Balatro Meets Luck Be A Landlord in Chaotic Cooking Roguelike

Pick ingredients off a conveyor belt, drag them around a plate and try to unlock point combos while hoping your incredible, edible abominations pass muster with an idiosyncratic cast of anthropomorphic guests. Omelet You Cook is a tight, simple, rewarding roguelike that awards points based on how ingredients are arranged on an omelet according to an ever more intricate cascade of scoring rules.

The spatial strategizing and arrangement synergies give the game a Luck Be a Landlord flavor, while points that blaze more intensely the better you do and an in-game economy for purchasing items that bestow special perks bring a Balatro feel. Still, the game is more than the sum of its parts, with elements of cozy sims and chillout puzzle games and patrons reminiscent of Animal Crossing villagers.

After Steam Early Access in early 2025, nearly two dozen updates and seven months later the February 1.0 update added different modes and the option to play turn-based if the moving conveyor belt proved too stressful.
