Deck of Haunts is a unique take on the card-based roguelite genre that started spawning after Slay the Spire‘s commercial success. It’s a very addictive game – I found myself losing hours as I played through multiple runs, trying to count down to Day 28. Players who do not like card-based mechanics in their games should stay away, as this game has cards (a lot of them), and a lot of spooky ones at that.

For anyone who are board game fans, Deck of Haunts feels like it takes some of the best mechanics of house building from Betrayal at House on the Hill. For those who are horror fans who always thought they could build a better house, this is absolutely for you. While you may not have marathon hours in this game, you will find yourself wanting to go back and revisit this game over and over to do it better. Be warned, if you are not a roguelike fan or the idea of playing as the house itself doesn’t appeal to you, then this won’t be the game for you.

A fun deck-building reverse horror game with plenty of potential to grow into something even more. With great graphics, a compelling concept, and a soundscape fit for a haunted house event on Halloween, Deck of Haunts delivers an eerie experience. If you enjoy playing the villain, grab Deck of Haunts and let your inner demons run wild. I’m just a tall bearded bald Scotsman who loves games of every type.

Deck of Haunts has a solid foundation, but I feel as though it fails to fully deliver on its own promises. The deckbuilding gameplay is solid, if repetitive, and the game doesn’t do much to capitalize on its unique identity as a haunted house simulator, leaving this reviewer severely disappointed.
