The great deckbuilder gets bigger!
Deck-building roguelikelikeMonster Trainlast night officially launched its mod support, after a short beta, opening it up to all sorts of player-made newness. Possibilities include new cards, new monsters, new looks, and so on, and I see some folks have already made a whole new playable faction. After seeing how muchSlay The Spire modsshook up that other card-slinging dungeon-crawl, I’m dead keen to see what happens here. I’m already digging that fan-made faction, the floor-shifting Arcadians.

Mod support is now live, and you canhit the Steam Workshopto get going. Mods so far span the full spectrum of seriousness. TheStoker Deck Editorlets you add, remove, upgrade, and change your deck at will to fiddle with different builds or just cheat for funsies.Restart Battle Buttonadds a handy button doing just that.Hellhorned Friendsrenames the Demon Fiend and Alpha Fiend to Friends. AndA Mod About Nothingreplaces some sound effects and musical cues with Seinfeldian slap bass stings, audience applause, and sitcom outro tunes.
Perhaps the biggest so far,Arcadian Clanadds a whole new playable faction with 40 new cards, 11 new artifacts, and, for now, some cute placeholder art. They focus on bouncing units around floors, with some who fall, some who rise, and all sorts of perks coming with movement. They’re shaping up to be an interesting Clan with lots of potential for cool tricks and plays, though I’ll need to play more to really tell -quelle dommage. Heck, I still don’t have the full measure ofthe new subfactions added last month.
Oh, and because it’s Halloween, your train is temporarily spooky. Jack-o'-lanterns are lit, bats are flapping about, Train Stewards have pumpkin heads, and oh my goodness I just saw the Rubble Morsel is carrying candy corn instead of an energy orb. I wonder what else is spookified.
