    Anyone play this game? The video on steam doesn’t really give me an idea of how to play, it just shows a poker hand and the player clicks on a bunch of jokers?

      its a poker-themed roguelike deckbuilder. sort of like slay the spire but with playing cards. jokers give effects and theres tarot cards, planet cards, spectral cards and so on and your goal is to get more and more poker chips through chaining things together or adding effects, playing different strategies. its really fun. its rather addictive once you get going

        I like roguelikes and deckbuilders, and I LOVE slay the spire but I’m pretty ambivalent on poker. I’ve had my eye on this but is it just “poker but a little quirky” or would it be worth my time as a non poker fan?

          I’ve never played a single game of poker IRL and I have 50+ hours in Balatro. It’s good.
