What hasn't been already said about balatro? Is such a clever idea to take the core mechanics of a solid game (poker), strip it's worse features (gambling) and adding it your own twists, step by step, one more crazy than the other.
I's just so satisfying to get a run going, get a good "deck" and yes the post game is cruel but i think that's the point, short runs with diferrent "decks" that let's you always wanting for more.
The nature of this shorter runs is made even better on handheld devices like the switch wich excels at that.
Balatro is a ton of fun, will i stop playing it? Hell no, it just felt like the right time to log it here haha
