Spire of Glory

The game has a clever design that rewards planning. The pool-building mechanic lets you influence , which makes each decision feel meaningful.

There’s definitely a solid roguelite structure here. The mechanics are interesting and the strategy is satisfying

This auto-battler feels interactive than most repositioning your heroes mid-battle adds real decision-making. Combining items and builds to dominate waves was very satisfying.

Honestly, it's a fun concept but no polished roguelike auto battler should allow for the very first "common" battle to wipe your character. It's the start of the game, I have no way to get items or position better, why am I losing on the very first "floor" of the run? And before anyone says "just go to the shop first" you can't do that if you want to hit even one or two treasure rooms before they close. Even with the best strategy and team composition it's easily losable due to poor design. Fun enough game to have in the background but I'd recommend Peglin, Slay the Spire, or Balatro instead... especially for the $7 price point this game has. No updates since 2024 so I assume it's an abandoned game now.

The strategy in this game surprised me. Choosing the right items and managing your team can make a big difference in each run.

28/12/2025 The game has been fully released and not been updated for 16 months, but the game still feels lacking. There's basically no Meta progression, you can't up any stats, you can't tweak the gameplay, you can only tweak the items that show up in a run: You level up your profile and get items for random tiers and can exchange them with the ones already in the same item tier pool, so your legendary pool says 5/5, so there has to be 5 legendary items in the pool no more no less, but they can be 5 of the same item if you only want that one item (if you can get 5, I've not played enough to have more then 2 copies of an item) I honestly don't dislike the idea, but it being the[b] ONLY [/b]progression we get isn't great, at the very least I would like some utility to be unlocked at some point, like being able to ban an item or start with something (more coins, an item, anything). Also the map being crystals in different colors and being ???? until you actually step on one is just unnecessary, it lists the number of different tiles in the top of the screen and only two numbers overlap so you know which color is what type going in if you just check.
