About

Ascension Companion

Features
Read full description

Ascension Companion is an unofficial fan-made reference and planning app for roguelike deck-building card games. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Mega Crit Games. PLAN YOUR RUN Build and tune decks with counts, upgrades (CardName+), Neow's Blessing flows, and Ascension 0–10 so your list matches how you actually play. SYNERGIES & BUILDS Explore character-specific synergy ideas and build direction as you add cards, relics, and potions—so you can spot strong paths before you commit. BROWSE THE GAME Flip through cards, relics, potions, bosses, and events with images and upgrade views where available. Track relics you've found in your collection. RUNS & QUALITY OF LIFE Save runs, revisit history, share deck builds, and use small touches like haptics and a home screen widget to keep the app handy between floors. MAP SCANNER (BETA) Import or capture map screenshots to sketch a route and try different path strategies. Results may not match every device or UI state—treat it as experimental. PRICING • Ironclad and colorless reference use are free. • One-time in-app purchase unlocks Silent, Regent, Necrobinder, and Defect across the app. • Optional "Buy Me a Coffee" consumable tip—never required to use the app. Enjoy the climb — and may your path be ever slightly less painful.
