A free roguelike deckbuilder like Slay the Spire, online
Slay the Spire defined the roguelike deckbuilder. If you want that loop for free, in a browser tab, Nuke Deck is a full deckbuilder with 5 heroes and 142 cards.
The Slay the Spire part
Pick a hero, start with a small deck, add cards after every fight and climb toward a boss. Energy, block, status effects, elites, events between fights and a different run every time: it plays the way you expect.
What Nuke Deck does differently
Enemies have Nerve as well as health: break it and they run, so talking and intimidating are real ways to win. Your weapon comes to hand every turn, guns burn ammo you carry for the whole run, and radiation powers you up while it mutates you, with 16 mutations good and bad. A run is three days and three bosses in a 1955 desert town, with 10 Heat levels and a Daily run.
