The demo started me off in a challenging situation: I was just a Level 1 Knight of Spades, tasked with overcoming the initial region known as Cardunia’s Forests. To succeed, I had to choose wisely among the multiple paths through the area. Similar to Slay the Spire, each segment on the path often led to combat against opponents of different skill levels, culminating in a battle with the zone boss at the end. Encounters marked by question marks presented unexpected events, such as helping a wolf trapped in a snare or simply moving forward.

NBA 2K25, which previously held second place, finished fifth this month.
