Rose City Games brings some joy to players of Floppy Knights with the release of its second major update. Update v2.0 introduces new content, including new playable characters and a new set of Slime Cards, among other things.
Floppy Knights is a deck-building tactics game where players have complete control over which set of cards they want to incorporate into their decks. There are even complimentary cards to enable execution of seamless combos; the possibilities are endless! There are even different decks to suit various playstyles as well. For example, the Monsters Deck that specializes in tankiness with additional armor can trade HP for buffs.
Update v2.0 adds some really exciting content like the addition of new playable characters, Alex and Snarlton. They are available in a brand-new side quest with four new stories and challenge levels.
In addition, players can use a brand-new set of Slime Cards during the new side quest. These can be unlocked and used in the base game by finishing the new content in this patch.
Aside from that, Update v2.0 includes new Assist Mode options, settings that make Floppy Knights more beginner-friendly by giving newbies much-needed boosts. For instance, activating “Novice Knight” lets newbies start each turn with +1 Energy and all of their units gain +1 ATK as well. Furthermore, enemies only have half of their original HP, making them easier to defeat.
