What is Balatro?
Here's a unique take on describing Balatro: As you navigate the grid-like world of Balatro, you'll find yourself entwined in a strategic dance between resource management and army deployment. This indie strategy game from LocalThunk offers a relaxed pace, perfect for casual players or those looking to unwind with a thought-provoking experience. With a main story that clocks in at six hours, there's ample opportunity to absorb the narrative while still having plenty of room to explore and discover hidden paths. For completionists, however, be prepared to sink up to 115 hours into the game as you strive for perfection.

Widely considered one of the best in its genre. A short, focused game. You’re paying a mild premium for the experience. A light deal — not the star attraction.

A roguelike deckbuilder debut already worth of joining Slay the Spire and Monster Train at the King's table. Essential.

Balatro is an ingenious and entertaining roguelike and one of my favorite games of the year. Playing it has become a near-obsession; everything feels perfectly designed to encourage you to keep trying because that next run could be the run of your life. Even after hours of play, I still can’t overcome Balatro’s biggest challenge: putting it down.
