Balatro dev: Talked with PEGI and they do not see anything wrong Balatro being rated 18+, nor with EA sports FC (and similar games) having a 3+ rating

Sounds like grounds for a defamation suit to me considering his stated opinions on gambling.
In the meantime we can start guessing which side has more money to hire lawyers
As someone who never planned on playing Balatro, and was kind of getting tired of seeing it on my feed the way I got tired of helldivers 2 stuff right after release.
I would happily toss a tenner to the dev for a lawyer over this.
It's a really good game. As a mobile game, it's honestly up there with Stardew Valley. They are the only two mobile games I know of that check all the boxes. They are actually good games, there are no ads or micro transactions, and they're infinitely playable.
Slay the spire, slice and dice, dicey dungeons are also up there as mobile games.
I was just about to mention Slice and Dice. The new patch had been great for balance!
I would probably never play on PC. Was considering getting the mobile port but my phone doesn't support it apparently...
I want to just add my list of digital boardgames here lol excellent, real games. no ad farms, no crap.
Pay a couple dollars and download a rules PDF for the boardgame and away you go. Some of these are big games that it would be worth playing on PC or watching videos about first.
I own:
Good game but Haven't played digitally; on wishlist:
Don't buy it. It's too addictive
