76561199069120641: Greed card changes

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: Adds recycler

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: Adds Oblation removes vampirism

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: Switched clons to clones

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: /* List of Cards */

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641:

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

[[File:Perks menu.png|400px|right|thumb|Selecting perks for the King of '''Nothing''']] Each [[king]] has a level. At the end of each [[run]] it will gain experience based on the number of years played, regardless of whether the [[run]] was successful or not. After a [[king]] gains enough experience it will level up, which unlocks a perk that can be assigned to one of the king's 9 perk slots. Perks are permanent bonuses that apply to every [[run]]. They can be reset at any time between runs.

There are 3 types of perks:
*Universal perks, available to all kings.
*King perks, available only to the chosen king.
*Rainbow perks, available to all kings and unlocked every third level.

A new perk unlocks every time a king levels up, alternating between Universal and King perks with every level up. Additionally, every third level threshold reached for the first time (level 3, level 6, level 9, etc.) unlocks a Rainbow perk.

Before starting a run, up to 9 perks can be activated by placing them in slots from the pool of unlocked perks, with the option to unlock additional slots by assigning the Rainbow perk Expander.

Perks

2025-12-04T22:53:24Z

76561199069120641: Added nature perks

[[File:Perks menu.png|400px|right|thumb|Selecting perks for the King of '''Nothing''']] Each [[king]] has a level. At the end of each [[run]] it will gain experience based on the number of years played, regardless of whether the [[run]] was successful or not. After a [[king]] gains enough experience it will level up, which unlocks a perk that can be assigned to one of the king's 9 perk slots. Perks are permanent bonuses that apply to every [[run]]. They can be reset at any time between runs.

There are 3 types of perks:
*Universal perks, available to all kings.
*King perks, available only to the chosen king.
*Rainbow perks, available to all kings and unlocked every third level.

A new perk unlocks every time a king levels up, alternating between Universal and King perks with every level up. Additionally, every third level threshold reached for the first time (level 3, level 6, level 9, etc.) unlocks a Rainbow perk.

Before starting a run, up to 9 perks can be activated by placing them in slots from the pool of unlocked perks, with the option to unlock additional slots by assigning the Rainbow perk Expander.

Cards

2025-12-04T22:33:54Z

76561199069120641: Removed osmosis picture

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: Added golem

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: /* Special Cards */

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: Adds gacha

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

[[File:9plots.png|thumb|A starting kingdom of 9 empty plots.]]
A kingdom initially consists of 9 plots arranged in a 3 by 3 grid. The player plays [[cards]] by dragging them onto plots. During the course of a [[run]], the player can unlock up to 16 additional outer plots for a total of 25 plots in a 5 by 5 grid.

Playing [[Cards#Base|Base]], [[Cards#Troops|Troop]], [[Cards#Buildings|Building]], and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] cards on empty plots activates them in your kingdom. Playing these cards on a plot occupied by a card of the same type upgrades that card. Playing a [[Cards#Tomes|Tome]] card on an occupied plot activates the tome card's effect. Playing an [[Cards#Enchantments|Enchantment]] card on a plot occupied by a [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] applies a bonus effect to the troop; this effect stacks if the same enchantment is played on the troop multiple times.

[[File:25plots.png|thumb|A kingdom with all 25 plots unlocked.]]
The Expansionist and Pollinator [[perks]] can unlock additional starting plots. On days 12, 19, and 27 of a run, [[events#The Tower|The Tower]] event lets the player expand to an additional outer plot. The [[Royal Council#Exploration|Exploration]] and [[Royal Council#Wilderness|Wilderness]] royal decrees unlock additional empty plots. The player can use the [[Cards#List of Cards|Earthworks]] card on a plot with a card on it to expand up to 2 adjacent plots. In [[Run#Endless_Mode|Endless Mode]], [[events#The Tower|The Tower]] appears permanently and the player can use it to enter expansion mode and buy empty plots for 30 Gold each.

Run

2025-12-04T07:09:38Z

76561199069120641:

A game of ''[[9 Kings]]'' consists of a 33 year run, which can be continued endlessly after victory. Each run has three lives. A life is lost if any enemy unit touches the Kingdom [[Cards#Base|Base card]], excluding the [[Kings|King of Nomads]], who does not have a permanent base. If the player is playing as the King of Nomads, then the enemy needs to touch the player's life statues for a life to be lost. If the player loses a life during a final battle, the entire run is lost, no matter how many lives they have. The only way that lives can be regained is with the [[Royal Council#Shared Decrees|Rebirth Decree]]. Every year includes a battle, but some years have additional effects. Each battle will give 9 Gold at the end, regardless of who won. Winning a battle will grant a card from the defeated king's deck, while losing a battle will grant a card from the player's king deck.

Each run will start with 2 opposing [[kings]] as well as rebel armies from the king that has been chosen. Additional kings will be added and removed as the run progresses. The king that will attack next will be displayed briefly with an icon in the lower-right corner when the year starts, and can be shown again by placing the cursor near the right side of the map. The player will have the choice to reroll the attacking king for 10 gold with an additional 10 gold for each reroll.

==Gameplay==
A player starts a run with a capital consisting of 9 empty [[plots]] and a hand of 4 cards: one [[Cards#Base|base card]] and 3 cards from the chosen king's deck. The player can select [[perks]] to start with many benefits, some of which depend on what king they play. The first card played on a run is always a [[Cards#Base|base card]] on an empty plot. The player then keeps playing or discarding cards until only two cards remain in their hand, at which point the year's battle commences against an opposing king.

The remainder of the run follows this pattern until the final battle in year 33:
* If the player survives the battle with at least 1 life, they select one of three randomly drawn cards to add to their hand.
* They deal with any special [[events]], such as [[Royal Council]]s, [[merchant]] and [[Events#Diplomat|Diplomat Visits]], and [[Events#The_Tower|Plot Expansions]].
* They play or discard cards until they own only two cards, at which point the next year's battle commences.

===Final Battle===
On year 33, the player must play or discard all remaining cards in their possession before facing the final battle. The enemy army will be led by a champion of the enemy king, who has the same ability as their base card. If the player is victorious in the final battle, a run is won after 33 years, but can be continued indefinitely. You will also receive 3 cards from the defeated king. Winning a route on the currently hardest [[difficulty]] unlocks the next hardest difficulty.

===Endless Mode===
After winning the Final Battle, players may continue indefinitely.

[[Events#The_Tower|The Tower]] will appear permanently, and you can click on it to buy empty plots for 30 Gold each.

==Order of events==
Each run will be made up of the following years. In addition to these events, the [[Rainbow army]] will attack once on a random year. Afterwards, the pattern between years 34 and 44 will repeat indefinitely. Final battles continue to occur every 33 years, starting on year 66.

Run

2025-12-04T07:08:47Z

76561199069120641:

A game of ''[[9 Kings]]'' consists of a 33 year run, which can be continued endlessly after victory. Each run has three lives. A life is lost if any enemy unit touches the Kingdom [[Cards#Base|Base card]], excluding the [[Kings|King of Nomads]], who does not have a permanent base. If the player is playing as the King of Nomads, then the enemy needs to touch the player's life statues. If the player loses a life during a final battle, the entire run is lost, no matter how many lives they have. The only way that lives can be regained is with the [[Royal Council#Shared Decrees|Rebirth Decree]]. Every year includes a battle, but some years have additional effects. Each battle will give 9 Gold at the end, regardless of who won. Winning a battle will grant a card from the defeated king's deck, while losing a battle will grant a card from the player's king deck.

Each run will start with 2 opposing [[kings]] as well as rebel armies from the king that has been chosen. Additional kings will be added and removed as the run progresses. The king that will attack next will be displayed briefly with an icon in the lower-right corner when the year starts, and can be shown again by placing the cursor near the right side of the map. The player will have the choice to reroll the attacking king for 10 gold with an additional 10 gold for each reroll.

==Gameplay==
A player starts a run with a capital consisting of 9 empty [[plots]] and a hand of 4 cards: one [[Cards#Base|base card]] and 3 cards from the chosen king's deck. The player can select [[perks]] to start with many benefits, some of which depend on what king they play. The first card played on a run is always a [[Cards#Base|base card]] on an empty plot. The player then keeps playing or discarding cards until only two cards remain in their hand, at which point the year's battle commences against an opposing king.

The remainder of the run follows this pattern until the final battle in year 33:
* If the player survives the battle with at least 1 life, they select one of three randomly drawn cards to add to their hand.
* They deal with any special [[events]], such as [[Royal Council]]s, [[merchant]] and [[Events#Diplomat|Diplomat Visits]], and [[Events#The_Tower|Plot Expansions]].
* They play or discard cards until they own only two cards, at which point the next year's battle commences.

===Final Battle===
On year 33, the player must play or discard all remaining cards in their possession before facing the final battle. The enemy army will be led by a champion of the enemy king, who has the same ability as their base card. If the player is victorious in the final battle, a run is won after 33 years, but can be continued indefinitely. You will also receive 3 cards from the defeated king. Winning a route on the currently hardest [[difficulty]] unlocks the next hardest difficulty.

===Endless Mode===
After winning the Final Battle, players may continue indefinitely.

[[Events#The_Tower|The Tower]] will appear permanently, and you can click on it to buy empty plots for 30 Gold each.

==Order of events==
Each run will be made up of the following years. In addition to these events, the [[Rainbow army]] will attack once on a random year. Afterwards, the pattern between years 34 and 44 will repeat indefinitely. Final battles continue to occur every 33 years, starting on year 66.

Perks

2025-12-04T05:45:34Z

76561199069120641: /* Common Perks */

[[File:Perks menu.png|400px|right|thumb|Selecting perks for the King of '''Nothing''']] Each [[king]] has a level. At the end of each [[run]] it will gain experience based on the number of years played, regardless of whether the [[run]] was successful or not. After a [[king]] gains enough experience it will level up, which unlocks a perk that can be assigned to one of the king's 9 perk slots. Perks are permanent bonuses that apply to every [[run]]. They can be reset at any time between runs.

There are 3 types of perks:
*Universal perks, available to all kings.
*King perks, available only to the chosen king.
*Rainbow perks, available to all kings and unlocked every third level.

A new perk unlocks every time a king levels up, alternating between Universal and King perks with every level up. Additionally, every third level threshold reached for the first time (level 3, level 6, level 9, etc.) unlocks a Rainbow perk.

Before starting a run, up to 9 perks can be activated by placing them in slots from the pool of unlocked perks, with the option to unlock additional slots by assigning the Rainbow perk Expander.

Perks

2025-12-04T05:43:42Z

76561199069120641: It is now 20% instead of 10% for the lucky perk

[[File:Perks menu.png|400px|right|thumb|Selecting perks for the King of '''Nothing''']] Each [[king]] has a level. At the end of each [[run]] it will gain experience based on the number of years played, regardless of whether the [[run]] was successful or not. After a [[king]] gains enough experience it will level up, which unlocks a perk that can be assigned to one of the king's 9 perk slots. Perks are permanent bonuses that apply to every [[run]]. They can be reset at any time between runs.

There are 3 types of perks:
*Universal perks, available to all kings.
*King perks, available only to the chosen king.
*Rainbow perks, available to all kings and unlocked every third level.

A new perk unlocks every time a king levels up, alternating between Universal and King perks with every level up. Additionally, every third level threshold reached for the first time (level 3, level 6, level 9, etc.) unlocks a Rainbow perk.

Before starting a run, up to 9 perks can be activated by placing them in slots from the pool of unlocked perks, with the option to unlock additional slots by assigning the Rainbow perk Expander.

76561199069120641: Undo revision 695 by 76561199069120641 (talk)

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: it increases by 10 not 15

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 10 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

Events

76561199069120641: They Visit twice a run on year 16-17 and I think in year 26-27. I also am not 100% sure if they dont show up in endless or not so im not editing that until i prove otherwise.

Events appear periodically during [[run]]s to offer special gameplay options. Events occur after the player has finished a battle and selected the opposing [[king]]'s card.

==Royal Council==
The [[Royal Council]] event allows the player to select a royal decree to provide a permanent bonus effect to the kingdom.

The Royal Council occurs four times during a run, on years 4, 14, 21, and 29. In endless mode, the Royal Council occurs on year 37 and every 11 years subsequently.

==Prophet==
On year 6, the prophet foresees a [[blessing]] that comes to pass on year 16.

==Diplomat==
The diplomat appears on year 8 to declare war on a fourth [[king]]. On year 23, the diplomat returns to make peace with one of the three opposing kings. The player can choose between two randomly selected kings and spend gold to re-roll the options. The player cannot make peace with the rebel king.

In endless mode, the diplomat visits on year 35 and every 11 years subsequently to declare war on a new king, and on year 42 and every 11 years subsequently to make peace with a warring king.

==Merchant==
Three [[merchants]] visit the player to offer a random selection of [[cards]] from all the kings for purchase, as well as [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] not available from battling kings.

The three merchants visit the player in a random order on years 10, 25, and 31. In endless mode, a merchant will visit the player on year 40 and every 11 years subsequently.

==Rainbow army==
[[File:rainbow.png |right]]The Rainbow army attacks instead of a warring king on a random year. The army consists of [[Cards#Slime|Slimes]], [[Cards#Ogre|Ogres]], [[Cards#Scapegoat|Scapegoats]], and Golems. Defeating the army lets the player choose a [[cards#Special cards|special card]]. The Rainbow army attacks twice during a run and does not revisit the player in endless mode.

==The Tower==
The tower allows the player to expand to a new empty [[plot]].

The tower appears on years 12, 19, and 27. In endless mode, the tower appears permanently and can be activated at any time during the card playing phase to purchase an empty plot for 30 gold.

==Chaos==
If the player continues a run in endless mode, the chaos level increases to 1 making enemies more powerful. Chaos level increases by +1 on year 44 and every 11 years subsequently. In addition to making enemies more powerful, chaos levels tint the kingdom an increasingly dark shade of red.

Cards

2025-12-04T04:59:21Z

76561199069120641: removing | |} at the end of time king

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.

76561199069120641: Adds king of time cards. Temp Null has no PNG but I find it funny.

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected [[king]]. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated [[king]] (or a [[Cards#Base|base card]] if not fully upgraded). The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same [[king]]. Cards can also be purchased from [[merchants]] for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

In addition to the king cards, there are 12 [[cards#Special cards|special cards]] available for purchase from merchants. Points can be spent on the Lucky [[perks|perk]] to increase the chance of special cards appearing in merchant shops.

The King of Greed perk Peddler provides free merchant card purchases and the King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Bargain|Bargain]] halves the cost of purchasing merchant cards.

The Persistent perk provides additional free re-rolls for both after-battle and merchant card selections. The [[Royal_Council#Outsourcing|Outsourcing]] royal decree provides 9 free re-rolls.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card. The King of Greed royal decree [[Royal_Council#Salvage|Salvage]] triples the amount of gold returned from discards.

Before each battle, you play or discard cards until you have two remaining in your hand (so, typically 1/turn). The exception is before the [[Run#Final_Battle|Final Battle]] where all cards must be played.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.

==Card types==
There are six types of cards: base, troop, tower, building, enchantment, and tome.
====Base====
[[File:Card type kingdom.png]] The Base card is the first card placed on a [[run]]. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches the base plot during a battle, and the run is lost if an enemy unit reaches it during the final battle on year 33. During battle their attack can be manually triggered or set to auto fire.
====Troops====
[[File:Card type troop.png]] Troops are mobile combat units that engage enemy units in battle.
====Towers====
[[File:Card type tower.png]] Towers are structures that attack or apply effects during battles. They are indestructible and with the exception of the [[Cards#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] they are immobile during battle.
====Buildings====
[[File:Card type building.png]] Buildings provide a variety of effects, including [[Cards#Troops|Troop]] and [[Cards#Towers|Tower]] buffs, summoning units, and more. The [[Royal_Council#Overwork|Overwork]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to increase the number of times buildings apply their effects.
====Tomes====
[[File:Card type spell.png]] Tomes are played on occupied plots to provide a variety of advantages for the player.
====Enchantments====
[[File:Card type stack.png]] Enchantments can be played on [[Cards#Troops|Troops]] multiple times to provide units with a variety of stacking bonuses. The [[Royal_Council#Re-enchant|Re-enchant]] Royal Decree can be selected multiple times to double the enchantments on all active [[Cards#Troops|Troops]].

==Levels==
With the exception of the [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troop, which has no level cap, every [[Cards#Troops|troop]], [[Cards#Towers|tower]], and [[Cards#Buildings|building]] card comes in three levels. [[Cards#Base|Base]] cards have three levels but the Ingenious perk can raise their level cap to nine.

[[Cards#Base|Base]] cards, [[Cards#Troops|troops]], [[Cards#Towers|towers]], and [[Cards#Buildings|buildings]] are played on empty plots and can be upgraded to the next level by playing another card of the same type on the same plot. Additionally, the [[Cards#Concabulator|Concabulator]] building, [[Cards#Overhaul|Overhaul]] & [[Cards#Wildcard|Wildcard]] tomes, and [[Royal_Council#Gentrify|Gentrify]] royal decree can level up cards. [[Cards#Lab_Rat|Lab Rat]] troops level up whenever adjacent plots level up and their level can be doubled by selecting the [[Royal_Council#Splicing|Splicing]] Royal Decree. The Pagan, Pollinator, Scholar, and Warden perks can start a run with specific cards pre-leveled.
