Comments on Balatro for Android

★★★★★ Yossarian · Oct 22, 2026
So far, I would have to say that this is my favorite mobile game (or at least, one of the top 3 mobile games I have ever played on Android.
★★★★★ Primal · Oct 31, 2026
Balaton is a game I can come back no matter what when I'm a terrible mood and just gamble my troubles away. This game is not just addicting, it's an experience that you gotta try out for yourself in order to understand why it's so popular. From the soothing rhythm of the Main Theme to the mystical vibe of the Arcane Pack to the echo depths of the Celestial pack. This game has it all. #BalatroIsLife
★★★★★ SeanyB36 · Oct 30, 2026
If you even have a slight interest in deck building games this game is fun you
★☆☆☆☆ Diego Scheuermann · Oct 26, 2026
The game is good, but it has some technical issues. For example: when it syncs with play games it tends to get stuck draining battery even if you dismiss the notification.
★★☆☆☆ Bryan Nutt · Oct 9, 2026
I mean it's fun but like.... the mechanics that say your cards are face down might as well just say 'your run ends' and save you from actually wasting your time playing it. Like the ones where your initial hand is faced down is fine but beyond that, you either win first hand (good luck), or it is an anti fun un interactive way for your run to end
