A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've really enjoyed Balatro too. My only critique is that I wish that it was a little more balanced in terms of deck/hands vs jokers. Since it's poker based, having some more incentive to chase big hands would be nice...instead, the game pushes you to building out your jokers and playing high cards and pairs - if you want to progress, anyway.

That said, scoring multiple thousand point combos on a high card hand is pretty satisfying.
