"Looks like we found out who the real joker is": Balatro dev reveals one Joker card has been hiding a revolutionary secret all along, because they "thought it was pretty funny"

Balatro Joker card.

Balatro fans are currently in shambles as it's been revealed that one of the less exciting Joker cards has been hiding a helpful Easter egg this whole time, that's only been spotted after one player went searching through the game's code. 

The Joker in question is Misprint – a common card that, on the surface, simply provides a random multiplier between 0 and 23. However, it turns out that its purpose goes much further than that, and despite what its name would suggest, it's no mistake. As highlighted in a YouTube video by content creator BelenosBear, it turns out that the text that flickers on the card's description actually reveals the card you're going to draw next when you're playing a blind, helping you cheat.
