What can I say, really, that I didn’t already say back in July when I prematurely declared Balatro as 2024’s best? The truth is that opinion hasn’t shifted – though if I’m being honest, it wobbled a bit here and there. It’s been a good year, after all – Animal Well, FF7 Rebirth, Astro Bot – Elden Ring DLC, too. But the truth is, all it took was being able to play it more often and in more places to be firmly slapped down from such blasphemous thoughts. Idiot: Balatro is the best game of the year. Don’t doubt it.
