How many cards do you start with in Slay the Spire?

Is there an event after the first section of the game that includes the jailer?

Yes, the jailer event is the only one that occurs after the first section in the current version. However, a more recent version available on Patreon adds different events to acts 2 and 3.

Is there any content involving intimate scenes or adult themes?

There are very few such scenes, mostly limited to implied situations and loss scenarios. One scene features a mechanical dog with suggestive elements, but it is not explicit.

What happens when you win the game?

Upon winning the game, there's no way to see your deck or gear at the end for bragging rights.

Are there any event bugs or exploits in the game?

There are several known issues: transforming into a catgirl no longer converts shots into scratches; the sauna event can be exploited to upgrade entire decks for free if you have locked cards; and an event that adds pure or impure to a card is broken. Additionally, there's uncertainty about whether accepting Alraune incubation offers any benefits over free card upgrades.

Can enemies be turned into bonuses?

Using the puppet item can turn enemies into bonuses, potentially filling more columns than allowed and making it hard to see all bonuses. Additional rows might be needed for better visibility.

Can kitsune battles with crystalise or priest robe result in a draw?

Yes, using crystalise or priest robe in kitsune battles can lock the game in a draw that you have to give up.

Are certain items only available for the first act of the game?

Certain items are only available during the first act. Once you defeat a boss and progress to acts 2 or 3, attempting to use these items will result in your character dying.

General Tips

• Maintain a small deck size to cycle through cards more efficiently.
• Save money to visit shops, even if there are no immediate upgrades available, as card removal is valuable.
• Deal at least 25 damage per turn to clear fights by turn 8.

Boss Strategies

• For the Sand Slime, aim for a smaller deck size and use boons like Remove 2 Cards or Transform 2 Cards.
• Use items that add +1 Energy from boss fights to enhance your setup against challenging bosses.

Item Usage

• Items such as the Cleric Robe, Latex Collar, and Dog Buttplug can significantly boost your performance.
• The Bondage Rope generates extra arousals but restricts map paths. Use it strategically to balance benefits and limitations.
• The fire girl can reach a high HP total of 275 without exploiting the latex power to gain maximum HP each time health is lost.
• Armor reduces your max HP by 3 but heals you at the end of battles, making it useful for sustained combat.
• The sad mask costs 10 HP initially but grants 8 max HP, providing a significant early-game boost.
• Earrings provide an additional 3 max HP, enhancing survivability in later stages.
• Latex bodygear offers 1 maximum HP gain each time health is lost, aiding recovery during intense battles.

Deck Cycling

• Utilize cards like Ignore and Guard to cycle through your deck efficiently, aiming for key cards such as Lucky Shot.
• Pop all upgraded Flash Fires early in the fight for effective card cycling.

Combat Mechanics

• Counterburn can trigger on self-inflicted damage, leading to stacks of burn that bypass shields. Be cautious when using cards like Denied.
• Shields are removed after burn triggers, so manage your deck and card usage carefully.

Boss Specifics

• The Collector can be particularly punishing by locking down your deck, destroying valuable clothing, and increasing card costs. Winning the fight might still result in significant losses.
• Strive to maintain key effects such as energy, card draw, passive shields, and composure during challenging boss fights.
