My Take on Balatro in Minecraft! There are many "Jokers" you can use and try to put up a new highscore. Get new Items from the Shop after each Round.

The Goal is to reach each Round Requirement. You lose if you have no Items left. The Round Requirement multiplies after each Round. Scoring Items will be removed.
