I’m not usually a huge fan of rogue-likes, but I’ve enjoyed a few, like Hades. I bought Balatro last week and have been absolutely smashing it ever since then. I love the way the game works, each run being so different even within the same framework, and the feeling when your build starts to go off is so incredibly satisfying.

Anyone else hopelessly addicted to joker poker?

      Addicting, fun, loads of builds/options.
      I do wish the early game was a bit more reliable. You can get stuck always playing catchup if you dont get a scoring joker in tge first couple shops

      “It’s a deck of playing cards. How much more fun can it be, compared to the 50+ other solitaire games? And why would I want to play poker by myself?”

      So I got a bit of money leftover after bills, and decided to get it anyway cause I haven’t played anything fun this year. Went in blind without reading or watching any reviews.

      Turns out it’s NOT just your standard deck of playing cards. You can do all sorts of crazy things to your deck. Like playing illegal hands such as five-of-a-kind, or a flush house. It’s a lot of fun.
