"CloverPit is a dark blend of slot machine and roguelike that starts simple but unfolds into surprising depth. It lacks the variety and accessibility of a game like Balatro, yet keeps you hooked with tension, unlocks, and the constant gamble."

"CloverPit seems to be the spiritual successor to Balatro: a roguelite based on gambling, which twists and expands the rules in an ingenious and entertaining way. The title offers hours of gameplay and pure entertainment. After winning a few times, …"
