StarVaders from developer Pengonauts is a colourful and action-packed mix of a deck-builder with fast grid-based tactical combat and it's a thoroughly great time. I've never seen another game so smoothly blend these two together. I'm hooked on it.

From the original creative team behind the Hand of Fate series, Hordes of Fate : A Hand of Fate Adventure is a mixture of deck-building and auto-shooting as yet another developer attempts to put their own spin on Vampire Survivor-like action.

We're getting totally spoiled with unique deck-builders lately like Moonsigil Atlas that I really can't wait for. And now Devolver Digital announced they're publishing Shroom and Gloom with a demo up now and it's glorious.

Moonsigil Atlas has a demo out now and it's already shot right up to the top of my wishlist. The idea of fusing a Slay the Spire styled deck-builder with something sort-of Tetris-like is just incredibly slick.

Another strategy game with trains? Sign me up. Break Siege from FojoGames just hit Early Access and looks like it could be another good one.

My new favourite deck-builder? Could well be. Starless Abyss released late in April from Konafa Games and No More Robots blending together the worlds of Eldritch horror and deck-builders in a space strategy theme.

Probably the absolute weirdest deck-builder I've ever played, COMBOLITE is all about repeatedly hitting a rock to score points and activate special combos to score even more points.

There's a lot of dungeon crawlers and deck-builders but Lost For Swords manages to come off a little more unique thanks to the way it shuffles everything together.

Blending together a collectible card game, roguelike, and turn-based strategy game Deathless. Tales of Old Rus looks like a must-have for fans of titles like Slay the Spire. Now it should be a better fit on Steam Deck too.

Now this blending of ideas looks damn cool. Moonsigil Atlas looks like it really warps deckbuilders into something quite unique, and I can't wait to check this one out.

Whatever will developers turn into a deck-builder next? Ludo, apparently. The classic board game has been warped into Ludaro.

Clonizer is a fresh tactical roguelike deck-builder about making and managing clones, and attempting to colonize and take over the universe. It's just launched with Native Linux support.

Fogpiercer is a fresh and interesting take on deckbuilders, with you controlling a train that you build up and upgrade as you go.

Sometimes developers put up blog posts talking about developing their game, but it's not every day you read about how they had to deal with earthquakes, cockroaches and broken bones. And yet, Clumsy Bear Studio still managed to get the Hungry Horrors demo out on Steam.

Following the news I shared yesterday about Monster Train 2 being Steam Deck Verified, they've today revealed the release date as well.

Great news for gamers on the go as Monster Train 2 from Shiny Shoe / Big Fan Games is Steam Deck Verified. It hasn't even released yet so Valve got in early for this one.

Do you love deck-builders? Hungry Horrors is quite an inventive take on the genre where instead of fighting them, you cook for them!

The huge hit deck-builder Monster Train is getting a sequel, with Monster Train 2 getting an announcement and demo in the same day so you can try it early.

Just when you think you've seen it all, along comes Cropdeck. Described by the developer as the "ultimate farming roguelite deckbuilder" and it really looks quite charming.

If you love deckbuilders you may want to take a look at the just launched Deckbuilder Bonanza Humble Bundle as there's a few treats inside.
