Very open ended in terms of wincons and approaches. It's a very clean deckbuilder with some LLM-code era gaming jank/bugs. Nothing prohibitive so far though. I will say that when you go truly infinite, it lags to all hell. Needs serious optimization that I don't expect to come, because again, we're in the burn and turn LLM-assisted code era of indie gaming.

It's the second best game of the year

So much content! It really nails that 'one more run' factor. There are some performance issues when things get silly. I had a run go till I was scoring ~10^33 points with >700 animals in my deck but I had to give up on it because it was taking upwards of 15 minutes to resolve some effects (feeding snacks that also get fed to every animal in my deck), some of that was animations that could probably be cut down a bit but for a lot of it the game appeared frozen (probably while it looped through the deck applying the effects).

This game is one of the few balatro imitators that actually feels like a worthy successor. The design feels like it follows the mantra of "if everything is broken, nothing is" that a lot of folks love, every game piece feels absolutely incredible. It's clean, it's simple, it's to the point, and satisfying in the number go up way you'd expect, I can certainly recommend this game to anyone who loves roguelites.

Satisfying Number go up sim. Im particularly fond of the animal art and the sounds associated with clicking on them.
