Watch “Slay the Spire: The Silent Full Playthrough,” a gameplay video for Slay the Spire: The Board Game from Merlin's Manor on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Merlin's Manor on YouTube:
In this video, I do a full playthrough of Slay the Spire the Board Game with the Silent, showcasing the use of poison and shivs along the way.
I did make a few mistakes (most of them just forgetting to do something... and I included text pointing out the errors), but everything seems to have evened out to the point that the game would have played out with the same final result.
The one thing that I played wrong (and pointed out with text during editing) was the way I applied weakness. Weakness applies to the entire attack and then is removed, but I applied it to each individual attack icon one at a time and then removed the token. This gave the enemies a slight advantage (since this only occurred towards the enemies doing multi-attacks and not me doing them). In the end, it did not change anything about the outcome of the game (in fact one time equalized an error I had made in my favor).
I also forgot that when playing solo you start with 2 more gold.

About Slay the Spire: The Board Game, from BoardGameGeek:
Slay the Spire: The Board Game is a co-operative deck-building, dungeon-crawling adventure. Craft a unique deck, encounter bizarre creatures, discover relics of immense power, and finally become strong enough to slay the Spire!
Each player starts with a character with unique abilities and a simple deck of cards that they can improve by adding and removing cards during the game. Slay the Spire is also a rogue-like. That means that when you die (and you will die!), start over from the beginning. Take the lessons you learned and try again!
The game is divided into Acts. At the end of an Act you can continue, stop and end the adventure there, or save and continue another time!
If players defeat the final Boss, they win the game! Which Boss you consider to be final depends on how many Acts you want to play. You can stop playing at the end of any Act! When a player's HP is reduced to 0, they are dead and the party loses the game.
