Coin Crypt is a roguelike, like FTL or The Binding Of Isaac. It's a game where you have to start all over again if you die. But Coin Crypt has an original concept for its battles; the loot you find, coins in this case, is also used to battle your foes. Coins can have different properties, like healing for 5 or 10 points, or doing 10 points of damage while taking 5 of your hitpoints. A fun concept that keeps things fresh. If you run out of coins it's game over. You have to be careful which coins you want to use and which ones you want to save as loot. Of course, all loot is randomized and there are several floors to go through. It's not a big game, I guess one can complete the game in roughly 30 minutes, if you're lucky enough. If you're not lucky enough, you'll at least earn experience points that can be used to unlock new classes that might you help during future playthroughs. The graphics are simple and all enemies are basically just textured rectangles, but it's cute to look at. The sounds didn't make much of an impression on me, but I guess it fits the game as far as style is concerned. Recommended for it's original take on the genre. Let's hope more stuff gets added in a later stage, because right now there's not really enough content.

EDIT: I got super tired of reading so many complaints of people saying that the game is too hard and confusing, so I wrote a [url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=490998275]guide for beginners. This should clear up any questions you might have about the game, and if you still don't like it afterwards, then I guess it isn't for you. This review is also specifically focused on the base game and does not include any info on the DLC expansion. Also, this was Slay the Spire before Slay the Spire . --- This is a near-perfect lovechild of tabletop board games and roguelikes. Coin Crypt is a procedurally-generated roguelike adventure game. What makes this game unique is its deckbuilding mechanics and deep, strategic gameplay. You play as a lootmancer, one of 20 characters who hunt for treasure in the mysterious "Coin Crypts". The coins found within treasure chests are used for both battling and bartering, but once they're used they're gone forever. With 201 different coins to find and use, the game offers a rich variety of play. Coin Crypt separates itself from other games in its genre through a combination of strategy and pressure. The combat system runs on an active time battle format rather than a strict turn-based system. Each coin has its own cast time, and if you take too long to decide your play, your opponent will get the better of you. Because you have to think on your feet before your opponent makes their play, the game keeps things simple and fast, while leaving room for other strategies, such as actually letting your opponent go first, stacking buffs, and more. There's always the looming danger of running out of coins, which immediately ends your run. Because of this, you must keep your deck lean and efficient, but also mindful of the coins you spend as they'll disappear once used. To balance this, you can donate unneeded coins to Deities, the Loot Gods, who offer specific coins that suit different styles of play such as stalling, pure offense, defensive, and more. Other than the wide variety of coins, there's also a good amount of different enemies who challenge you with specific playstyles. Some will steal your coins, poison you, force you to drop your coins, and more. Each floor has an optional miniboss that award you with items that give positive modifiers to your character. Once you've beaten 9 levels, you'll have to fight a random boss to win your run. As with most roguelikes, Coin Crypt has permadeath. Upon ending a run, you can use the money you accumulated to unlock different character classes with different modifiers that can change the way you play. Every class has to be played in their own unique way, and there’s no one method that will work for any class. This game offers great replayability, a surprising amount of depth, and good fun if you're looking for a more strategic roguelike/RPG. Be warned; it is a difficult game with a moderate learning curve. One of its biggest issues is that new players will have a hard time learning the mechanics. There is no tutorial, and the game can feel very confusing at first. It will take a lot of subsequent playthroughs to slowly understand the strategies and skills needed. Some players may get turned off by the game's almost childish art. Personally, I feel like it suits the game, giving it an almost boardgame-like aesthetic, which suits its gameplay. Some aspects may feel unbalanced, such as quick enemies or unfair coins, and there are still some bugs that have ruined some user's savefiles. Playing the game with a gamepad may feel awkward, but it plays smoothly with keyboard and mouse. Some classes are more difficult to play than others, although that's typical for most roguelikes. However, the developer is still in touch with the community and has steadily been working out the game's kinks. All in all, Coin Crypt is definitely worth the $10.00 purchase. TL; DR: One of the most underrated roguelikes on Steam. Must-get if you're a fan of collectible card games and roguelikes/RPGs.

Can someone explain to me why people dislike this title? The combat system is a bit werid because it's not the standard used by many RPG titles. That's because it's not an RPG (Ignore that giant confusing steam Tag.), it's a single player card game where the "cards" are replaced by "coins." The combat system is easy enough for a half blind two year old stright out of the special ed classroom to figure out. (No offense to anyone with a disability. You're more then likely smarter then half these "top" reviewers.) It's not that hard people. Furthermore, replying directly to an actual review. IT'S NOT A STATEGY GAME. How did you, what, what, waaaat? I'm just not even going to comment on that one because it makes me lose my faith in humanity and all that jazz. I'm actually a casual gamer who doesn't like the slightest ounce of unfair challenge and I find the game to be relaxing and enjoyable. I've never used a walkthrough and nor have I needed to. The game is a fast paced, deck building game. It should be noted that this "Confusing" title has infomation on every single coin you pick up. If it has HP drain, or some generic stat point on it that makes it better. The deck building side is not what you expect. You have these donation boxes that are effectively "Garbage cans" that you throw your useless moves in into them. The more you donate to the gods, the easier this game becomes. You get more rare items and less garbage moves as you continue to please the gods. If you anger them, then say hello to that nice warm game over screen. Overall, the music is on par with Undertale in terms of being an OST masterpiece. The graphics are pleasing to the eyes. The controls are basically, one button on your mouse and the arrow keys. So that's easy enough to pick up on even if you don't own a twenty button four hundred thousand dollar gaming mouse. It's a wonderful title. Unlike most rouge likes, this is a game that you can sit down and have a glass of tea in the afternoon with. Unlike the stressful "I could die any minute" games that we're used to seeing in this genre.

This is a fun Adventure / Dungeon game where you travel through randomly generated levels to collect coins from looting chests or defeating monsters. Each coin offers a different ability in battle. One coin can be activated to attack, defend, cast poison, cast steal, cast slow or speed and many others. You can even stack up different coins for combination attacks. This game is very tricky in that you have to be careful not to use or lose all of your coins or it's Game Over and there is no continue. You will have to start right back from the beginning. But it's not all in vain as all the coins you collect earn you cash to spend towards new character unlockables. Each with different stats and powers to help you. You will also be able to unlock new and upgraded coins and new monsters that appear throughout the game. An online leaderboard is available to compare your progress with other Steam Users and there is also a cool daily challenge to help you earn new things. The game works smooth with both keyboard and mouse as well as a 360 controller. This is one of those games you will find yourself coming back to quite often. :)

In Coin Crypt, you are a lootmancer harnessing the power of coins. The gameplay mixes deck-building with standard roguelike elements - permadeath and random levels. Your bag of coins is used both for combat and for buying items. The combat is semi turn-based - coins have cast times and everything slows down while picking a coin. There's a lot of variety in coins, enemies, and classes. Of course, there's unlocks. Your total earnings go toward new classes and achievements unlock new classes, coins, and enemies. Games are generally quick and the variety keeps things interesting. Overall, it's good fun.
