Sixth Sense is an Uncommon Effect Joker that will provide the player with Spectral Cards, as long as it is fed with a 6 as the only played card in the first hand of a round. It activates after all scoring is completed and therefore still works if the 6 is debuffed, and does not get influenced by retriggers. It does not activate if the hand is not allowed under the current Boss Blind (e.g. The Psychic).

Sixth Sense cannot give the Spectral Cards The Soul (Creates a [[Legendary Jokers|{{hl|purple|Legendary}}]] Joker <br> {{room}} Available from start. Spectral The Soul.png) or Black Hole (Upgrade every [[Poker Hands|{{hl|purple|poker hand}}]] by {{hl|orange|1}} level Available from start. Spectral Black Hole.png), as both can only be found in Booster Packs.

As Sixth Sense requires having 6s in the deck to activate, it has limited use as the player will likely destroy all 6s in the Deck before reaching Ante 8. However, this is usually ideal, as 6s do not have any particularly strong synergies with other Jokers, and the Spectral Card given may help further enhance the player's deck and hasten the Deck manipulation process. In general, Spectral Cards to look out for are:

• Any of the Seal-adding Cards.
  • Deja Vu (Add a [[Red Seal|{{hl|red|Red Seal}}]] to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Deja Vu.png), Trance (Add a [[Blue Seal|{{hl|blue|Blue Seal}}]] to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Trance.png), Medium (Add a [[Purple Seal|{{hl|purple|Purple Seal}}]] to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Medium.png), and Talisman (Add a [[Gold Seal|{{hl|orange|Gold Seal}}]] to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Talisman.png).
• Aura (Add [[Foil|{{hl|edition|Foil}}]], [[Holographic|{{hl|edition|Holographic}}]], or [[Polychrome|{{hl|edition|Polychrome}}]] effect to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in hand Available from start. Spectral Aura.png) for farming the Polychrome ({{xmult|1.5}} Joker (Polychrome).png) Edition.
• Cryptid (Create {{hl|orange|2}} copies of {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Cryptid.png) to make copies of a useful card, which can be used in conjunction with the above Spectral Cards.
• Immolate (Destroys {{hl|orange|5}} random cards in hand, gain {{Money|20}} Available from start. Spectral Immolate.png) to further hasten Deck manipulation and for a boost in Money.
• Ectoplasm (Add [[Card Modifiers#Editions|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] to a random {{hl|orange|Joker,}} {{hl|red|-1}} hand size Available from start. Spectral Ectoplasm.png) for when the player has their final Joker lineup.

Any other Spectral Card is still worth keeping so as to prevent it from appearing in the shop, either from a Spectral Booster Pack or from playing on the Ghost Deck ( [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Spectral}}]] cards may appear in the shop, start with a {{spectral|Hex}} card Win a run with the {{D|Yellow}} on [[Stakes|any difficulty]] Ghost Deck.png), as they are either too niche or hard to make use of. In the event that the player finds Sixth Sense in the Shop but the Deck contains no or few 6s, it could be beneficial to open Standard Card Packs to directly add 6s for later destruction.

• Red Deck ( {{hl|red|+1}} discard every round Unlocked from start Red Deck.png) gives +1 Discard which makes it easier to find a 6.
• Blue Deck ( {{hl|blue|+1}} hand every round Discover at least {{hl|orange|20}} items from your [[collection]] Blue Deck.png) gives +1 Hand which allows the player more freedom to utilize Sixth Sense, as there are more remaining Hands to defeat the Blind.
• Abandoned Deck ( Start run with no {{F|}}[[Card Ranks#Face cards|{{hl|orange|Face Cards}}]] in your deck Win a run with the {{D|Green}} on [[Stakes|any difficulty]] Abandoned Deck.png) and Mad World ( ) increase the chance to draw a 6 as they have less overall cards.
• Erratic Deck ( All [[Card Ranks|{{hl|orange|Ranks}}]] and [[Suits|{{hl|orange|Suits}}]] in deck are randomized Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Orange}} difficulty or harder Erratic Deck.png) has a chance to provide more 6s to destroy, increasing Sixth Sense's value.

• High Card is the only poker hand directly relevant to Sixth Sense.

• Perkeo (Creates a [[Negative|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] copy of {{hl|orange|1}} random [[Consumables|{{hl|orange|consumable}}]] card in your possession at the end of the [[The Shop|{{hl|orange|shop}}]] Find this [[Jokers|Joker]] from the [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Soul}}]] card. Legendary Effect N/A (Passive) Perkeo.png) can copy any Spectral Card created by Sixth Sense.
• DNA (If {{hl|orange|first hand}} of round has only {{hl|orange|1}} card, add a permanent copy to deck and draw it to {{hl|orange|hand}} Rare Effect On Played DNA.png) can create copies of playing cards, allowing the player to infinitely farm Spectral Cards as long as the Deck contains at least one 6.
• Erosion ({{Mult|+4}} for each card below {{hl|orange|[the deck's starting size]}} in your full deck <br> {{Currently|{{Mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Erosion.png) will also scale after Sixth Sense destroys 6s.

• Strength (Increases rank of up to {{hl|orange|2}} selected cards by {{hl|orange|1}} Available from start. Tarot Strength.png) can be used to turn 5s (and possibly 4s) into 6s to be destroyed and converted into Spectral cards. This also helps remove cards in order to shape the deck.
• Death (Select {{hl|orange|2}} cards, convert the {{hl|orange|left}} card into the {{hl|orange|right}} card<br>{{hl|gray|(Drag to rearrange)}} Available from start. Tarot Death.png) can turn some cards into 6s to be destroyed and converted into Spectral cards.

• Grabber (Permanently gain {{hl|blue|+1}} hand per round Base Grabber.png) and Nacho Tong (Permanently gain an additional {{hl|blue|+1}} hand per round Play a total of 2,500 cards Upgraded Nacho Tong.png) both give additional hands to play, which can be used to trigger Sixth Sense with fewer consequences.
• Wasteful (Permanently gain {{hl|red|+1}} discard each round Base Wasteful.png) and Recyclomancy (Permanently gain an additional {{hl|red|+1}} discard each round Discard a total of 2500 cards Upgraded Recyclomancy.png) both give additional discards, which can help in finding 6s.

• Any blind that disables cards in deck (like The Club ( Boss The Club.png), The Pillar ( Boss The Pillar.png), etc.) will not prevent Sixth Sense from triggering.

• Black Deck ( {{hl|orange|+1}} Joker slot <br> {{hl|blue|-1}} hand every round Discover at least {{hl|orange|100}} items from your [[collection]] Black Deck.png), Blast Off ( ), and Golden Needle ( ) all reduce the number of hands to play, which can discourage using Sixth Sense while a player's hands aren't strong enough.

• Obtaining a second copy of Sixth Sense () does not stack with itself, creating only 1 Spectral Card when destroying 6s.

• The Psychic ( Boss The Psychic.png) forces the player to play a 5-card hand, meaning Sixth Sense cannot activate.
• The Needle ( Boss The Needle.png) sets the player's hands to 1. Therefore, to still benefit from Sixth Sense, the player would have to beat the blind with nothing but a single High Card.
• The Mouth ( Boss The Mouth.png) only allows 1 hand type, so unless players build around High Cards, they must play a winning hand type first, missing Sixth Sense's effect.

• On Blue Stake difficulty or higher, there is a -1 Discard penalty which can make it harder to find a 6.

• A sixth sense, also known as extrasensory perception, is the power of perception beyond the five senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell, or taste.
• In early demo versions, the effect of Sixth Sense was "Each played 6 permanently gains +6 Chips when scored". This is changed in later versions.
