“Learning the ins and outs of the combat system in Banners of Ruin feels very satisfying.” Although some runs will be less successful than others, you’re not going to progress far without the game providing SOME kind of useful upgrade.

The encounter system in Banners of Ruin seeks to mitigate some of the frustrating randomness inherent to the roguelike genre for instance, the set of encounters prior to the boss will always provide major benefits, like a tavern to recruit new agents, a full heal, or more equipment. There is a decent amount of variety and mystery to some of the encounters some of them provide benefits with no strings attached, whereas others might ask you to give up something in return. Unlike in Slay the Spire, you can’t see what encounters will come next, only how many more until the next boss encounter. These might be combat, a merchant or something else entirely. Once you have started your run by picking the species of your two starter agents, you progress by choosing one of three encounter cards. As you venture deeper into the city, you often get to make choices that determine just how much more morally superior you are to House Ender upon seeing a merchant being harassed by guards, will you stand up for them and risk a combat encounter, or steal some florens in the scuffle and leave them to their fate? While there isn’t the same level of story focus as some other roguelikes, Banners of Ruin’s strong writing and intricate character and card art designs went a long way toward immersing me in the setting, even across multiple runs. To begin with, you only have access to Mouse and Bear race options, however several more become available as you progress. Starting off with two characters, you can eventually recruit up to a party of 6. In Banners of Ruin, you play as agents of the Blackfoots, a clan seeking to take down tyrannical House Ender by infiltrating the city of Dawn’s Point.

Featuring a variety of anthropomorphic animals armed to the teeth, and a rather deep combat and upgrade system, Banners of Ruin manages to stand out and bring something new to the table in the increasingly diverse card-based roguelike genre. Having been in Early Access for quite a while (with Checkpoint’s Lise having covered an earlier build last year), it is finally ready for its full release. Developed by Montebearo, Banners of Ruin takes a now-familiar deck-builder roguelike structure seen in popular games such as Slay the Spire, Griftlands and Monster Train, and adds their own spin on that familiar turn-based combat system.
