GAME MECHANICS

Explore game mechanics

Browse possible checks, rewards and settings. What appears in your game depends on your World options.

Source catalog Release v0.1.9fAPWorld version/minimum not declared in its manifest · bundled template requires Archipelago 0.6.1

The released APWorld defines 2,460 possible location entries. The bundled defaults select all 15 decks, White and Red stakes, eight antes, 15 shop checks per selected stake and 100 consumable checks, for 370 default checks. One deck is randomly precollected, so not every deck is initially accessible. The package declares no APWorld version or minimum in its manifest; the YAML template requires Archipelago 0.6.1.

Playing with others

Individual Balatro runs exchange unlocks through Archipelago. The mod does not turn a poker hand into a native shared-game session.

Known scope and limitations

  • Steam edition only. Install Lovely and Steamodded, then the matching BalatroAP files and APWorld; the latest package includes its client library.
  • Connect from the Archipelago profile and back up existing saves. Special slot-name characters may require editing APSettings.json as documented.
  • Start with at least one deck: a public report describes a progression deadlock when no starting deck is available. Avoid custom planet/spectral bundles while their generation failure report remains unresolved.
  • The maintainer still acknowledges possible crashes. Do not assume large gameplay-overhaul mods such as Pokermon are compatible.
  • Linux/Proton requires the documented version.dll override. The bundled Mac library is ARM-only according to an Intel Mac failure report, so broad macOS support is not advertised here.
  • A recent report describes the connection box rejecting the digit zero. This and other open reports are not marked resolved by the January release.

This integration is maintained independently of Panludia. Downloads are provided by its maintainer. Contact the maintainer through the linked repository or support channels.
