Break—and remake—the rules in this acclaimed card battler game.

Know the rules of poker? If so, you’re halfway to mastering this brilliant roguelike deck-builder, Balatro, which offers its own innovative twist on traditional card games.

What we love about Balatro: Playing familiar poker hands, then enhancing them with powerful joker cards that add a strategic edge, such as one that treats all your red and black cards as the same suit. (Flushes made easy in your card battles!) With new cards to collect each round in this engaging card battler, anything is possible in every gaming session.

Pay attention to the perk you receive for skipping a blind deal in Balatro. It may reward you with a joker—or better yet, reroll the Boss Blind’s tricky ability.

Quick tip for winning in Balatro: Don’t invest too heavily in one hand type—you never know when a Boss Blind (like “playing a Two Pair sets money to $0”) might disrupt your strategy. Stay alert and adapt your tactics!

Meet the creator of Balatro: Balatro was developed by LocalThunk, a Canada-based game studio. Influenced by the poker-inspired Cantonese card game Big Two, LocalThunk refined Balatro’s gameplay loop over two and a half years of dedicated development.
