With this update, Slay the Spire brings back that late-night addictive goodness.While PC players have been able to enjoy the fourth character class in Slay the Spire for a few months now, console players have been patiently waiting for the patch to drop on their platform. After 25 attempts, I’ve yet to beat the game so it’s once again giving me a run for my money. I’ve found this new character much harder to play than the first three.
But as always, building an efficient deck of cards is key to beating the Spire. Entering Wrath is risky but crucial to beating tougher enemies. More than with the first three characters, playing the Watcher requires careful timing. These let you look at cards on top of your draw pile (in random order) and potentially discard cards you don’t need. The Watcher’s deck has quite a number of Retain cards, allowing you to save up important moves for the right opportunity. That might sound rather measly but Miracle is also a “ Retain” card, which means that if you don’t use it, the card remains in your hand instead of being discarded end-turn. Miracle grants a single, one-time Energy point. Called Pure Water, it adds a card called “Miracle” to your hand at the start of every combat. Like the other characters, the Watcher begins with a unique relic.
To enter this short-lived but powerful state of Divinity, the Watcher must accumulate 10 Mantra points, which can be gained through cards and relics. Lastly, in the Divinity stance, the Watcher deals triple damage and gains 3 Energy however, she automatically exits this stance at the end of a turn. Energy points (or what many games would call “action points”) are the game’s most important resource, the currency that enables cards to be played. In Calm stance, everything’s normal but the Watcher gains 2 Energy upon exiting Calm. But I eventually found it more beneficial to risk the double damage, in order to kill enemies faster. Being a vulnerable state, Wrath is something I used to avoid a lot in my early runs. This means you’ll want to carefully time the Watcher’s entering into Wrath. When the Watcher is in Wrath stance, her attacks deal double damage, but she also receives double damage. The new mechanic this character introduces is that cards cause her to switch between the following “stances”: Wrath, Calm, and Divinity.

This free 2.0 update comes not only with the Watcher but also with new relics, potions, and cards, plus various fixes. The Watcher’s unique cards have a religious/spiritual theme and titles like “Judgment,” “Devotion,” “Meditate,” and so on. The game update (version 2.0) which ushers in this fourth character, called The Watcher, was released in March 2020 on the Nintendo Switch. With each character possessing their own unique deck of cards, a new kid on the block means a whole new gameplay experience. I reviewed the game a year ago, and rated it Two Thumbs Up. When I caught wind of a fourth character being developed for Slay the Spire, one of the 2019’s best roguelikes, I couldn’t wait to replay it.
