Luck be a Landlord

This is a fun little game if you can get it for cheap. I seem to remember that I got this when it first came out for something like 2 dollars. That's what my recommendation is based on. This game is fun at first, gives the satisfaction of getting new stuff (symbols and to a lesser extent items) and watching number go up. There's not a lot of replayability though. There's very few symbols that have the sort of scaling you need to make it through the late game, and symbol removal is so limited that you can't afford to take too many useless symbols. Lots of symbols have one specific item that makes them okay, but it's unlikely that you'll see that item. If you try to 100 percent this game, be prepared for a long grind where you click through menus looking for the same few symbols run after run after run. (At least there's a skip animations option but it's still a grind.) My recommendation is that you wishlist this game and pick it up if and when it goes on sale.

Communist propaganda.

No me gusto. Tal vez por el estilo de juego, el prejuicio de los gráficos, pero he jugado juegos con gráficos peores, pero este no me cierra mucho. He jugado juegos como Balatro, Dungeons & Degenerate Gamblers, Aces & Adventures, Dice & Fold, etc. que son juegazos todos estos en su nicho o estilo. Que quiero decir con esto, que no importan los gráficos solo me atrapan las mecánicas y/o estilo de juego. Se también sé que no le di mucho tiempo, una o dos partidas, nada mas, pero es que no se si pueda llegar a tener mucho más para dar, al menos para mi. Es una lastima, porque he visto comentarios de que le gusto a mucha gente, lo vi en un par de vídeos, muy por arriba no con mucha atención porque quería probarlo yo en algún momento, pero no gusto nada, el estilo de juego, gráficamente, la historia (que es nula, y mucha veces no importa). En fin, no me convencía demasiado desde el comienzo que lo compré, tal vez sea por eso...

Fun 10-20 hour game. Have more control than you would think at first with slot machines, compared to cloverpit. This one you have more control because you actually pick what symbols go in the spins. Like adding cards to a deck. Having more control outside the spins makes it feel less like gambling and pure rng. Similar to balatro.

「何かしたいけど、何もしたくない」 人生の大半を占める、そのような虚無な時間を埋めることができるゲーム。 ゲーム？いや、呪いか救いと言ったほうがいいかもしれない。 全フロアクリアしても気づいたらこれを開いている。 ただ無心にスピンしている。 ふと気が付けばまたこれを回しているのは呪い。 それだけ多くの時間を費やせるものを出会えたのは救い。 狙ったコンボが出た時の快感は何物にも代えがたい。

A great deckbuilder game, comparable to Crop Rotation which I also greatly enjoyed. Luck be a Landlord (LbaL) has a lot more RNG to it, which is appropriate considering the slot machine mechanism for determining placements of symbols. 5 columns with 4 rows totals 20 symbols displayed, and certain symbols have adjacency bonuses to other symbols to raise more money to pay your ever rising rent costs. External items can improve symbols gold production too, helping steer the player into more focused strategies. Rerolls help seek key pieces to finishing a strategy, and removals can get rid of low performing symbols to keep money production maximized. Sadly, once you defeat your landlord, all challenge is gone. I suppose there is some excitement in seeing how much money you can produce a turn, but it feels purely sandbox. Once you figure out a couple of good builds or strategies to go for even rank 20 starts to become a trivial challenge. If you're looking for a fun deckbuilder with more RNG than strategy I think Luck be a Landlord is a great fit. I have had a lot of fun even though it is a little more simple compared to other titles in the genre.
