We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.
Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-03 · 30 entries checked · 20 flagged · 38 issues confirmed · 20 corrected · 18 still open
Joker — Entry claims Jokers first appear after Ante 0, but runs begin at Ante 1
Joker — Entry implies acquisition before Ante 1 is possible, but the first shop occurs only after completing Ante 1
Chariot — The Chariot adds +1 Mult to a Joker's base multiplier stat, not +4.
Chariot — The Chariot upgrades a specific Joker instance for the current run only; it does not permanently upgrade the player's deck collection or persist across runs.
Strength — The entry incorrectly identifies 'Strength' as a Tarot Card in Balatro; Strength is actually a Tarot Card that appears in the game's deck of cards to be drawn or used via other means (like the 'Tarot' Joker), but it does not function as a consumable item in th
Strength — The description of Strength's gameplay effect ('upgrading a random card's rank') is factually incorrect for the actual game mechanics; no such card exists in Balatro that performs this function during the shop phase.
Hanged Man — The entry incorrectly states players 'battle against the Jokers' in the Lore section; in Balatro canon, Jokers are allies/tools used to defeat Blinds and Decks, not enemies.
Death — The entry claims the Death Tarot Card allows players to 'discard up to 3 cards from their hand', but its actual in-game effect is to destroy a random Joker in your possession.
The Tarot Card — The entry incorrectly states 'The Fool removing a random card from the deck'; Balatro canon specifies it removes a random card from your hand.
The Hand — The entry incorrectly categorizes 'The Hand' under Factions & Group, as Balatro canon contains no factions or groups.
The Hand — Planet Cards description is factually imprecise and truncated; they specifically upgrade Poker Hand Levels (Chips/Mult) rather than generic values.
The Fool — The entry claims a 'pool of 21 cards' includes The Fool, but Magician through World comprises exactly 21 cards excluding The Fool (the total Major Arcana count in Balatro is 22).
