Review summary

Monster Train is a Slay the Spire-like deckbuilder with roguelike depth that players praise for its addictive, replayable play and strong mobile performance. It’s widely regarded as one of the best deckbuilders, with many users praising the free option and the quality experience on Android. However, players also report issues: occasional glitches and DLC recognition problems, save/load problems on mobile (including fights not being saved when closing), UI quirks, and some feel the price is high. Overall, it’s a compelling, highly recommended title with caveats around stability and cost.

Price concerns; some players feel it is pricey.

2026-07-10	Ru*****	Ported from Steam. Without donation. No bugs. It works great. It's addictive. A lot of maps and factions. Stock up 150 hours plus. There's progression. 25 difficulty levels. High replayability. One of my favorite games.
