Tonight on GeekNights, we review Balatro (2024). From LocalThunk and published by Playstack, it's a roguelike deckbuilder in the vein of Slay the Spire, but in Video Poker. It's good. In the news, PAX East was all right but it's still a ghost town when the expo hall closes, the Rangers are top of the NHL coming into the playoffs, and you may not have played Crime No Crime before (but you should).
So I bought Balatro on Friday after work. Over the ensuing weekend, I proceeded to sink 20 hours into the game. I might have a problem.
