Luck be a Landlord

description Luck be a Landlord Overview

Luck be a Landlord is a roguelike deck-building game developed by TrampolineTales and released in 2023. The player repeatedly spins a slot machine to earn enough coins for escalating rent payments, adding symbols whose interactions gradually shape each run's strategy. Despite using the imagery of gambling, its central system is deterministic collection-building: success depends on managing symbol combinations, limited space, and item-based effects rather than wagering real money.
