I don't tend to get into roguelikes, I find Binding of Isaac and Synthetik to be good time killers but require too much attention from me for something to idly play while listening to music or podcast or video essay, and the recent trend in the genre with games like Hades and Going Under to include a story deterred me even more. When I started up Balatro for the first time I did not intend to find myself in a daze 2 hours later exiting the game. It is a simple concept yet manages to have a lot of depth, definitely worth a try if the game sounds interesting to you
