    The love-hate relationship with this game can only be described as a Big Mac — tastes good while you're downing the burger, but the regret kicks in soon after, leaving you questioning your life choices and promising never to do it again… until next time.

    I've finished all the challenges, however now working my way back playing all the other decks and difficulties.

      Big mac is feral whilst downing. I don't even eat them when they're free for footy rewards for whatever. Thanks, you've saved me from balatro.

    • Same, spent a lot of time on the jokerless run.

  • I was expecting to lose myself in this game, but it’s not like Rome total war one more turn crack.

  • 206 hours in… HELP ME.

  • When does it end

  • Awesome game. The random multipliers are awesome!

    I was playing this on Xbox until my game pass expired.
    Any reason to get it on Switch instead of Android?
    Looks like it's $14.99 in the Play Store.

    • Get on Android and can take advantage of google survey credit. Touch controls work fine but you will be playing it more.

        Yeah, I've purchased for Android.
        Having if on the phone is much easier to jump in and start playing.

        • It can make some phones toasty so you can turn off some settings like animations.

  • +1

    Nope!

    • There's a challenge where you get a full glass deck with two dice jokers so they're guaranteed to break when used. But it means that Wheel of Fortune has a 100% strike rate.

  • Most addictive game I've played in years, absolutely incredible gameplay loop
    4 stars out of 5
