Balatro inside CloverPit: every spin scores as a poker hand, Chips x Mult, and real Balatro Jokers turn up as charms in the shop.
You're in CloverPit's pit, pulling its slot machine against the debt deadline, and Balatro is in there with you, read from your own Balatro install.
Every spin is a poker hand. CloverPit's patterns are rescored as Balatro hands and pay Chips × Mult, with Balatro's own hand values:
Spin bonuses. Two pairs in one spin pay a Two Pair bonus, a Three of a Kind with a Pair of another symbol pays a Full House, and three patterns of one suit pay a Flush. Symbols are cards: Cherry and Seven are Hearts, Diamond and Treasure are Diamonds, Clover is Clubs, Lemon and Bell are Spades.
18 Balatro Jokers as charms. Joker, Greedy, Lusty, Wrathful, Gluttonous, Jolly, Zany, Mad, Crazy, Droll, Sly, Wily, Clever, Half Joker, Abstract Joker, Even Steven, Odd Todd and Supernova show up in CloverPit's charm shop next to its own charms. Each wears its real Balatro card art on CloverPit's card model and does what it does in Balatro. CloverPit's own charms still work, so you can stack both.
Balatro's scoring pop-up. A blue Chips box and a red Mult box pop up in Balatro's pixel font as each pattern scores, with the Jokers that triggered beside them and Balatro's chip and mult sounds. CloverPit's music and atmosphere stay as they are.
Your language. Joker names, rules and hand names come from Balatro's own translation for the language CloverPit is set to.
Single player. You need CloverPit and Balatro installed. Press Play: Melty installs BepInEx and the mod into CloverPit and points it at your Balatro. Nothing from either game is shipped; the card art, numbers, text, sounds and font are read from your own copy.
