5.0 out of 5 stars Seriously, play this game.

Simple yet addictive gameplay. I normally don't play roguelikes neither card games, but this game is amazing, it's easy to pickup and the replayability value is GREAT. Don't sleep on this one.

I already owned this game on PS5, but bought it again on Switch for portability. This is one of my personal games of the year for 2024. Nice take on the roguelite genre that has me wanting to keep playing to unlock everything!

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly addicting!

This game plays like poker but you have to defeat "bosses" that have different abilities that effect your card hand. It is quick to pick up if you know anything at all about poker, replayability is there just because no two games will play the same, and it's addicting and challenging enough to keep you coming back!

I've sunk hundreds of hours into the digital version, so when I heard a physical copy was being released, I couldn't help myself. This is an incredible deck builder that essentially follows the principles of poker, but its so much more. The Jokers are what really make this game so unique. The strategies you use and the combos you can string together are so much fun. It's very addicting and before you know it you'll get quite good at using the different Joker combinations to beat the blinds and boss blinds. I would highly recommend this game to anyone that knows the basic rules of poker and likes deck builders. I barely know a thing about poker but this game changed that. Just buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing game, disappointing physical cards included in special edition.
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2024
Physical cards included:
- 5 aces each in a different enhancement (gold, steel, mult, bonus and wild)
- 5 jokers (throwback, joker, ice cream, abstract and hack)
- Card backs are all anaglyph deck

Five stars because this is game of the year but the physical cards included in the special edition are disappointing, assuming they are the same in every pack. Five are just aces and there are far better designed jokers that could have been included. Throwback and hack are cool but the other three are underwhelming. Also, would have liked to see a variety of card backs.
