Luck Be A Landlord is a thrilling game where luck is everything. As the player, you have one coin left and your landlord is knocking at your door. You insert the coin into a slot machine and hope for the best - it's a roguelite game which means each time is different. You can add symbols and items to the machine to create interesting build strategies. With a terrible landlord to defeat and a dog to pet, this game is a must-play for anyone who loves a challenge.
