Discovered this pretty easily with a few dozen cryptids, haven’t tested much but;

Scoring naninf
Waiting for the auto save on the “cash out” screen
Exiting to main menu
Loading back in to the save
Instantly crashes when (what I can only assume) trying to load previous score. Chip value doesn’t actually reset until you go back into the shop, so that’s what I’m assuming causes this, also the “chips (nil value)” crash text is a good hint. Behold, your save is now bricked and unplayable!
Not sure if this works on any version apart from iOS though.

the save isnt bricked, you can start a new run from the main menu

#

unless you cant do that on iOS

Right my bad

#

Not the save, the run itself

#

but yeah, the game crashing after naneinf is a well known bug

Oh dang

#

it happens because after scoring another hand, it compares the highest score this run to the current highest score this run, which leads to comparision with nan which is bad

I have the same problem. This means that my save is now dead/unplayable?

Yes unfortunately

The same thing happened to me, is there any way to get the seed at least?

#

Nope, sorry

#

If you know how to look at the local files for whatever device your on then maybe

#

I've downloaded a buncha apps to try accessing the files but my os is hellbent on keeping them hidden

Sorry if this has been solved, but if you naneinf, exit the game and then enter it again, it will always crash. This has been a thing forever

I don't think so. I've heard of a Balatro Save Editor (PC exclusive I think) Which allows you to set your best hand to 0 chips. That solves it pretty sure. In case you can't tell from my unsure speech, take this with a grain of salt as I've never been in this situation as I play on Switch.
