limits!

With gameplay mutators, shifting routes and extensive deck build variations, each playthrough of Rise of the Slime is unique! Your journey doesn't have to be alone... even take a pet or two with you!

"Rise of the Slime: Prologue" is isn't a game at all, it's just an ad for [i]Rise of the Slime[/i]. Talk about store pollution... Misleading marketing like this is an abuse of the Steam storefront and the "free" category. The product this is advertising, [i]Rise of the Slime[/i] is a weak ripoff of Slay the Spire but with the player taking on the role of a dungeon slime... but that's not really relevant, because "Rise of the Slime: Prologue" isn't Rise of the Slime, it's just an advert for it! Incorrectly published adverts are harmful.. they take up visibility that should instead be afforded to ethical developers who do the right thing. And it makes it harder for us to find those ethically made games. The goal here is to get you to spend [b]$15 USD[/b] on [i]Rise of the Slime[/i]. I don't recommend you get suckered, or reward these kinds of shady, deliberately misleading marketing practices. They're harmful to everyone. So this looks like an old 1990's Adobe Flash game that you might play in a web browser, and the problem there is obviously Steam wasn't intended to try compete with Chrome and Firefox. If it can be done in a web browser, it's not even close to a cutting edge PC…

this is a good rougelike but the in between upgrades only apply to the run you get them on so keep that in mind i do not know if that changes in the main game or not but for what this is a deckbuilder its fun

[h1]Before I played Rise of the Slime: Prologue, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]
