Slay the Spire 2, despite being a "phenomenal game and worthy successor," faces a divided Steam review landscape due to review-bombing incidents. With filters on, the game boasts a 94% Very Positive rating, but this drops to 56% Mixed without. The community's love for the game shines through when ignoring bombed reviews, albeit with some criticizing its difficulty.
Slay the Spire 2 suffered a severe review bomb on Steam, yet surprisingly, its sales remained largely unaffected. According to a Steam expert, "in any other case you would say this game is dead" based on the review bomb's severity. However, the game's sales tell a different story, highlighting the complex relationship between user reviews and purchasing decisions.
