Balatro is a roguelike for gamers who don't like roguelikes... and then everybody else on top of that. It utterly nails what it sets out to do, providing an instantly accessible, satisfying, and addictive gameplay loop that anybody can grasp. It's an immensely enjoyable experience from the start, but as you get deeper in, there's really nothing else quite like it. We suspect we'll be hearing a lot about Balatro when conversations steer towards Game of the Year, because this is a clear and obvious frontrunner. Utterly sublime.

I'm not really a fan of deck-builders or card games, but I tried Balatro anyway after seeing all the positive reviews. I can confidently say everything you've seen, read, and heard about Balatro is true: this is a fantastic game. It's easy to learn, tough to master, and an exceptionally enjoyable experience. There is essentially endless replay value here, and depth you would never expect in what at first appears to be a "Rogue-like poker game." Very highly recommended, and an essential addition to any Nintendo Switch library!
