Let's Play SpellRogue - Dice Chucking, Card Playin' Roguelike!

well hello and welcome back to the backlog and welcome to spell Rogue this is from the publisher that brings you deep Ro Galactic and it they just have such a good track record of games and I've played through a few one or 12 of these runs and they are absolutely marvelous you're chucking Dice and you're trying to get the the right faces and you're putting them on cards and and modifying the faces to get exactly what you need to so let me just show you um I think my favorite over here is Hazel so let's dive in with the earthbender Hazel and you you unlock new different starting decks of cards it's amazing so let's go with o I like both of these let's do this one all right and here we are it's one of these multifarious you've got to choose your path and then you're stuck doing that thing sort of a thing oh I think we want to come up this way and do oh no we're stuck we only have a choices choices uh these are really great they're great shards you can just grab them and they'll buff things and I have more slots all at once if we go up this way though we'll only get one of these Elite battles but if we go up this way we can get two Elite battles and each one of these has the possibility of dropping another Shard so we're going to do that first thing first we got to get an it's a it's an active ability here turns one into dice enchant a die with glimmer let's get gaia's grasp because that'll give us an extra die we're rolling every turn and we said we're going this way so let's do this so I'm going to show you uh a little bit of the first the first run here and then oh there's my little sapling isn't it great uh and then I'll kind of skip ahead to the end game so you can kind of see what it looks like after you've been playing for a while and this return the die with an extra one value and this allows us to gain four block okay okay he's not going to do any attack to us so we don't need to worry about that but let's buff this so that it's a six and it's even so we can do seven whole damage love it and then we'll put this here so we can do another five damage and then we'll put both of these towards next turn getting a thing and we're going to get problems next turn oh not great not awesome yes we got four block good he's going to do five damage to us so that's not super great but we're probably just going to here let's do this smack them and then buff each of these up to a two so we can do do another six damage there we go done and done so you can see kind of how it works and you go back and forth you grab some rewards and now we get a new spell ooh o so we can dump extra stuff into this socket and eventually roll two fives or sixes fairly good or we can deal damage on odd oh no we can deal X damage hm oh oh we can gain power let's do that one cuz I've got a quest I need to gain power so let's go oh these guys are these guys are great these guys are fun okay so this sampling doesn't stick with me unless if I use it it says it persist between rounds but not if you use it gotcha oh we can deal damage and also get an extra power love to see it okay oh oh it's it's seven whole damage oh well then hold the phone I could use this one to kill that one and then use this one to do just a ton of damage right out right out of the gate now he's going to bury himself and make it harder for me to attack but not that hard yeah yeah let's take him out love it oh yes oh yes and we also get um onetime use potions and this one actually replicate the spell so the very next spell you cast you get to uh attack it twice o oh and I love that when you hover over a keyword it shows you what it means in a popup very handy gain power let's do that one and you can see here's all of the Spells and these two are locked cuz we need we need shards to unlock them what do you got what do you got gain a defense spell gain an attack spell or choose to gain a void spell for money I'm going to save my money for later I like knowing what I'm getting preemptive strike though is really good field returned ice with negative three value not great all right we'll get pre preventive strike yes oh I like preemptive strike all right cool and now we're going to come over here grab ourselves A Shard and now we can use that Shard we can use that Shard to unlock another slot and have even more options or we can buff these ones that we've gotten here to gain extra power or gain lots of block but oh yeah we lose we lose one action point deals less damage but gets more power so the more you use it is more powerful or just 11 damage sheesh no I think what we really want is we want an extra slot this early in the game yeah let's put that there extra options as we go into our first epic fight let's do it oh the one of these guys the carry an Abomination he's going to summon in some people oh I see what it is if you buff it it persists and so it will always roll that ah I got you okay well let's start with a little extra power cuz we're going to want that um and then we could gain block huh or we can get ready to gain block or we can just prepare ourselves for even more damage eventually let's do that yeah yeah Okay cool so now this is ready this is ready cuz when he attacks us yeah he's going to attack oh that was garbage when he attacks us uh he's going to get marked if he's actually actively attacking us which is what we want we want to give him a mark oh man this is utter nonsense um gain I can gain three block from that possibly four block from that or I can put both of these into this and get definitely four block oh I no I can get five block okay so we'll do that we'll get our four block and then we'll do this and we'll get our five block okay so we'll block half of his damage here and next turn he'll be marked and we'll be able to D crud ow okay our first damage oh we can do flask of echo oh oh yes eight can I do eight four 5 6 7 8 yeah okay we can do eight let's level this up and now we can do this and apply another marked and then we can do this and just do tons of damage all at once oh and I should have I should have done the flask of echo so we could do 26 damage oh well oh well life happens and I get marked oh no his little peons will die when he dies so I'm not too terribly chuffed as long as I roll well oh all of that will do TW several damage okay six 78 oh should I do the flask of echo yeah let's do the flask let's just finish this watch this boom and then boom got him no sense drawing the battle out yes okay we get that and we get a branding tonic and a new spell ooh I like this one this one's really good seven damage for just five oh X damage to All Enemies oh no we're taking that and then this we can either get a passive buff gain a Dodge or we can get a Shard which we're totally going to [Music] do oh what is this depleted gain blessing or deal X plus four damage to All Enemies oh that's really good all right let's unlock another slot put this in here all right I'm going to fast forward a little bit and uh I'll see you at the boss battle okay sound good sounds good let's go all right here we go we've been gaining lots of power uh so we're we're working on these unlocks and these unlocked new spells and new uh miraculous things and stuff let's let's hit the boss battle real quick this should be pretty good I like this one this one's nice there are different boss battles at the beginning of each uh at the of each level depending on who you're playing as all right and I want to activate this a bunch of times I can do it twice that'll be great so let's get that and that that going yes and also yes and I'm just going to tank this damage that's what's going on um so I'll gain three block and one block but specifically a blessing this is a new one here I've Got a Blessing now so I get extra bonus faces it'll be great ow all right now he's going to attack and he's going to Shield everybody not if I have anything to say about it so this will do seven damage to everybody this will do six damage to everybody unless I puff it oh you're still alive I feel so sorry for you and this this guy's stunned now he's got this cool ability where he gets stunned occasionally oh so I don't really need the block but I could totally use it be nice if I could kill him can I I can't use this can't use that okay that's not going to do it NOP okay well let's buff the next turn so now if I do another 30 damage he gets stunned again oh can I do another 30 damage I don't think I can do another 30 damage but I can do that for sure I can do that and then I can get some block and a blessing for next turn yeah okay we're going to take a little damage that's fine also I got this if I use fewer than six spells in a turn I get an extra die next turn yes everybody gets better everybody gets better we're doing well we're doing super well he wants to summon people I want him to not huh okay uh for five six 7 8 oh if I do this no okay yeah this this is actually going to affect him yeah cool and now he won't summon them he'll be stunned and he'll have to waste his next turn there we go haha being all alone oh no okay I need to do 40 damage yeah okay so I just need to do 36 uh 34 damage to him um but we want to block so let's level this up to five we'll block that and then I can level this up and do a bunch of damage here all right he's going to be toast next turn but I'm going to take a little damage it's okay it'll be fine blessing makes him go up 10 damage I just need to do 10 more damage like this boom get out of here and now I get a free heal I get some gold I get a new Shard and I get a boss artifact roll one extra die each turn but sixes lose their value roll one extra dice each turn but each turn get too weak or one extra dice each turn but negative one block from spells Ah that's rough that's real rough that's garbage right there I hate that let's do this cuz I like extra Dice and here's a new Scorch desert all right let me kind of fast forward again through here okay so here's here's actually some place that y'all y'all need to see here this is the shop and we can sell spells that we don't particularly want and then we get a whole bunch of money and we can buy stuff that we do want deal one damage to the front enemy for each die rolled this turn that sounds great deal 15 damage to a random enemy on turn one and for each three attack spells cast a single turn apply weak to All Enemies yes yes yes thank you I'll just take all of them all of that's perfect wonderful and then we can roll two five to sixes gain Thorns spello or gain three extra power I can get one of these let's grab that one Perfect all right here's one of my least favorite this is the Hydra and he's got a th000 health and he's got one head so it's nice if you can attack this guy directly and just do damage to this guy cuz if you do enough damage to this guy guy before bringing him back he won't bring back as many but that does mean you're not attacking the thing that's attacking you you're attacking somebody else entirely which I suppose will work uh let's buff this one up again if we can if we can ignore this head Let's ignore this head and just deal direct damage to this guy um it it is going to take longer but you know we might need that all right oh yeah let's do this let's get working on that all right in turn we're going to take the long road all right let's do this that'll give us another 14 block good good this will give us a little extra block and then buff itself so will get us even more block as time goes on and I can buff this twice more to get even more block and now this is this is this is brand new every time you use it it gets better throughout the rest of the activ the rest of the thing here okay we're going to have a big turn here today I have a feeling oh mhm big turn let's start with this get that going now we got 14 so we'll be able to completely block him damage to everybody damage to everybody use this completely do gaia's wrath everybody gets wakened love to see it oh yeah um and then do if I am going to so I I could deal damage to this guy he's only got 71 health so I only have to do 71 Health to him to kill him and then he does 200 damage to this guy but then this guy summons out two heads and they both attack me each turn so we might we might want to kill him just to get a little extra damage going on H I don't know I I kind of want to do 200 damage to this guy first and then start working on it but I I suppose I can do that later oh boy yeah we could just outright kill him let's do that oh great we got two Puck Springers fantastic they're not going to do anything this turn but next turn they're going to be bringing the pain lots of the pain so let's double this up grab some extra that's going to defend me against this guy but not this guy he's going to do eight damage and I'm only going to be able to do so I'll need six more damage defend it against oh I can gain three extra power deal just 15 damage and rroll all dice okay I see what you're doing here game so fun thing if you try to level up a six it gets leveled up itself can I just is it possible to just kill him maybe oh it it'll get close it'll get real close very real close oh my oh that is so close cuz I can do 15 damage to him oh man if ID popped this actually he'd be dead already oh man oh well oh well uh if I do kill him then two more will come out so so maybe we wait an extra turn there okay I took two damage and a pux but look at what I've got going on here okay let's see here I can do seven damage to everybody or I can do 13 damage to somebody specific somebody that I've got in mind you know is that going to kill everybody it's not quite going to kill everybody oh my okay let's do that we're bringing out three now so things are going to get spicy oh again real close to just killing this guy but we'll wait on that ow and yeah so now we need uh at least 6 21 oh M okay let's let's just get all the dice in here get in here um I can just kill this guy kill him bring everybody out good I'm going to just use this cuz I'm planning on doing a bunch of stuff so let's do gaia's wrath here gaia's wrath one more time we'll do an earthquake and another earthquake 200 damage to you okay okay now we just need to kill one of these so if we can kill this one oh oh deal 15 plus damage oh that's so juicy but I have no block oh I don't actually need any block I don't actually need any block that's good so yeah let's do 15 damage to that guy we'll do get a little bit of block and a blessing and um just start working on we might as well at this point oh no I've been weakened slightly can I just kill him directly that would be very sassy of me boom death and destruction everywhere ha oh I love it it's a good game and then I can heal up the two damage that I took grab a shield and if you cast 12 spells you roll an extra die turns 1 three and five you roll an odd value die ooh every odd oh that oh oh man um I think actually I'm going sort of an odd odd dive fives are kind of almost more valuable to me all right here we are this is the last level going on here and you can see things get real spicy I'm going to want to just kind of favor up this side along the along the Route here let me use this Shard oh oh this one's real good two oh oh okay gets rid of extra damage but gives you more ah what's this what's this oh we can use an extra two times increase block by three this combat oh that'll just level up super fast I think honestly I really like that let's do that cuz then very quickly that'll just become the best way to go about things oh no we have we have very much gotten some bad things okay okay so three six uh so I need 12 defense so let's get this going 14 that's more than enough good now let's see about killing something if I do that I can do five damage to everybody or if I level this up to six I can get another power and pick on someone I like it oh they they're getting more Fury oh no when casting a spell gain Fury oh BL that's going to be a problem I'm going to have to just really take them down as quickly as possible that's going to hurt ow oh no I did the math and it didn't work okay then I need to focus on one person at well first things first let's grab this and then we'll oh I don't know can I I I can just do that and just do damage to everybody that seems like the better course of action yep and we'll do that to get a little bit more damage and uh damage negation and uh increase the block here oh vicious nasty mean all right all right we've got lots going on here let's let get some block let's get some gaia's wrath oh if I attack him it's actually attacking him this turn oh interesting all right well let's try and take this guy out oh so close so close here on both of those um if if I get this one up yeah it'll take out both of these guys there we go it's just you buddy it's just you and you are toast let's go all right these ritual pylons are pretty cool you get an extra o plus three value to all dice actually let's go with soul grasp just extra two damage or 20 damage just dropping down on people that's just really good okay omniscience rroll dice gain for Sight that's pretty good oh lose heav Heavenly Acorn what's what's my heavenly Acorn oh want a BL oh I really like my heavenly Acorn I'm sorry I'm going to have to keep that lose savagery and gain gold what savagery lose flowing Mana which one is Flowing Mana I don't see flowing man oh it's a here [Music] probably oh this one to gain omniscience that's fine I'm okay with that okay um let's actually swap that out cuz that might be really handy and we'll see how much we use it I don't know oh no not one of these guys ah I hate these depleting presence all spells only restore one charge each turn oh blar no well let's get foresight so all of these ones that only have one charge ever those are going to be clutch um good almost completely blocking his attack roll me a bunch of dice okay we're just going to cast this on this guy take out 10 of his health and uh do this one like that one that one's really good and we'll do this one yeah see that's that's going to be oh so good and then I guess we'll do this and get a little bit of uh little bit of power creep going on uh I can get this up to a five and cast earthquake or I can get this up to a four and cast Earth Spike and then I'm kind of stuck with a couple of twos cuz Bastion didn't heal oh that's just mean I don't like that boom he's going to nickel and dime me to death so much okay then let's only do the real good ones wait I don't need Bastion so I can let that recharge yeah yeah I could roll odd dice but I think I'll wait on that for next turn we'll just have a big turn next turn when things are looking scary oh 29 damage yeah things are looking scary let's take out that let's roll some even more dice first things first let's get some block going second things second oh 24 and do I have a four I do have a four 37 block buddy oh your face has got to be hurting Bonk and then Bonk and even some Bonk what do you think about Bonk buddy okay so that's nice that's nice so I didn't even lose the die cool Bonk Bonk nothing you mean nothing to me all right let's get our defense up let's actually well might as well use use this just on the off chance we'll throw down this to get 26 more than enough more than enough get him get him I don't like those guys those are my least favorite that I've found so far plus three value to all yes please deal six damage apply one pux o I actually really like killshot because if you kill them with this spout you get an extra Di back so let's grab that one I don't think I'll use any of those so we might as well triple the chance of gaining rare spells and potions from combat or A Shard definitely A Shard please oh just any die it becomes any dye that becomes very powerful oh oh see all of these become very powerful any die or when it's depleted it becomes I get an extra blessing and that actually because of the acorn gets me an extra let's do that that's just a good synchronicity let's go okay this one might be doable it's another oh three times 8 though well let's start with this level this up to six so we can do omniscience it's a two that's not great uh level this up to four so we can dunk both of these let's see 8 plus 8 is 16 + 16 is 24 so I am going to be a bit short of stopping him oh actually I can use this as a stop Gap measure good that'll stop that let's get Thorn's going and in the turn when he attacks me he's going to take damage each time perfect love to see it oh he's going to do vampire damage huh well not if I can help it unstable oh no oh increases it oh oh no that's bad all right well well let's get some defense going that's going to almost block him and then let's totally let's totally level this up we're in we're going to need that and then if we can avoid spawning in un instabilities let's do that good he didn't heal nothing fantastic all right he's going to do another big attack at me I might not actually need this hold on let's gleaming exterior omniscience gaia's wrath gaia's wrath ooh yeah let's cast those just to see what we got yeah yeah [Music] earthquake earthquake extra 13 yeah that's going to be good that's going to be good that'll be more than enough level this up and do another one of these well we almost used everything completely we had two more activities we could have done oh actually we could do this one or this one but no no we're fine we're good we're good we're going to do a bunch of damage to him as he attacks us and take him down we can just kill him with this that'll be so good all right cast omnition I'm trying to level up uh cuz I need to get enough foresight and enough power so I can kill him this turn so I don't even really care if he gets minions cuz we're just going to kill him and if that didn't kill him I've got this over here here done and done ooh gained three foresight um I see I don't like any of those I'll just end up burning them what's this when attacked by an enemy gain Fury ooh or Shard I want The Shard thank you cuz the shards are going to be awesome this would be great but I think that would be awesome let's do that one then this can just be a a slot that we we start with just to kind of mess with things and if we get if we kill two more enemies that are attacking us this trip we'll finish this this and this I need to heal I need to heal all the way up please I oh there's eight left all right here we go are we prepared which one is it it is corruption himself he's going to do 22 attack to us if we're not careful so let's start by plopping this down oh we got a six that's super great we're going to level this up to a four and then I think we want to cuz he's going to do 22 so I want to get another another pile of this so let's definitely get more what what is this corruption cannot lose more than 185 Health this turn oh okay yeah we'll grab that now we're only losing a little bit of Health to this first attack what is this foresight three extra dice we already have one foresight let's start with that wait what is this going to do oh yeah if we deplete this we get another blessing so let's do that for sure wooo woo that worked out really well that that was a really good first turn we did almost 50 damage to him all in one turn I've done more damage but and we prevented him from doing stuff it's good it's good oh look at all the sixes this is great all right let's throw this in there and we get a two okay two is fine he's going to do 19 damage so let's cast that padoodle on him um crud okay then let's do two gu wths we're going to have to throw away a six so we can level this up to a five to get this that's nine not great not super great um huh next extra dice H we're going to have to dump this onto Bastion to gain another seven block yep okay well it's not a great turn but it's not utterly horrible oh we did break this one hey don't be breaking it don't go breaking my heart and then let's get some more dice in here we'll start with this oh actually we don't need that we just need the the the blessing apparently what do you got going on you got a little bit of power he's going to get a bunch of a bunch of defense and he's going to break one of my things and I hate it already let's level this up to a four so it can activate that so now we're getting 13 every time we activate it that's great we'll deplete this completely so we get another blessing drop this down on him oh yeah yeah then we need to um do this and we'll drop this over here see what we get we got a four good and we'll just dump both of those on there cool again we were two dice away from being able to use everything in one turn fantastic oh no my earthquake is broken okay we're just going to plop that on there and then actually this is an unfortunate event but we're only going to be able to do a little bit of eight damage here oh wait no he has a bunch of block never mind we'll be fine he's going to do 27 damage unless I do oh actually let's do that we'll risk it yeah yeah use a regrowth to get an extra die we'll use that to unlock this he's going to do 27 damage I'm going to risk this because I think what's going to happen is I'm going to interrupt his attack I didn't interrupt his attack okay but I can get a whole bunch of defense and then he won't be able to do anything to me so we'll be fine I can't do any attack to him but I can't do any attack to him okay cool well we'll just prepare for the next turn it'll be fine I can get three extra foresight and roll extra dice next turn I think that's kind of what we want might want to do yeah let's do that we'll use that we're going to just roll all the dice fill this whole thing up he's such a big oh no he has leveled up everyone we'll defend there we'll start by getting a we almost have enough just to just to say no just to say no there we go we've got enough just to say no so good uh we'll throw this one down here and hopefully we get something good we got something pretty good we'll get this up to a six so we can gain a bunch of power and then actually I'm going to use this one there we go love to see it you and you and uh then I can't do anything with this one a boo cuz it's even and there's no way to modify that okay well GK we cast this to begin with um 94 damage yeah we might be able to do 94 damage here today you're going to do 28 damage to me like a weakling we'll level this up to get 22 block 22 block Ridiculousness when depleted gets a blessing let's do that even oh oh we're going to hit him we're going to hit him H we actually did almost 100 damage very nice invulnerable he's weak he's low power GK GK get out of here and now he's got 200 more Health he's doing three attacks so that's 30 40 48 he's doing 48 here so we start with the good ones we throw this one over here to get us a four that'll get us almost what we need pop this one up to a four definitely what we need gaia's wrath gaia's wrath and then oh I I could do 19 damage here yeah okay I can't um get all of that gone so I might as well just hit here cuz if I could if I could actually deplete this I'd get Another Blessing but I can't now almost 60 damage that turn oh no he's doing the green things I hate the green things those are garbage things way more defense than I'll need fantastic um yeah let's level this up to a six so we can do this and then I suppose we'll just plunk this down here yeah let let's level that up and then plunk this down here so we got just tons and then he's going to attack well all of these are going to attack and then he's going to attack twice Bob's your uncle and Fanny Fanny's your aunt let's go oh that's garbage here give me better dice thank you uh Let's see we can level this up to here we can level this up to here um we'll level this up so we can do that we'll just dump those in there and then we're stuck with Dy so we can't do anything to but he can't do anything to me goodbye all right your last turn buddy it's your last turn oh s okay we'll do this we'll do this and we'll just kill you that way it'll be great thanks for coming and there we are we've completed it and we haven't leveled up to level four yet oh boo we did get all three of them oh we've got a new one I didn't even know we were track that one fantastic there we are we survived and that is spell Rogue and now we've unlocked some new spells and toms if we gain 25 blessing we can unlock another one of these if we gain 10 critical I don't think I've gained any critical ever then there's artifacts you can find and then I don't even know what is in here cuz I'm not up to level I I I need to play as lapis some more and uh as a as our so th this guy does a whole lot a lot easier to do defense if you will uh and then modifying the dice is really nice this guy he wants low dice he wants tons of dice but he wants them all to be like ones and twos and threes cuz he has uh effects that the countdown timers that do more damage the more dice are required to activate the countdown timer so if you got six dice in there and all are ones to activate a six it's doing like 20 damage all in one really nice I love the feel they've got going on here I love what they're doing with the place and I think you will too and um if you don't you can come back again next time we'll play something different here on the backlog
