Inscryption is a horror card game from the developer of Pony Island - actually, as you might expect from this dev, it's a lot more than just a horror card game! Btw do you want this to be a series?

I enjoyed the Stoat growing increasingly frustrated as John ignored his hints on how to escape the murder cabin because he's having more fun playing cards with the weird forest monster
Maybe that's not a bad thing? (Lore / story wise.)
That stout is me in most John play throughs
After I beat the game I went back and just did runs of the cabin over and over which has some pretty rad little bits. Especially if you try and force past the parts where you are "supposed" to lose.
@@GirlPlus It's possible to win those too, when you know the grizzlies are coming you can stack your hand in advance, get a ton of pelts, and win by killing two of the grizzlies on one side, blocking the other three with whatever cards you have, and then dealing 5 damage on the free lane.
@@lich109 Or just get a mothman ready and scissor the bear in front of it ;)
When the Angler put out all those grizzly bears, he said, "Too fast, too soon."
That was because the game didn't want you to beat the Angler in your first go. It wanted you to learn about bones first.
Learn about bones and also introduce the concept of death cards
That and the DM in the first part gets mad when you go off the track too bad. The classic ”rocks fall and you die” scenario of a raging DM.
rip. John was just too OP for his own good.
@@simplyrin210 his name is Leshy
@@donniehamilton7797 Let people find out in their own time. XD I don't think the Scribe minds, considering he doesn't bother to introduce himself.
You can tell how much John likes the game because he doesn't say "red means scary" at 40:35
i don’t typically comment on things, but i would really enjoy seeing a series of this. you clearly have a very strong grasp of the strategy, greater than most who approach this game would, and it’s highly entertaining to watch. would love a series if you would be so willing.
wish you the best,

The reason you got hit with a full stack of grizzlies when you fought the angler the first time is actually bc you were doing too well on your first run 😂 it happens when you’re progressing too fast, which the storyteller doesn’t like
You can also hit them on the third boss as well.
@@allanbaker3958 very true, and not just on the first run, it depends on how far you get on an early run
It is possible to beat the grizzlies (I did it with two deathtouch cards, a wolf and a lot of pelts/squirrels) and if you do manage to do that then he doesn't force you to fight the grizzlies on future bosses. At least he didn't with me, I beat the Angler's stack (I lost to it on the Prospector so I was certain it was coming) and then the third boss didn't use the grizzlies on me.
So unfair
It's kinda cool tbh
Card games typically don't hold my attention or interest, but this was quite fun. I'd like this to be a series.
Exactly! I don’t usually like this types of game but this one is really well made and I’m actually interested what’s the lore behind it! Also the stoat! Love that guy
the horror elements created a tension that had me fearful at times, wondering if the shadow figure might lunge at you as you look around the cabin. the Stoat is a gem (didn't know what a stoat was until this game, oddly enough) and the art style is captivating. it's a strategy game with an easy to understand tutorial and intriguing story. would LOVE to see more of this !!
I thought it was more like a cat from this art 😅
I love how John is asking so many questions while actively ignoring all the hints to do stuff in the room
I honestly just want to see John play more of this game if only for the fact that he's enjoying it so much.
Same! And it gets so crazy!
I actually bought this game like 10 minutes into watching John play. He said "like MTG" And I got way to excited 😆
Only half an hour in, and personally I would love for John to continue this game! It seems rather unique compared to a lot of horror games, but most of all I enjoy videos where John seems to be having fun!
Yes, I agree!
Agreed!
I enjoyed this video a lot, and I also enjoy the strategic part of it and how John is thinking through it.
Agreed, John please continue this!
I hope he continues this, too. But at the end of act 1 when the boring part starts he will most likely stop
edit: when the AWESOME part happens (I mean it)
Lol I loved The relationship between the Stoat & John's friendship in the game. This was probably the most fun and relaxing video I have seen and it's because John is genuinely into this. I REALLY want to see a part 2. Fantastic unusual game! Love it 😊
The stoat was so cute lol
You poor souls… 😔
I normally don't like card games, but this one was so good, and you make it interesting because YOU understand it, so I don't need to. I enjoy watching you enjoy it. I'd love to see more, John!
Exactly. There’s something nice about watching someone play a game that requires some brain power when you can just sit there and be like *doooy*
I see your point, but this doesn't seem too difficult to pick up and play. Pretty fun from the looks of it.
The first time John faced the Angler he was not meant to live, it is part of the game. "TOO FAST, TOO SOON" as in your beating the game too fast, winning too soon. It can happen in any boss battle. So good on you for being too good.
I actually managed to beat the Grizzly Onslaught on the second boss with a lucky mothman on board + scissors. Too bad I lost to RNG on the third.
@@Mant111I have heard of people beating the grizzly onslaught but what I would be curious to know is if anyone made it through act one without dying.
@@ItsBugtronic check out sifd. He's beaten the whole thing on his first go. Crazy.
It's a good journey to complete this whole game. That is all I will say without spoilers.
Okay thanks I guess
@@kyleyoung5063 you're welcome! You should absolutely buy and try this game out. It's like nothing you've seen before, as we haven't even gotten to Act 2 or Act 3...!
agreed. this game is an experience, it just changes when you last expect it. it's amazing!
I honestly don’t get overly enthralled in card games, but something about this just puts it into a whole new perspective. I adore MTG, and this is just an amazing visualization and take on it, I adore it.
Edit: I’m probably gonna buy it and play it for myself LOL
two things:
-tbh I was fully waiting for john to play this game even if it took a whole month and it was worth the wait
-john using his "talking about/to a dog" voice when referring to the stoat's eyes being closed
Whilst I'd watch John play just about anything, it's really nice to see a game that tickles his fancy rather than a bland jumpscare simulator. Hoping for part 2
I just started watching John a couple weeks ago and was thinking "I want to see what games he actually likes". Don't get me wrong, I love his style of criticism, but this quickly became my favorite game and it feels good to see him have so much fun with it ^_^
Same. I hope they have this for console in the future.
Would love to see more of this game! Literally anything John is this into is just the most fun to watch in general - I don't even care if it's something I'd normally try out myself. And on top of that I super want to see where this goes. And maybe more of the stoat grumbling about the lastest victim enjoying cards too much to solve the cabin's puzzles. Seriously though, super great watch and cool to see John's takes on the strategy as the game evolves.
My favorite part of watching LPs of this game is how easy it is to get invested, I haven’t seen anybody NOT do a voice for the Prospector so far (even Manlybadasshero, who’s whole thing is being monotone!) I’m glad John’s enjoying the game so far, this was a ton of fun to watch!
I feel like Manly only does voices when he really gets into games
I've watched other playthroughs of this, at least partially, and I can tell that this is a game that John will really enjoy. I'd love to see him play it all the way through in a series, but hope he keeps playing even if we don't get to see it. I know I'll be watching if the series keeps on going. It is fun watching John play different stuff.
I need you to keep playing this.
You are BY FAR the most strategic and calculated player I've seen yet. (Of my favorite let's players) even your mistakes make sense and seeing how you figure it out (and trash talk) is entertaining.
It's very gratifying. I think you were going SO FAST that the "DM" slowed it down there. Forcibly.
To say, he cheated.
And please play more. You are clearly having fun and above all that's most cool to see.
You should check out ManlyBadassHero's let's play of this!
@@Bloomkyaaa Manly's playthrough is very calculated too. He was amazing at it. I'm so stoked that John is playing it now too
@@IzumiKazuko36 I love John's seriousness and I love Manly's aloofness.
This game is such a great change of pace imo. I mean, don't get me wrong, I enjoy being hooked upon a game and watch it closely with John's commentary on top as well, but having something more chill that you need to use your brain more than trying to navigate around the environment and take everything in, is a very welcome different perspective.
I am enjoying this so far. I’m 30 minutes in and seems fun. Definitely should make another part , I do love the Stoat. Great character, the opponent is a unique character
Personally, I'd love to see a series of this. I've seen a couple other people playing it before but I feel like it just really fits with you more than most others. You're clearly very strategic with your choices in games like this and I love seeing that.
Somewhat aside from that but I'd also absolutely love to see this game come to mobile. Hope the dev has plans for that. Mobile is absolutely made for good card games like this.
I've watched a couple playthroughs of this already, but I'm so, so glad to see John playing it. Really looking forward to his take on it.
And really bracing for all the people in the comments who will tell him he's playing it wrong.
He's actually doing pretty damn good so far.
@@allanbaker3958 really? I'm a fan of John but I think he's not thinking combinations of the sigils..
@@gamebankfull214 You are well exaggerating. John is slowly unraveling things but playing incredibly well. If you want to see a hot mess, watch Vinesauce's Vinny play it.
I watched someone played it and kept saying how much I wished John would play this . He always wants something diff and this is far from diff than his other games he doesn't enjoy so much
@@sold0ut210 your probably right about that one that maybe he'll start doing well as he goes, I haven't watched that Vinny you mentioned but when I watched mannlybadass playthrough I guess that's where I made the comparison
John should at least have over a million subscribers by now, his channel is legendary.
mid at best
You are right! He is the only gamer I really like. I know his humor isn't for everyone but I truly get mad when people see his comments as personal attacks...like dude the world doesn't revolve around you...If you want a people pleaser who screams all the time ok, you do you, but at least don't bother us.
True, sadly though I feel like he's lost some of his cynical edge which made for great moments.
@@bimblor7945 That is such a John response lmaoooo
He’ll get there! I’ve been watching for years & tell anyone who likes watching game play to watch him!
Liked, commenting for the algorithm. Already tons of folks here saying they're on board for a part 2, and I'm with them.
The game is excellent, and I'm really enjoying following along w your strategies.
Don't feel pressured to finish the game unless you want to, but please do a part 2. I want to know how things go with the Stoat and the Stinkbug.
21:33 is easily the best hee-haw I've heard watching all the lets plays of this I have.
YES, please turn this into a series. I blasted through it in four sittings with barely any breaks. This is some genuine game of the year stuff imo and I would love to see you experience the rest as well.
I’d love to watch more of this. Also I think the 8 grizzlies and the “too fast too soon” is about beating it too fast? And then the box you just unlocked its just small puzzles that you have to solve and opens each as a compartment/drawer
The slider puzzle is basically you trying to get 5 damage to your opponent. Everything that isn't locked in place you can slide up and down.
that happened bc john hadnt died prior to the angler! once he died the fight went as it was supposed to :) its really hard to beat the prospector first time, i didnt know you even could til now. i died twice before i beat him haha!
I absolutely loved watching John play this, he actually thinks through his moves which is refreshing. He's the first person I watched who got past the prospector first try
I love this type of game! Keep playing stuff more complicated than “run around hallways and read notes” I promise we like it
Please make this a series, John. I would love to see you play this to completion!
Totally agree!!
This was actually the only play through where I understood what was happening. Very entertaining thanks
For what it's worth, I'm enjoying watching you figure this out, and I'm looking forward to seeing how you respond to the twists. Watched Manly play this (and get stupidly lucky with his first death card), and I'd love to see more!
Not just the power of the death card either. Also the moment he realized what was happening on the board? His heart sank for a split sec. And then the snatch! And the moon play? Uuu, boy!
Your commentary turns this game into a hidden gem, seriously all the other times i watched from different tubers; i always fell asleep, but i enjoyed your video so much. Please play more!
This game is soo cool, I want this to be a real card game to play.
Also he brought out the grizzlies because you were too good at the game lol, you weren't supposed to get that far without dying.
Me dying twice before getting there ☠
I got the grizzlies before getting to the angler even
I guess I was doing too well so he whipped out his 8 grizzlies on a non angler round
@@agent5657 That happens if you get to the prospector without losing a life.
@@agent5657 it can happen in any Boss Battle
Really enjoyed the video John! The most enjoyable part for me was how you talked us through the strategies you were thinking of. Would love to see more! Hope you and Kimmy are doing well, much love your guys' way
agreed!
Definitely agree!!!
He understood the strats way faster than MatPat did. Though I don't know if it beats Markiplier with his FLYING URAYULI big brain strat. (Honestly, good grafted card.)
@@allanbaker3958 haven’t watched any other videos of this game, since card games aren’t really my forte but if John uploads something, i watch it! i like his way of playing naturally and not screaming all the time and exaggerating things like a “pro gamer” if that makes sense :D
30:30 if you’re having a good time, then most of us will be continuing to watch - this is actually the first card game I’ve watched on TH-cam as I usually watch visual novel type stuff or anything with a cool story, but your explanations and excitement while playing have drawn me in. Thankyou for introducing me to card games John!
Loved the hell out of you playing this. Of course its one of those videos that not everyone will like because it can be confusing or boring to watch. But hot damn I CANT get enough of you playing this man. The voices you do and how happy you get during new cards or twists is mad entertaining.
I’ve seen a couple other people play this, but I was stoked to see John doing it. I definitely wanna see more.
I will, heretofore, watch _all_ card game vids by John.
Even though I watched other TH-camrs play this game. I just love John’s thought process and strategy. So I will of course watch him play inscryption
This game is somehow simplistic, complex and interesting at the same time... It's incredible
this was incredibly interesting to watch, I really wanna purchase the game now, never thought watching this type of game would be so entertaining, especially with your commentary it’s so cool and fun!
This game was quite fun watching, kind made me want to play it. I hope John continues this series
Please, God. Make this a series!
I have seen this game around a lot, and my one thought was "This looks like Slay the Spire but it's a DnD Campaign with a bit of Darkest Dungeon Aesthetic" and immediately thought of you. You are the ONE person I wanted to watch play this game, ended up caving a day before you uploaded and watched someone else, and purchased the game myself. Very happy to see you play this and enjoy it! I felt like you would, I really do hope to see you continue!
Probably best to stick to recording and not streaming it, though, as you're right about the folks with the loud megamind plays.
What I love about people playing this game is how they get sucked into the DM/GM’s atmospheric narration and begin to read his lines accordingly. It’s so charming how quickly they get drawn into the roleplaying aspect.
I was just craving a new upload. Just in time for the night too.
Ooh, I was beginning to lose hope that you’d play this. Definitely one of my favorite releases this year.
This is SO entertaining. It's so fast paced and fun and I would love to see more of this
Kinda impressed how long it took for John to learn that the scale tips with damage. The closer you are to victory the more damage he has to deal to defeat you and vice versa.
Also the value of the Geck is that it is a damage dealing card that costs nothing. It's essentially just a squirrel that can attack.
So glad he's finally playing this. John you should definitely keep playing this, we would love to see it
I'm glad you picked it up, I'd personally love if you made this as a series - even on your second channel, if the algorithm gets upset.
Omg the Stoat is awesome! Can’t say I’ve ever seen a game like this but the style and gameplay is super cool, can’t wait to see the next installment! 😸
This was a lot of fun!! there's a lot more to this game and I'm happy that you enjoyed it
I don't get card games at all, even so if you make a second part to this I will definitely watch it, your commentary is sooo funny and I couldn't stop laughing with your impressions of the characters 🤣
I'm so happy this game is taking off like it is. Loved it since it was still "Sacrifices must be Made" and I love the direction the game took thereafter.
I am heavily enjoying this, and would love to watch more videos for this!
It seems like a game I wouldn't ever play myself, but really fun to watch you play!
This game was so much fun to watch.
One thing I love about you John is when you get so good at a game you just demolish it from being amazing. You did this with Resident Evil 7 which was one of ny favorite series you did.
I am a huge fan of Magix the gathering but I'm not very good at it so this was super fun to watch. I hope you continue to do this series and more games like this. Although it may get confusing at times it doesn't dimish how much fun it is to watch and how much fun it is to watch you truly enjoying a game.
I like how he kept confusing the mushroom for a tooth even though you can literally see it grow out of the table and it has a stem. lol. Color does resemble one at least to be fair.
I love the idea of a good horror card game ...but you had me at "the developer of Pony Island."
That was one of my top 3 favorite play-throughs you've done ...you matching wits with and smack-talking daemons was [chef's kiss] levels of wonderful!
[Edit: finished watching] That was DAMN GOOD and I really want to know what happens ...One vote for more, please!😁
Ugh I'm SO happy you're playing this! What a treat
What is the animal on your pfp?!?
And also why TF are you moaning. Moaners.
@@user-km8oh1ll5t Are you 5 or an alien? It's called expressing relief. I really like this game so I'm glad John is playing; it's pretty simple.
The only gaming channel that is fully committed to the card game aspect over freedom from the horror cabin and overarching plot. Love it!
I don’t normally comment on videos, but I really - REALLY would like to see a full game play or series of this! I enjoyed watching the stoat’s n johns friendship grow throughout every level. I feel like John has a genuine interest in playing this game and it’s been relaxing and entertaining to watch especially during finals 😭
john is the first youtuber i have seen to easily surpass the prospector. wow.
Why should I go out on a Friday night when I could watch John play this? You're always the best John, hope you reach 1 million subs soon, you deserve it!
I hope this becomes a series! Love seeing John work out puzzles, it's very interesting to watch.
Really nice game! The monsters' capacities really remind of Magic indeed.
Thanks for having me discover it. And glad you know Slay the Spire, this one is addictive as hell too!
This is really different in a totally cool way. I've never been in to card games IRL but this was really gripping to watch. I feel quite invested now and would love to see John turn this into a series
Omg omg thanks John! I was so bored on my job break. Super excited. Sending lots of love and good vibes for you, your family, Kimmy and friends. Enjoy the weekend and thank you so much for your content as always
I would LOVE a series of this game. The lore and cabin exploration adds so much.
I loved your play through, it was nice hearing your thought process and hearing the narrator! It’s a very unique game combo. I’m a big fan of card/roguelike games, so this seems right up my alley!
Absolutely love this one. Watched other playthroughs and it seems John is playing the cards a lot more correctly with squirrels, while other youtubers just keep pulling their own cards but nothing to sacrifice.
I’ve watched Sean and Mark play this and am greatly enjoying how they’ve all chosen different voices for the characters 😂 It’s like seeing them all read a disturbing bedtime story!
Same! I’m excited to watch him play through since all their styles are completely different!
I want to see Dom play now. lmao
keep em coming. the more intricate games probably pull less views because its always casual to put on some shitty indie horror comp and listen to you fight through it in the background. These games require investment from the audience. I for one am down to sit back and watch you get through it. The story is captivating.
I am VERY excited to watch you play through this! It’s definitely a different style than a lot of people watch, but I think this one will go well for you and the channel! You know I’ll be here watching! :)
I will say John. I am actually really enjoying this knowing I'm unable to play games right now. because I have no console and my computer would not be able to handle it. watching something like this gets me excited for the future.
"I can't play anything". Takes a card instead of a Squirrel.
"I can't play anything". Takes yet another card instead of a Squirrel.
Loses.
I liked how his posture and demeanor changed when he started figuring it out. It was cool to watch him have fun.
I hope you keep playing this game, the game itself is incredibly charming and I love watching you strategize!
John was literally one of the people I definitely looked forward to see playing this! So yes please, another part/parts would be absolutely awesome!
Such a great game. Happy that it gets a bit more exposure lately.
You say that like it didn't come out a month ago :P
What a unique game! Definitely the #1 thing from this year that I was excited to see John play. He seems to be one of the only people going with an actual strategy rather than luck.
Very interesting game! I'd love to watch it as a series
Yes!! Love to see a different playthrough of this game
The atmosphere is great, I like how the opponent takes the role of the different bosses, and it's even better with your narration. Definitely entertaining to watch, I would enjoy seeing more of it!
I was so excited when I saw you uploaded this! Glad you're enjoying this & would definitely love to see more of this as a series!
I'd love to watch more of this. I tried watching it on other people's channels but couldn't pay attention to it. But watching you play this game had me really pulled in. You seem to really enjoy this game and it make it that more entertaining to watch.
Keep going with this! Keep, keep going! This game is a "sum of it's parts" type experience that just keeps rewarding you. I'd really like to see your continued take on this GOTY contender.
i’m honestly so in love with this game and it’s probably bc i loved 21 and the art style reminds me a lot of a pop-up book!! can’t wait to see more!
I love this! It was super interesting to watch. I'd love if this was a series!
I know what you mean how these videos can be risky to post to TH-cam. As for me, I absolutely loved this game and your commentary on it. I already bought it to play myself but would like to see this continue on your channel as a series, too. Thanks for being awesome, John!
This game is SO good, bought it out of curiosity only knowing that it's a "roguelike card game" and it's now one of my favorite games of the past few years!
im so glad that john decided to play this game for us! count me as one who would like to see more inscryption episodes.
"What's that mean? I can take some rocks off my scale?" Not quite...
Really enjoyed this video! There's a lot of comedy to this horror, and the trope of playing a game for your life is really fun.
I would love to see you play more of this game! I’ve just recently discovered my own love of card games and seeing you play this was amazing!!
OMG i watched almost a full playthrough of this game there are no words to describe how excited I am to watch John play!!
Definitely would love to see another video on this. I'm about half way done but it's already so much fun watching
I would absolutely LOVE to see you continue this as a series. it's such a cool game and I love seeing you have such a fun time with a game like this. would watch the hell out of this
