Balatro is a roguelike deck-builder that blends familiar poker cards with exciting new mechanics, full of satisfying combos.

It’s a refreshing take on a tired genre, so there are certainly plenty of more gameplay avenues. The game is available now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox.

Rogouelike fans can also look forward to Hyper Light Breaker, another indie roguelike that launches into Early Access this summer.
