Oops! All 6s is an Uncommon Effect Joker that doubles all listed probabilities (generally distinguished by green text in game). For example, a 2 in 5 chance would become a 4 in 5 chance.

Oops! All 6s works on almost every shown X in Y chance, including potentially undesirable effects, such as Cavendish going extinct. The only listed probability Oops! All 6s does not affect is the 1 in 4 chance of flipping a card during the X-ray Vision challenge.

Synergies

This Joker benefits Jokers that have probability effects:

  • 8 Ball's effect becomes a 2 in 4 chance to generate a Tarot card when an 8 is scored.
  • Space Joker's effect becomes a 2 in 4 chance to upgrade any hand when played.
  • Reserved Parking and Business Card become guaranteed to give money on held face cards and scored face cards respectively.
  • Hallucination guarantees a tarot card when opening a booster pack.
  • Bloodstone becomes guaranteed to apply its multiplier effect.
  • Gros Michel goes to a 2 in 6 chance of extinction, potentially causing it to go extinct sooner and allowing Cavendish to be found more quickly—which then has a negligible 2 in 1000 chance of extinction, or at which point Oops! All 6s can be sold.

Oops! All 6s can also benefit Jokers that indirectly use probability effects:

  • Lucky Cat can scale faster, as Lucky Cards have an increased chance to trigger.
  • Glass Joker, Canio, and Erosion can scale faster due to the increased chance of Glass Cards breaking.

Oops! All 6s's effect stacks with multiple copies of itself. With two copies of Oops! All 6s, probabilities are effectively quadrupled. For example, The Wheel of Fortune will always trigger, and Glass Cards will always break when played. Oops! All 6s is incompatible with Blueprint and Brainstorm, but multiple copies can be obtained in normal play by using Showman, Invisible Joker, or Ankh.

  • The Wheel of Fortune cards' chances improve to 2 in 4.

Anti-Synergies

  • Driver's License can suffer slightly from Glass Cards' increased chance of destruction.
  • While the increased chance of Glass breaking is beneficial for deck thinning, it also can pose an issue if they are crucial for survival.
  • The Wheel will have an increased chance of flipped cards, becoming 2 in 7. With 3 copies of Oops! All 6s, this chance is increased to 8 in 7, causing all playing cards to be drawn face down.

Usage Notes

  • The Fragile challenge starts the player with two Eternal Negative copies of Oops! All 6s, while all cards are Glass Cards.

Trivia

Old design of Oops! All 6s
Old design of Oops! All 6s
  • This Joker's name is a reference to Cap'n Crunch cereal, specifically the "Oops! All Berries" variant. It has become a popular meme online to refer to something excessive in this way.
  • The Joker art depicts a unique cubic die with six pips on every visible face, the highest roll one can get on a standard 6-sided die. The six-pip pattern is also shown in the background.
  • The example from the description (1 in 3 chance to 2 in 3) is now hypothetical - there are no 1 in 3 chances in the game since Bloodstone was updated in Update 1.0.1f.
  • According to LocalThunk, Oops! All 6s' design used to be in red, but it was changed to keep consistent with the color of listed probabilities.[1] The original red design for Oops! All 6s can still be seen on the icon for the achievement "You Get What You Get".
  • This Joker shares its unlock requirement with the "10K" Achievement.
