Several games have done the Poker meets roguelike mix, but none quite as efficiently as Balatro. Balatro truly understood what fans of both things wanted by basing the mechanics around poker but encouraging you to break the game in similar ways as roguelikes like Luck be landlord or Endgame of Devil.

It's a very fun time exploring the broken combos in this game, only to be beaten back into humility by some of the truly brutal boss blinds in this game.

Definitely recommend it to people who think they'd enjoy a non-serious poker game or fans of Luck be Landlord style roguelikes. Not quite the autobattler type game that one is, but captures the same vibes, and I mean that in the best of ways.
