    I feel like I play a good amount of rouge likes – The best ones I finish one time, but Balaltro and Slice & Dice I have finished like 7 times each. Such great games.

      Yeah the rates of new stickers should be a bit less but it’s way better than what it used to be, at least you’re not losing on ante 2 constantly due to bad rng

    I’ve been thinking about a Balatro community for a few weeks now, but life has been too crazy for me to create it. I’m really excited about this! If you’re looking for mods, please let me know. I’d be interested in helping out!

    Is this like Slay the Spire? I had a lot of fun with that rogue like deckbuilder for awhile.

      Yes, but poker themed. ‘Combat’ is a round of poker themed solitaire with a point target. This is followed by an opportunity to spend money to upgrade your deck with fancy cards or modifiers. The point targets are constantly increasing, so you need to keep upgrading to complete a run.

      If you like Slay the Spire, I would definitely give Balatro a shot.

      To add on to what the_gmg said, there’s a free demo of it on Steam that will give you a feel for it.
