Watch “I made SOLATRO: A Free Balatro style card game,” a how-to-play guide for Solatro from TechDweeb on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by TechDweeb on YouTube:

What if Balatro and Solitaire had a baby? And that baby was raised by a dweeb? That’s Solatro! In this video I’ll show you how to play it, and you can grab the free rulebook to try it yourself!

They seem like a different set of graphics compared to the deck I showed in my video, but I bet they're way higher quality. Sadly shipping to me in Canada is crazy expensive so I won't be able to share them in a video, but here's the link if you want to get a set of those: https://www.fangamer.com/products/balatro-playing-cards?srsltid=AfmBOoq0NNzbGuUpc7QnC4Z3hD2IUIXFiLhEjEX2wGI-EgHvKgwhzXY_ ╔═────────────── ◎ ──────────────═╗ 🧙‍♂️ TECHDWEEB // LVL 99 SOLITAIRE WORLD CHAMP ╚═────────────── ◎ ──────────────═╝ You are now under the protection of the Dweeb Ward.

About Solatro, from BoardGameGeek:

Most people love Balatro, and EVERYONE loves Solitaire (obviously), so here's a cheeky way to play a SOLO version of that addictive indie computer card game with just a regular deck of cards, Solitaire style, all by yourself on a Friday night!
