Slay the Horde is a horde survival roguelike deckbuilder about being a wizard in the most aggressively generic fantasy world possible. Goblins attack you. Ogres attack you. Bigger goblins eventually attack you. You respond by casting spells you randomly find along the way because apparently that is what all games are now.

Player takes the role of a generic fantasy mage who is trying to survive long enough to become slightly less generic. Survival hinges not only on moving out of danger and killing thousands of enemies, but more crucially on assembling an increasingly questionable build from spells, perks, upgrades, elemental effects, and whatever other systems were deemed necessary.
