Good piece! But not sure why coin crypt would be considered the first roguelike deckbuilder when Dream Quest was both before it, as well as much more influential on StS etc.?
That may well be the case — my initial research has Coin Crypt released in 2013 and Dream Quest in 2014, but I’m open to being wrong about that. As for being much more influential on Slay the Spire, I’m not overly worried about that piece of the puzzle, as I’m more interested in the earlier board games that paved the way mechanically.
