Alternate Acts are Slay the Spire 2's answer to repeat-run fatigue. Each act has two biome variants, randomized per run after unlock. The variants share the same progression slot (Act 1, Act 2, Act 3) but swap the entire enemy pool, events, elites, and boss encounters.
Mega Crit's Neowsletter #14 confirmed the Act 1 split: Overgrowth (a verdant forest biome) vs. Underdocks (a dark, flooded harbor biome). The same reveal promised Act 2 and Act 3 alternates during Early Access — those are now live as of v0.102.0.
This page catalogs which bosses, elites, and signature enemies belong to which biome, so you can read the loading screen and know immediately what to expect.
驗證說明
Officially revealed by Mega Crit on September 11, 2025 (Neowsletter #14). Boss-to-biome assignments verified against NamuWiki monster data and in-game encounter logs from March-April 2026.

Act 1 Overgrowth is the forest biome — Mega Crit's replacement for the first game's Exordium. Expect Leaf Slimes, Phrog Parasites, and Myte-family Poison mobs. The signature Act 1 Overgrowth boss is the Ceremonial Beast (252/262 HP), a Nemesis-tagged fight with three distinct phases.
Act 1 Underdocks is the dark harbor biome — sea-themed enemies including Haunted Ship (63/67 HP), Noisebot, and the Inklings that lead up to Vantom (173/183 HP) as their boss. Soul Fysh (211/221 HP) can appear as the alternate Act 1 Underdocks boss in some run-seeds.
Act 2 biomes were added in post-launch patches. The two variants swap elite pools entirely: one biome emphasizes Affliction-heavy elites (Hunter Killer, Lagavulin Matriarch), the other emphasizes high-HP brawlers (Waterfall Giant, Kin Priest).
Act 2 bosses confirmed in v0.102.0 include Kaiser Crab, Knowledge Demon, and The Insatiable (321/341 HP, instant-death sand-pit mechanic). Each boss is biome-gated — The Insatiable only appears in the desert/subterranean variant.
Act 3 has two biome variants with four confirmed bosses split across them: Doormaker (489/512 HP), The Queen (400 HP), Torch Head (199 HP), and Test Subject #C10. Each biome gets two of the four, and Phase 3 (300/313 HP, triggered by certain boss fights) acts as a secondary encounter inside the biome.
Doormaker is the most mechanically complex Act 3 boss with a 3-turn Affliction cycle (Hunger → Scrutiny → Grasp). Queen, Torch Head, and Test Subject #C10 don't apply Afflictions but trade that for higher raw damage output.
When you arrive at the start of a new act, the act's name and art on the loading screen telegraph the biome. Because each biome has a fixed elite and boss pool, seeing 'Overgrowth' instead of 'Underdocks' tells you exactly which Act 1 boss you'll fight.
Use this signal to shape your Act N-1 drafts. If you know Act 2 will be Biome A (Affliction-heavy), prioritize Artifact relics and card removal in late Act 1. If you know Act 2 will be Biome B (raw-damage focus), prioritize Block and burst-damage cards.
Alternate Acts unlock through the Epochs/Timeline progression system. New players start with Overgrowth only for Act 1 — Underdocks unlocks after completing a full Act 1 run.
Variance across 10 consecutive runs: the community-tracked distribution settles at roughly 50/50 between biome variants per act slot, so expect 5/10 Overgrowth runs on average. This balances practice repetitions against the goal of keeping runs fresh.
STS1 pathing advice assumed one Act 1, one Act 2, one Act 3. STS2 breaks that assumption: your deck isn't solving 'Act 2' — it's solving Biome A or Biome B. Draft priorities diverge.
Example: Silent Poison decks score above-average win rates against Act 2 Biome B (Waterfall Giant has no Artifact) but below-average against Biome A (Hunter Killer's Tenderizing Goop Weak stalls Noxious Fumes stacking). A good Silent deck picks which biome it can beat before committing.
對比
Alternate Acts are a direct answer to a first-game limitation: veterans could talk about acts as stable destinations more often than the sequel seems to want.
殺戮尖塔 1
Act 1, Act 2, and Act 3 each had a more stable identity in the original climb.
殺戮尖塔 2
Act slots can branch into different versions such as Overgrowth and the Underdocks.
為什麼重要
Route advice now has to care about the actual branch, not just the act number.
殺戮尖塔 1
Veterans often carried strong expectations about the enemies and bosses waiting in a given act.
殺戮尖塔 2
Mega Crit says alternate acts vary in enemies, events, bosses, and even presentation.
為什麼重要
That makes repeat-run planning less deterministic at the act-label level.
FAQ
No. Act 1 Overgrowth is available immediately, but Underdocks unlocks after completing your first full Act 1 run on any character. Act 2 and Act 3 alternate biomes unlock alongside Ascension 1 progression. Mega Crit gates them this way so new players meet one biome before the system randomizes.
No. Each biome variant has a completely different enemy pool, elite pool, event pool, and boss pool. Overgrowth and Underdocks share zero enemy types. Audio (music and SFX) also differs. The only shared element is the act-level progression (N rooms, 1 elite-heavy path, 1 boss).
Underdocks. Vantom (173/183 HP) combines Slippery 9 (incoming damage capped to 1 per hit) with Injury-adding attacks that poison your deck — this hard-counters multi-hit decks like Defect Claw and Silent Shivs. Overgrowth's Ceremonial Beast (252/262 HP) is predictable by comparison because each phase telegraphs the next. Community win-rate data backs this out: Overgrowth averages 5-8 percentage points higher win rate across Ascensions.
No. Biome assignment is random per run once both variants are unlocked for that act slot. The only indirect control is the Seeded Run mode, where a seed value determines the biome deterministically. In normal runs, treat the biome as a coin flip revealed at the act transition.
Not committed. Mega Crit's original plan was two biomes per act, and v0.102.0 delivers that. Casey Yano's April 2026 Kotaku interview didn't name additional biomes in the pipeline — the next post-launch content will likely be new characters and new game modes instead. Treat the current 2-biome-per-act structure as the final state unless Mega Crit announces otherwise.
The loading screen between acts names the biome and shows biome-specific art. The act transition screen also displays the bosses available in that biome. You can't preview before triggering the transition — biome selection locks in at the transition moment, not before. Plan your late-act-N deck around handling either possible biome.
