Games where the numbers go up

Tonight on GeekNights, we consider games where the numbers go up. Like Balatro or Slay the Spire or 9 Kings or Vampire Survivors. These games might intersect with deeper societal problems related to the signifier and the signified and the trap of hyperreality. In the news, the NAACP calls for a boycott of southern public school athletics due to their extreme gutting of voting rights, Ferrari launches the Luce, and nobody is booking rooms for the World Cup.
