### 5/5 — Great and Fun Card Game Roguelike

*2021-01-06, version 0.981*

This game is a blast. Yes, it's inspired by others in the same genre, but it's still very enjoyable to play. There are so many cards to strategize with and create new decks on each run. No ads, and it's free. In game MTX is totally fair too. The UI could use some tweaking to make certain elements easier to tap on and read, but otherwise I'm enjoying the heck out Royal Booty Quest!

### 5/5 — The fight

*2020-06-16, version 0.981*

Is good

### 5/5 — Slay the spire but mobile

*2020-03-24, version 0.981*

I’m loving it started playing slay the spire and have been looking for a mobile version and this is it. I’m loving it!

### 3/5 — Tacky but entertaining...

*2020-02-11, version 0.978*

While the dev has added a few touches of his own besides a reskin, it's first and foremost an StS clone.

### 5/5 — Bug reports

*2020-01-16, version 0.962*

Still rating 5 because I want this game to get more attention and to get more updates.

Some bugs:
-you don't earn gems from beating act 3!! The game suggests you do, but it doesn't happen.
-when you choose to transform 2 cards in the "partial service" option for one of the events, the deck view pops up for a moment then disappears, not allowing you to transform any cards. The gold is still taken.
-Shaman's "shadowhand" skill does not stack but feels like it should. The text says "play the first attack card twice". Maybe change to "play the first attack card one additional time" and make it so if you have two of those effects up, it will play 3 times rather than 2, etc
-Shaman has an attack card that is stated to increase all doll power by one. When upgraded it says it increases them by 2. It doesn't do this, they are still increased by 1.

### 3/5 — Could use endgame and polish

*2019-08-31, version 0.962*

Fun for a bit, but gets repetitive, especially the endgame or lack thereof.

### 4/5 — Decent idea, poor execution

*2019-06-23, version 0.954*

The descriptions are unclear and UI for forging/resting are not very user friendly. Otherwise, game is very fun

### 3/5 — Cards don’t work

*2019-06-22, version 0.954*

You are about 70 30 with your cards some work and a few don’t or are opposite of what they say” without explanation and the merge section is not user interface friendly

### 5/5 — Very cool

*2019-05-15, version 0.948*

Like having slay the spire on your phone, but includes much more :).  I have killed many hours playing this :).  Thank you to the developer!

**Developer response:** Now uploading new content - Forge. And Coop on the list to be added next.
Those two should split StS and RBQ to two different games.

### 4/5 — Great for Free, Wouldn’t Pay for It

*2019-05-13, version 0.948*

I’m a bit conflicted on this game. I’m a huge fan of Slay the Spire, and Royal Booty Quest is the closest we can get to it in mobile at the moment (read unlicensed knockoff). I love that I can get an experience similar to the default difficulty of StS here, and that the developer updates regularly. I don’t love that the UI, the graphics, the absence of Ascension difficulty, and the amount of bugs leave a lot to be desired. But can I really complain about a free mobile version of one of my favorite games on PC?

If you’re fiending to play StS on mobile (and don’t have a Switch), then this is the best you can get as of May 2019. You can’t beat the price, so its many, many flaws may be forgiven. You at least have to give credit for a guy to develop a free app without ads that even comes close to providing the StS experience.
