Coop Mode

Summary
Coop Mode is one of the two modes in Spire with Friends and supports 2-6 players.

In this mode, the players form a team whose goal is to each beat the game individually. Each player chooses the character they wish to play and ascends the spire just like in a solo run of Slay the Spire. However there are new features which allow players to interact with each other and influence their friends' runs, helping them out along the way.

To win this mode, every player needs to beat the Third Act boss, or if Heart mode is enabled, beat the Heart. Due to the nature of the game, a Coop run is slightly more difficult than a regular solo run. Therefore players need to work together to make sure everyone succeeds!

Coop Mode Tips

 * Play different characters and use the Courier to create interesting and powerful combinations with cross-class cards.
 * Coordinate paths to take advantage of multi-nodes.
 * The Courier at the end of the map is a good place to meet up with your friends before the boss. If two players are both in a courier at the same time they can both send each other packages.
 * Consider playing at a lower ascension than what you play in solo. Even the best spire players only have around a 60% win rate on high ascensions. Because of the way statistics works, this means that Coop runs are actually much harder than regular runs, even with extremely skilled players.
 * The team is only as strong as the weakest link. If someone is struggling, try to send them help through the Courier, or coordinate movements on the map so that they have an easier path. Cooperation is vital for success.
 * Clicking on a player's name opens up a Steam Chat with them.
 * There are also voice and text channels available in the Discord Server for playing with friends and meeting new ones!
