How The Family Works
Multiplies your current Mult after additive bonuses. ×Mult compounds with itself — stacking two ×3 jokers gives you ×9 Mult, not +6.
Score calculator: The Family is fully automated by the Balatro Score Calculator. Drop it into a slot and see the chip / mult delta in the breakdown immediately.
Pick or Skip?
Take it when
- ▸You already have a chip and additive-mult base — ×Mult compounds your existing score.
- ▸You are in mid-game (Ante 3-6) and need to break through escalating blind requirements.
Skip it when
- ▸You are in Ante 1-2 with no scoring engine yet — chip / +Mult jokers come first.
- ▸Your shop econ is below $25 and you can't reroll if it doesn't fit.
