If you’ve been enjoying the excellentCobalt Coreas part of this month’sRPS Game Club, you may well have stumbled into Soggins the frog along your travels. Running into this hapless buffoon is always a delight in Cobalt Core, as he’s one of the few special characters who doesn’t instantly attack you on sight. Rather, the task here is always to try and save him from his own idiocy - namely, his malfunctioning ship that keeps firing his missiles right back toward him. He’s an ungrateful little sod if you do rescue him from certain doom, but I kinda love him for it anyway - and thanks to an industrious pair of modders, you can now have Soggins join your crew to inflict his own special brand of personal chaos on you.

Both sound very in keeping with Soggins as force of chaos, and you can see the full deck Arin and Shockah have created for him above. The background art has some particularly nice touches (‘Pressing Buttons’ and ‘I’m Always Right’ are brilliant, good work everyone), and the sheer number of references to both his smugness and apologetic nature also made me chuckle.
Cobalt Core is currently 20% off over onSteam, too, bringing this excellent roguelike deckbuilder to just £13/$16.
