You level up, 3 options appear, you pick 1, and then play for another minute until you have to pick 3 again. When it's great, it's fantastic, but as it becomes more pervasive will the charm wear off?MORE PLACES TO FIND USCrubscribe ► https://bit.ly/CrubcastGet the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crubOur Crubcasts are recorded LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/crub_official every Tuesday at 7pm Eastern, with EXCLUSIVE Pre- and Post-ShowsJoin our Discord ► https://crub.org/joinBlueSky ► https://bsky.app/profile/crub.orgCome join our Steam group ► https://steamcommunity.com/groups/crubclubPodcasts are available on Apple, Google, Spotify, and other platforms are available at ► https://crub.orgSHOW NOTESHere's a free post on our Patreon of us checking out The Spell Brigade, an online co-op Survivors game:https://www.patreon.com/posts/checking-out-157909409Some of the games mentioned...The Pick 3 Slop Website:https://pick3slop.com/Gambonanza (they sent us a code, but just linking this because it's a weird name to blind-Google):https://store.steampowered.com/app/3509230/Gambonanza/Dungeon Clawler (also sent us a code, for disclosure):https://store.steampowered.com/app/2356780/Dungeon_Clawler/HUNTERxHUNTER NEWxSURVIVOR:https://hunterhunter-ns.bushimo.jp/en/TODAY'S CRUBCAST HOSTSBrody: https://www.youtube.com/@RACROXCassandra: https://www.youtube.com/@ThatTravGuyChris: https://www.youtube.com/@MykonosFanNicco: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl56kbl3tb-KiGEHT7MUGUgCHAPTERS00:00 Discord Nitro 3 month is pick 305:19 The morphing of the roguelite genre14:27 Slay the Spire 2, too much game, not enough card22:01 "Throw it against the wall and hope it sticks" design29:14 Chris realizes that this entire subgenre is all just Hades35:13 The synergies absolve all 47:34 Should there be a "try all the cool stuff" room?55:46 Favorite scene from a bad piece of media?
