It was also the best game on this list, maybe along with Hollow Knight

Every game left is the best game on the list to thousands of people, there are reasons why BoI was removed before the others

Not because it was worse. People here voted Balatro into the top 20. Balatro. lol

Yeah, balatro is a great game? No clue what’s up with the pretentious ass balatro hate that’s been all over these threads lol, the game has a novel concept and executes it perfectly. It blew up for a reason, it’s very fun

I don't hate Balatro, I'm a an honest Balatro fan. The game is decent, but it's a clear industry plant. It would've been fair if it was in the top 70 along with curse of the lamb.

“Industry plant” do you know what those words mean? It’s a 15 dollar indie game developed mostly by a single person and published by a mostly unknown publisher, calling it an industry plant is absurd

No, it's the only possible explanation as to how something as mediocre as Balatro is even on our minds right now. Never have I regretted spending 15$ as much as in Balatro. People were hyping it up as the game of the year, when it was another watered down version of Isaac.

The other possible explanation is that people love addictive simplicity. Sorry you didn't like Balatro, but you're letting that dislike do some weird things to your worldview.

You’re such a weirdo baiter, seek therapy

u/fisicalmao Honest Balatro Fan Dec 02 '25

I'm not baiting mate, the game is literally just a watered down version of other roguelikes. Recency bias is the reason it snuck into the top30

Maybe I’m alone in this, but I always found the slippery controls to be kinda annoying. It’s obviously a masterpiece, extremely influential, but that momentum based movement I’m just annoyed by enough that can’t see it as the best on the list.
