Mana Wave Media is releasing Clark Aboud’s complete soundtrack on 2×LP vinyl, available in two variants: standard black for retail and an exclusive yellow-and-blue colored edition. The records have gorgeous new artwork from Nimit Malavia and include four new psych rock versions of classic tracks on vinyl for the very first time.
Pre-orders are now open and are limited to three per customer. Shipping is expected July/ August, be we’d encourage you to act fast as we imagine demand will be pretty high for this one.
Mike recently played Slay the Spire 2 during its Early Access phase and was convinced Mega Crit had captured magic once again. In this review, he said: “Slay the Spire 2 is a delicious deckbuilder, with classy audio-visuals, stellar presentation, and what looks like a huge amount of content already baked into the cake.”
He also pulled together a beginner’s guide, giving new players guidance on all of the game’s five characters. Be sure to give it a read if you’re planning your ascent soon.
