I believe Slay the Spire has more replayability within the more limited seed (classes, deck archetypes).
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
59 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I really like the character customization even though it's pointless to manually customize your character because you die a lot.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The combat is also more strategic, since most synergies have both positive and negatives.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are on point and I particularly love the voice work, snappy one liners full of bravery, sark and smugness - funny oftentimes too.
