Picture of text saying Ability: Sinkhole. At the end of each turn, lower the opponent's Speed by 1 stage. If this Rogumon's Speed is higher than the opponent's, increase its Physical Attack and Magical Attack by 50%.

Just came across a Steam curator review for my game's demo. Thanks for the recommendation, Midnight Moose 🫎

Screenshot of Steam curator recommendation by Midnight Moose for the game Rogumon. Review says "Pokemon + Slay the Spire but you have a team of adorable monsters! Catch new mons, level them up while equipping powerful items, but most importantly switch out to have type advantage. Fun & cute!"
