Cities Skylines meets Balatro in the absorbing roguelike city builder Combolands

Crux Games has unveiled Combolands: Roguelike Citybuilder, a new island-based city builder with run-based progression.

The game blends Cities: Skylines-style placement planning with Balatro-like combo chains, adjacency bonuses, and rerolls.

Players build toward growing population goals by chaining effects and unlocking upgrades across each run.

Its Steam demo is already drawing attention for offering a fresh and highly absorbing take on the genre.
