Slay the Spire is one of the most popular and best deckbuilder games out there, and among the best roguelikes as well.
Being thus, it is a challenging game, and sometimes you just need that helping hand. Or, perhaps, something ahs gone awry and you just want to quickly fix it. So, here is how you can access the Slay the Spire console and use commands to boost yourself or troubleshoot potential issues.
Prerequisite: ModTheSpire and BaseMod
Before we can get into the console command list, we will have to gain access to the console itself. It is not in the game by default and requires third-party mods to be installed. Keep in mind that this only works for the Steam version of the game. Workarounds for Game Pass users might crop up at some point in time, but as things stand, Slay the Spire‘s Steam version is the only moddable one.
So, here is what you need to do to get the console in Slay the Spire:
- Go to the game’s Steam Workshop page.
- Under Most Subscribed, find ModTheSpire and BaseMod.
- Subscribe to both mods and wait for the download to finish.
- Go to Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/646570.
- From the first folder, copy the ModTheSpire.jar file into Steam/steamapps/common/SlayTheSpire.
- Delete the mts-launcher.jar file and then give ModTheSpire.jar its name.
- Run Slay the Spire from Steam and select Play with Mods.
- After it launches, close it.
- Go back to Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/646570, and copy BaseMod.jar from the second folder and paste it into Steam/steamapps/common/SlayTheSpire/mods.
- Relaunch Slay the Spire in the same manner, check that BaseMod is enabled, and press Play.
- Once in the game, go to Mods in the main menu, then BaseMod, and then Enable developer console.
And you should be able to play the game with the console enabled. Keep in mind that installing any mod will involve your taking its file out of the workshop folder and placing it into the mods folder in the game’s install directory, managed by ModTheSpire.
