“Fight Your Crippling Gambling Addiction! I just realized the game's name, Dungeons & Degenerate Gamblers (DnDG), is a riff on Dungeons & Dragons (DnD). Anyway, this is a roguelike poker card battler similar to Balatro,…”
“I play one card and stand. My opponent burns half, steals on, swaps with a coin, and deals double damage, ending my run I restart and beat them within 1 move I then die to a dog Great game”
“One of my favourite roguelikes of all time! It has enough variety and stuff to discover to be endlessly entertaining, while also not being too complex or hard to learn! It's easy enough to have fun playing, but still…”

“Best version of blackjack I've ever played. Mixing tarot cards and uniquely created cards with the regular deck is very good and the fact that you can find foil versions of the cards adds even more. I have nothing but…”

“Feels more like Slay the Spire than Balatro but definitely a mix of both. I think the the difficulty curve isn't too bad but don't expect to win immediately or every run since it's so luck-oriented. I think my first win…”

“blackjack version of baltro, not as in depth though. that being said, the bouncer is ridiculous”
“Great fun for a while. If there's traditional roguelike depth here it sure doesn't feel like it, it is literally blackjack after all. Imo the best part of the game is just seeing what each individual card does. It's…”

“Good game, i want more cards though”
“Finally Finished the game. not 100% since that requires winning a game with all cards at least once and I'm out of time. GOATED game, better than balatro. 10/10 would recommend, Hope they add more decks, make a deck…”

“If you want a single player blackjack game with fantasy and unconventional cards that manipulate the rules, this is ok. But for me the charm was short-lived.”

— a player, Steam review · 9 hrs played“It's passable, but not sure if it'll be very compelling if you played plenty of othe drafters. I kind of regret forcing myself to complete it, hoping the higher difficulties would make it more interesting, but that moment never came. It's just a tad too easy, even on the highest…”
