Great Game That Needs a Bit of Work
Changing my review because the problems I had previously have been fixed by updates.
In general the game has come a long way since release and that’s always awesome because it means the dev actually cares. The newer balancing, trinkets, synergies, etc. make the game way more re-playable than it previously was.
The only thing I find myself wanting for are more trinket synergies. They’re a huge reason why the game is more enjoyable but there are only a small handful of them at the moment which makes build variation sort of daunting after a while.

Response from developer
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! I agree that some mechanics and trinket descriptions need to be clearer. I’m working on improving tutorials, help text, and item wording so players don’t have to learn as much through trial and error. The card-copy item is good specific feedback. I’ll update that description to make the order much clearer. Thanks again for taking the time to explain!
Needs price reduction
The game is good and I know developer needs funds too but for a mobile game it should have a price reduction of 60% currently it’s 499INR and the game is not terraria quality wise so price should be reduced.
Unreal Good
Quite possibly the most fun game I’ve played on mobile. Perfectly made, and the team is doing a great job at balancing, updating, and keeping it fun.
It’s addicting, easy to pick up, and hard to master. Great game all around and excited to see the game continue to develop with new items and more!

A fun and well-built game
Beautiful, easy to get started, interesting mechanics and progression systems. I had a good time playing this!
I think the difficulty could be bumped up a little after a few stages, but that’s just my personal preferences speaking.

Este jogo é FENOMENAL.
Bizarramente viciante, lembra Balatro mas com a jogabilidade muito mais divertida. Parabéns aos desenvolvedores.
love it
love this game so much and im very picky w games, just let us choose background themes maybe
Love it and
Why did you remove the landscape view for iPad? I can’t stand having to turn it.
Fun but unbalanced
Fun game but you lose unfairly a lot because of bad card deals and nothing you can do. Mostly about luck
One of the best games I have played
Even without knowing anything about poker, you still can play this game just go online and remember your favourite scoring and go crazy and build up your op trinket set focusing on just that. The only thing I am sad about is the lack of levels even if I purchase the full game but overall, just the free trial itself was awesome. A must try.

Few changes could be made
First of all, great game😁.
Now for my balance change rants
There should be more rank modifying cards
Amp is treated weirdly
Magnet sucks almost all the time
Similar to the other poker rougelite, Pairs are overpowered
There should be an option to transfer progress between devices

Fun Balatro Clone
While heavily inspired by Balatro, it manages to standout with unique gameplay and fun variances on the scoring system. Pokermancer separates itself further with its own challenges and inherent difficulties.
Edit: Going to set this one down until it gets smoothed out. Changes are being constantly pushed out and it’s bothersome. I understand seeking to improve the game, but it’s disruptive when it’s done so frequently. Item descriptions didn’t need changed either. Orthogonal can be deduced by the item’s use. Descriptions are too long and wordy now.

Thanks for the feedback! Things as of 1.0.20 and now 1.1.0 (which adds new content) haven’t changed much recently. I appreciate your patience with the rapid changes and redesigns. I got a lot of feedback that people weren’t sure what “orthogonal” meant off-hand so I changed it, but I understand your frustration with the wordiness.
A Diamond in the Rough
They don’t make games like this much anymore. A reasonably priced game with incredible art, gameplay, AND you can try before you buy? It reminds me of the early days of mobile gaming in the best way.
It’s a superbly executed twist on Balatro’s gameplay and the fact that I can play it one handed adds a lot of convenience.
Honestly just download it and give it a try, if you like Balatro you’re going to love this!

Just balatro
Didn’t differentiate itself too much. At least has a different style. Kinda shameless but still fun I guess. I mean balatro is fun so…

Gonna be a classic 🃏
Great little game!
Fun, challenging, nice UI

A lot of potential!
I can tell the dev put a lot of thought into the game, and the last update was much appreciated. It runs very smooth, and I love the animations, sounds and trinket combinations! I would like to have a bit more definition (less pixelated) in the trinkets since they are so small and hard to tell apart. The trinkets are the coolest part, so I hope they get the attention they deserve. I can live with them as they fit the theme really well.

It’s good
It’s good, kind of a mix-mash of poker and boggle, nothing too groundbreaking but a strong quality game.
I love the game and would like to give a piece of feedback
I love this game and I like that it’s a unique take and style to the mechanics of balatro without it feeling forced… the inspiration is clear but the game is very unique
But please for the love of all that is holy add Flush House! I have had so many opportunities to use it and it only counts as a full house despite being the same suit! You could even do a wild flush house if you wanted but I NEED it more then SpongeBob needs that glass of water!
Thanks for listening to my Ted talk!

Thank you for the feedback! I had considered adding it, but since I already had 3 other extra hands, I didn’t want to overshadow the original poker rules with too many made up hands. Thank you for playing!
Has become my most played game.
Ive played Balatro and Slay The Spire for years. Just found this a month ago and I find myself playing it more than Balatro and STS combined. Really fun and intuitive if you know a little bit about poker. Can’t recommend it enough
