Странная игра. Как рогалик она и работает и не работает. Интересно строить продажи, вечный рандом из-за нехватки денег, разные карты и контракты (модификаторы с 1+ и 1-) но тот факт что слоты для продажи вечно в разном количестве и в разной форме может сыграть так, что ты выигрываешь самые жесткие ставки и не паришься, а потом просто не один из твоих предметов нормально не помещается на доске потому что она расположена в каком-то хаотичном порядке и ты просто сливаешься. Это даже близко не Балатро. На один раз пойдёт, но смысл рогаликов именно в том чтобы быть не на один раз. В эту игру ты возвращаешься через не хочу. В общем не советую.

On balance, I've enjoyed my time with the game, and I would give it a soft recommendation if you can get it at a good discount. That said, I find long-term appeal to be limited, because there just aren't enough interesting or strategic decisions, exacerbated by the lack of clarity on some key game mechanics. Typically, RNG is utterly dominant in whether you can get off the ground. Either it gives you modifiers you can work with, or it doesn't. Either it gives you decent options in the shop, or it doesn't. On most runs, it's hard to feel like you're really planning, strategising, or optimising, when in fact 90% of what you are doing is simply taking the only feasible steps that the RNG metes out to you. Then, if you get some luck in the early rounds, it often feels like you can sail through several "cycles" without needing to give it a moment's thought... But when you get to the final boss, RNG becomes even more decisive. The enemy will randomly nerf a swathe of the game mechanics, so your scoring can easily drop by several orders of magnitude in a single swoop. On the other hand, you might barely be impacted. That's RNG for you. As I said, there's also a serious issue in how opaque this all can be. In a game all about getting massive scores, there's such a scarcity of information about how scoring actually functions. The nature of scoring operations and additional effects isn't given remotely enough explanation, in some aspects pretty much nothing at all. So, if your scores are indeed tanked by the final boss, it feels unreasonable that you often only have a half-formed notion of precisely what went wrong. Doesn't sound like much of a recommendation! Well, I did say it was only a soft one... But I stand by it! I had real fun for a decent number of hours there, trying to sell my way to victory through this bleak and creepy setting. The vibe is great, and when you manage to cobble together a decent scoring engine, it's always hard not to be gratified by seeing the numbers ping again and again as you rack up some seriously massive scores. Overall, it's a shame, because I feel like with some tweaking, balancing, and most importantly clearing up the ambiguous scoring, this could be a real gem. All the same, as it is, this can still provide some entertainment, and is worth a look if you're a fan of the style.

The game is very simple, but one you figure out the gamble it gets crazy satisfying. I may try to get all the achievements just for fun.
