Common complaints

• Touch controls accessibility bug prevents disabled players from playing
• Game bypasses silent mode, forcing manual audio muting
• Gambits feel generic with limited synergies and heavy RNG
• Missing speed multiplier and gameplay animations slow down replayability

What real reviews say

★★★★ Fun game It’s fun but it’s trying too hard to be Balatro. The background, music, graphics, everything is so Balatro coded that I thought they were the same developers. I’ll update my review if they update their style but it’s just lazy and annoying. It’s a good game, you don’t have to copy balatro

★★★ Good game but GET YOUR OWN IDENTITY It’s fun but it’s trying too hard to be Balatro. The background, music, graphics, everything is so Balatro coded that I thought they were the same developers. I’ll update my review if they update their style but it’s just lazy and annoying. It’s a good game, you don’t have to copy balatro

★★★★★ One of the BEST roguelikes ever Better than I thought it was going to be, lots of fun. If you like chess or want to make chess fun..l just buy it. What a steal! Worth 3 times the asking price!
