Deck Beasts | I Won... But I Have No Idea Why | Let's Play the Demo Can the right strategy carry your team to victory? Deck Beasts is a roguelike creature-collecting autobattler where you'll build teams of unique monsters, collect powerful relics, and experiment with hundreds of abilities in search of the perfect combination. I went into this demo with high hopes. I love the pixel art style, the creature designs are fantastic, and I've always wanted to be good at games like this. Unfortunately... I'm not. I had a lot of fun, but I'm also very new to the autobattler genre, and I quickly realized there are probably some fundamentals that experienced players understand instinctively—things the developers may assume everyone already knows. Questions kept popping into my head: Who attacks first? Where's the turn order? Does the order of abilities on the action bar matter? I wasn't always sure if I was making smart decisions or just getting lucky. At first, everything seemed to click. My opening team steamrolled anyone who stood in the way, and I cleared the first Warp without much trouble. Then I built a second team... and they were wiped out almost immediately. It was embarrassing. From there, the runs became a roller coaster of occasional success followed by spectacular failure, and before long I realized I wasn't entirely sure why I was winning or losing. That's not necessarily a criticism of the game. In fact, it's one of the things that makes me want to keep playing. There's an impressive amount of variety between the Beasts, both in their abilities and their visual designs, and I can absolutely see Deck Beasts becoming one of those "just one more run" games once you start understanding the systems and discovering powerful synergies. Right now, though, I don't feel competitive—I just feel lucky whenever I manage to win. If you're already an autobattler veteran, I'd love to hear your advice. What beginner mistakes did you notice me making, and what should I focus on learning first? #DeckBeasts #SteamDemo #AutoBattler #Roguelike #MonsterCollector #DeckBuilder #IndieGames #FirstImpressions #GamesWithGalt
