Balatro is a very exciting, albeit mildly flawed game that I am absolutely *obsessed* with. It's like poker, but you don't really need to know anything about poker, just about the complexities of how to put all these jokers to good use. Nearly 20 hours in and I still feel like I suck, but I'm steadily learning and improving!

That being said, I do think the game could use a little more replayability, mainly through content updates that add new jokers and new things to play with. It'd be cool if we could get special joker packs that put only certain joker types into the mix, to add some new types of synergies!

I could see the game feeling a little stale after a while, but I've already gotten more than my moneys worth anyways, so who cares? Buy this game.
