Agreed. Very addicting gameplay but also way better experience on mobile. 9.99 in the iOS App Store.

If you value your life, don't get it. Once it gets you, it will consume your soul.

If I'm standing around waiting somewhere, then it's nice having it on mobile.

I own it on the Playstation and I own it on mobile. It's not best suited for mobile. It's ported to mobile and the text is small. Controls are also less ideal.

I got hooked on it on the Playstation, then I got it on mobile (android) and was disappointed. For mobile, I much prefer using the Playstation Portal and connecting to the PS5.

Anyway, I have logged over 300 hours on this between Switch and mobile. I cannot imagine playing this on a TV screen, it's not that kind of game. PlayStation is one of the clunkiest formats available for this game.

If you've had PS+, this was one of the free games last year. It's good on PS5.

Agree, I own it in three different formats, and playing it on Xbox is the best

Highly disagree, text is fine on Galaxy Ultra 23 and the touchscreen is the best way to play

I own it on my Apple devices - iPad and iPhone. Balatro is indeed best suited on touch screen devices. It is very satisfying. Using a controller is cumbersome.
