This crossover is amazing.

Just wanted a nice post about this crossover to be out there so i did it myself.

Beautifully designed, Its nice to have the slot machine from shipwrecked back spiritually, The minigame is very fun for what is worth as its very short, probably making it anymore complex would have made it tiresome to do on repeat to grind the cards so i am fine as it is. Maybe i would have prefered the jimbo machine to be a little bit more obscure to find, like maybe you have to solve a little puzzle in orther to make it apear or function, but that could probably get away from the clasic dst charm of "Getting distracted by random set piece" so again, perfectly fine as it is and completly ejoyable.

Now, the cards, i love it, Many games have inbuilt card/board games that you can play and they are part of the world etc, and i always wondered how that would translate in dst. And i got the more Dst answer posible, An actual deck of cards with all the functionality for you to play any game you want. Its super organic and i cant wait to use them in multiplayer servers, so much potential.

I love this mini update inmensly, thanks for the great work klei.

I'm loving the card game so far, my only complaint is I wish the cards were burnable. I'll probably collect 52 for a full regular deck, but after than I wish there was an easy way to get rid of them, I know I can put them in a furnace/make a mega stack, but wish there was an easy way to make the area not so cluttered. Even making the cards auto stack when flipped upside down would be nice.

normally i would burn the day away sitting at base next to a scaled furnace, munching on meatballs because i have nothing else to do

now i can burn the day away WITH gambling

i absolutely agree, i love the new update a lot. theres so many fun little details

the art for the jokers is really good, there's so much charm to them! i really enjoy all of the poses, how everybody has their own jester outfit color scheme, and how some of them even had custom expressions drawn! it makes them all so nice to look at

Honestly? If you want to know my opinion it’s going to get a bit bizarre, but has anyone ever played a game called Book of Demons? Hand of Fate or maybe anything similar to it?? Where you can use collectible playing cards in combat to use unique abilities to help you win (or lose) situations? I mean come on Klei, you don’t put a fully functioning deck of 52 cards in your game, even if it was done for funny crossover event… And NOT think about how those cards could be used in regular gameplay outside of the event.

At this point, DST has all the components to put together a fun RogueLite mode (solo DS adventures) or something like Gorge & Forge, just very unique.. very different ways to play and enjoy the DS franchise.

This is nothing like Hand of Fate or it's sequel. If you literally mean there are cards, bravo.

I just wanted to post this somewhere if it wasn't a known detail for anyone. The new Fool's Crown skin for the Bee Queen Crown makes nearby players laugh at you rather than bow, it's amazing

I wish it was that, but it's missing the entire joke. In Shipwrecked you put in a doubloon to spin the wheel, but it cost sanity, and the more you spun it the more sanity it cost. None of that is present in Together's, it's just a free item dispenser instead of funny gambling addiction humor.

 Okay, but considering the various gimmicky ways to retain sanity in DST that was not possible in Solo DS, I’m pretty sure the Devs just didn’t see a point in adding a Sanity Cost.

You can always build a Sisturn, Or carry a pet fish, or stand randomly in a couple pinecone trees, or build Le Funny Farm for Forget Me Lots & make a nice Tea. If your playing as Wigfrid you can also gain Sanity and Inspiration from riding your FurCow.

If it's so easy to recover sanity what's the point in removing a joke? That doesn't make any sense.

I would ask for that too if wasn't because the story behind balatro and the unfair age calification it received it while true gambling scammy games like gatchas or Fifa gets a low age calification. Adding the gambling addiction joke would feel like justifying such injustice 

At least it spawn enemies if you mess up
