Watch Out for Fireballs! is a game club podcast, focused on retro and non-current games. Every week, we play a game in its entirety, then discuss its merits and flaws at length.

What's more universal than a deck of cards? Balatro takes the basic foundation of a game of poker and twists it into one of the most imaginative and engaging roguelikes this decade. Join us as we indulge in the wonderful design that make this game one of the best of the year, no contest.
