Games like these are only fun when you get crazy stuff that pops off. The rest of the time, its just kinda dull. Lot of effort put into looking like balatro but missed the charm that made it a hit. Hope you keep polishing it.

Initially seems super fun. My only gripe is that it hangs between screen transitions, like to the store and stuff. Please break this off into a thread or something. At 30 fps, there should be plenty of time to do what you need.

Been waiting for this game to come out for a little while, and it's well worth the wait. Obviously very Balatro inspired, but unlike most games which rely on their inspiration to be familiar and fun, this game really does a good job being creative (e.g. mini games in the shop to decide luck based purchases). Incredibly in depth settings menu as well, so you can maximize the hell out of all the satisfying effects. The sound track is an absolute banger as well. 10/10 will probably end up addicted. Edited

Like Balatro but with chess! Been eagerly awaiting this release since the steam nextfest demo and was pleased to see it released on Android same day as steam. The graphic style and vibe is very similar to Balatro but unique enough to not be a rip off. I've played many other chess roguelikes on steam and Android but this is the best one by far. If your phone can handle it I recommend bumping the frame rate up to 120 FPS. I put many hours into the steam demo and couldn't recommend this game enough Edited

Baru liris langsung beli, memang udah nunggu sih semenjak nonton orang di YouTube yang main waktu Beta test. Satu jam pertama ga berhenti main, nagih bet. Ada 8 boss, tiap 1 permainan ada 5 game tiap mau lawan boss harus nyelesain 5 stage dulu baru lawan boss, dan nama boss nya pun ngambil dari pemain profesional catur aslinya, kayak hikaru, magnus dll. pokoknya yang suka catur+balatro harus beli sih.
