each turn to keep it locked there.Gain Powerful Relics: Mysterious relics of unknown cosmic origin, these activate every turn and power up your build—but beware the cursed and defective relics!
Visit the Tinkerer: Upgrade symbols using METAL
, remove deadweight symbols using FAITH, chat about the end of the universe, and make wacky trades.Face a Variety of Events: Explore the realities of the dying universe, take calculated risks, and make tradeoffs to pivot your build.
