Обсуждения игроков
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийA poker-themed roguelike deckbuilder by solo dev LocalThunk in which you play (deliberately illegal) poker hands and stack Joker modifiers to beat escalating score targets.
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийBalatro is one of the most acclaimed indie releases of the decade: Metacritic 90 from 32 critics (100% positive), OpenCritic 92 with 100% of critics recommending, and Steam shows about 97.8% positive across roughly 199k reviews (Overwhelmingly Positive). Critics compared it directly to Slay the Spire and called it extremely addictive and easy to pick up; players echo this and most of the negativity is about RNG-heavy high difficulties rather than the base game. It is not early access, but the long-promised 1.1 content update was delayed into 2026 (developer declined a 2025 date to avoid crunch), which some players read as the game being slow-moving or abandoned. It sold over 5 million copies by January 2025, and later won multiple awards (Game Developers Choice GOTY, Game Awards indie and debut categories, BAFTA Debut).
Что хвалят игроки
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийExtremely addictive 'one more run' loop: short runs, instant restarts, and big satisfying score cascades
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийJoker synergies and combo-building (retriggers, scaling jokers, Blueprint/DNA-style engines) create wildly different runs and 'broken build' payoffs
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийEasy to learn even for people who do not know poker; the run-info screen teaches hands visually and the game pulls in non-roguelike players
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийJuicy presentation: screen feel, animations, sound design and the chill, catchy soundtrack are repeatedly praised
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDistinct pixel-art joker designs and overall CRT-like style give it a strong identity
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийGreat value at about $15 with hundreds of hours of play for many, plus a huge unlock list (decks, vouchers, stakes) for completionists
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLow system requirements and wide availability (PC, Mac, mobile, consoles); short runs suit mobile and handheld play
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийMade by one person, which reviewers and players treat as part of its appeal
Что критикуют игроки
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLuck dominates at higher stakes: players say skill matters less and run quality is decided by shop and joker RNG, with stacked RNG layers (shop, boss blinds, draws, probabilistic cards like Wheel of Fortune)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийAll-or-nothing blinds: missing a target by a hair ends the run, so losing is abrupt and feels bad rather than a slow, engaging struggle
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийHigher stakes remove resources (fewer discards, less income, stickers) which pushes players toward a narrow set of viable builds (high card, pairs) and away from straights and flushes
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийSome players find few meaningful decisions after the first few rounds once a build direction is locked in
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийJoker pool dilution as more jokers unlock: many weak or non-synergistic jokers clog shops, with no way to banish or curate them
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийSome find it designed to be compulsive rather than rewarding, leaving a flat or guilty feeling after wins
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийProgress does not sync between platforms (for example mobile and Steam), forcing players to unlock everything twice
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийFamously time-consuming: top Steam reviews joke about losing hours, 3 AM sessions and being unable to stop
Отличительные особенности
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTakes poker hands as the combat system rather than fantasy combat, then breaks poker rules with jokers, so 'illegal poker' is the hook
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийScore is a chips-times-mult multiplication, so scaling comes from stacking multiplicative jokers into exponential numbers (players joke about e-notation scores)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийPlanet cards upgrade hand types, tarot and spectral cards edit the deck, so the deck itself is reshaped in play
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийInterest-based economy rewards saving money, creating constant spend-versus-save tension
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийAppeals to non-roguelike fans: reviewers called it a roguelike for people who do not like roguelikes
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCultural crossover reach: free Friends of Jimbo cosmetic packs (Witcher 3, Slay the Spire, Stardew Valley, etc.) and a cameo in a Black Mirror episode
Спорные моменты
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийWhether higher stakes are satisfying challenge (risk and planning) or just RNG tedium; some love Gold Stake, others call it the game's weakest part
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийIs it deep strategy or a shallow dopamine machine? Critics praise layered systems while some Steam negatives call it not that deep
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийThe addictive design: celebrated as pure fun by most, described as manipulative or guilt-inducing by a minority
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDeveloper cadence: praised for avoiding crunch, but some players are frustrated by the delayed 1.1 update
Повторы и неудобства
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийGrinding stakes: players say one deck across all stakes, times 15 decks, means dozens of hours; one estimate cited 72 wins for the remaining decks' middle stakes
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийGold Stake and above described as a slot-machine grind of rerolling the shop and restarting until a good joker appears
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийRestarting repeatedly on hard challenge decks when shops offer no scoring jokers early
- Оригинальный текст · Английский100% completion and some achievements are seen as requiring RNG luck more than mastery
Ожидаемые улучшения
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCross-platform progression sync (promised on a roadmap per Steam reviewers, still requested)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийA way to curate the joker pool or banish unwanted jokers to fight dilution
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийRework higher stakes and challenge decks so they demand skill and adaptation rather than more RNG and restarts
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийReduce the grind of unlocking every stake on every deck (15 decks, many stakes)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийMore frequent content updates and communication about the delayed 1.1 update; the Matador joker and Blue Stake tweaks were previewed
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийBetter balance of boss blinds, since a few are seen as run-killers with no time to pivot
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLaunched Feb 20, 2024 on PC and quickly became a breakout hit (over $1M in the first 8 hours and 1M copies in the first month, 5M+ by January 2025 per Wikipedia). Steam revenue estimator puts gross revenue at about $95M (Boxleiter-style estimate, not audited) and the Steam-owner estimate at 2-5M. Mobile launched Sept 2024 and Nintendo Switch 2 version Feb 2026; Metacritic platform scores are 90 (PC, PS5, Switch) and 95 (Xbox). Controversies: PEGI raised it to 18+ for gambling imagery (later appealed to 12+ in Feb 2025), and YouTube age-restricted many Balatro videos in March 2025. Patch 1.0.1c made the game easier. The promised 1.1 update slipped out of 2025 and the dev says it will be done when it is done. Steam page shows ongoing strong review scores through 2026.

Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTier list Part 2 (2024)
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийBalatro is a solo-developed poker-themed deck-building roguelike that exploded in popularity seemingly out of nowhere. He argues the hype is justified: it is extremely simple to understand yet strategically deep, and it is intensely satisfying thanks to multiplicative score scaling. He recommends it to nearly anyone and places it in S tier. His main reservation is that it is currently unbalanced, though a joker-rebalancing update was imminent.
Что хвалит автор
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийAmong the simplest deck builders: few keywords, quick poker tutorial, no poker knowledge needed
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийSimple mechanics combined with deep strategy, which he sees as the best kind of design
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийExtremely satisfying multiplicative combos and huge exploding numbers
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийFast deck changes, frequent discards, and quick access to jokers make every run differ early
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийRewards game-breaking builds without making them trivial, since you must understand the mechanics
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийNormal difficulty goes effectively infinite so you can keep scaling until the game catches up
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийQuick-paced runs that are easy to restart over and over
Проблемы, отмеченные автором
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCurrently pretty unbalanced, with lots of tweaking still possible
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийSome runs feel normal and unremarkable unless you find and plan around a build
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийScore beyond the target gives no extra reward, so huge numbers are purely for fun
Наблюдения о дизайне
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийPoker hands as the core deck-building twist, making it approachable to anyone
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийExponential multiplier scaling as a central satisfaction engine
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийEndless mode on normal difficulty means players chase breaking the game rather than higher difficulties
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDesign lesson: approachability plus strategic depth drove its broad appeal
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTop 10 of 2024 (#1)
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийBalatro is a poker-based deck-building roguelike where you play poker hands to beat score targets across eight antes, modifying your deck, upgrading hands and collecting Jokers. He calls it simple to learn but hard to master, and names it his favorite roguelike of the year, placing it at number one. He especially values the variety of builds, the earned feeling of a powerful run, and a well-balanced endless mode with huge numbers.
Что хвалит автор

- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийExponential score growth is implemented well and stays balanced despite many ways to multiply points
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийAudio-visual feedback is very satisfying: the point-counting sound and the score catching fire at high numbers

Проблемы, отмеченные автором
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийReaching huge scores requires luck plus a lot of game knowledge

Наблюдения о дизайне
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийPoker deck-builder hybrid where Jokers act as passive abilities driving build variety
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийExponential growth is notoriously hard to balance in roguelikes, yet Balatro handles it better than anything he has seen
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийEndless mode that is genuinely fun, with achievements still unlockable
