First ascent
Beginner Guide
A spoiler-light route from your first card choice to a coherent co-op run.
Choose a simple plan
Pick one clear way your deck will win, then favor cards that advance it or keep you alive long enough to execute it.
Do not take every reward
A new card has a cost: it makes every other card slightly harder to draw. Skip rewards that do not have a job.
Match relics to the deck
Relics are powerful, but their value depends on whether your current cards can trigger or exploit them.
Read the route ahead
The game asks you to choose a path. Balance elites against your current health, deck quality and team readiness.
Coordinate in co-op
The official experience supports climbs with up to three friends. Share your role and discuss risky encounters before committing.
Your next stop
Explore system references or measure how consistently your deck finds a key card.
