Cities Skylines meets Balatro in the excellent new roguelike city builder Combolands

Quite a few developers have tried to recreate LocalThunk's phenomenal success with the roguelike poker game Balatro . Some tend to overlook what makes Balatro enjoyable . Others are just flat-out unethical. Combolands: Roguelike Citybuilder from developer Crux Games isn't either of those. It takes the best parts of Balatro 's roguelike nature and combo chains and mashes them with the kind of strategic placement you need to succeed in Cities: Skylines to make something that, based on the current Steam demo, is wholly absorbing and uniquely satisfying. source https://www.polygon.com/combolands-demo-preview-impressions/
