Want a game you can open and run play for "30 mins" and suddenly half your afternoon is gone?
Want to develop a crippling addiction but don't have the money for it?
Need something to remind you what lack of sleep is like?

Balatro has you covered

Honestly an Indie gem. It is a unique twist on the deck building rouge-like genera plus what other games can you say you became a billionaire only to be slaughtered by a guillotine. I find myself coming back to it every so often to kill some time. If you get tired of base game there are also alot of mods in the steam workshop to spice up the game also!

I enjoyed getting cucked in the first one by my friends now I shall be the one doing the cucking!

Easily one of the best casual fighting games in the world... Then again my dog beats me at it...

Really solid game. Has multiple difficulties and makes for a pretty relaxing experience. You can play all the mp3 files you have on your computer and the algorythm actually matches them up pretty well.

Really neat rhythm game. At the moment it is short but from what we have heard from the devs will be getting more levels soon. Honestly as is even tho it only takes 30 mins to beat at max i would easily pay 10 bucks for this but its free and thats really chill.
The mechanics are neat and the music is also pretty dang good and catchy. Look forward to seeing more from this School project turned game.

Really good Free to play game for what it is its fun to play.

A compelling game of choices it hurts your soul when people get hurt or when you are faced with a impossible choice that you dont really wanna make!

I really enjoyed bastion and when this was announced i had really high expectations for it.
I love the semi turn based combat for when things get tight you can think out a stratagy and then execute it instantly at the expense of using your abilities for a few moments.
I am about half way done with it and i can say the story is good.
I find myself looking at every little thing cause im interested in the dailog.
The music is outstanding and i really enjoy the combat.
The artstyle really fits the tone of the game and the way abilities work is amazing.

So i didnt expect much from this game since it is free to play the minute i launched it tho my expectations grew when i saw the Armor Games logo and flashed back to my childhood and i was not dissappointed its a simple dungeoneer with an equally simple progression mechanic. The art is well done and the sounds are definatly on par for what the game aims to achieve its a good time waster.
