Cartridges
Cartridges are special abilities that players can equip to enhance their character. Each cartridge can be obtained multiple times during the game and the abilities will stack (with the exception of the Saddle cartridge).
Obtaining Cartridges
Cartridges can be obtained in a variety of ways in the middle of a game:
- As a reward from a Slot Machine Station
- At a Cartridge Overwriter Station
- At a Cartridge Vault Station
- At a Biome Junction Station
- As drops from the Toaster Wagon
A cartridge is unlocked once you have obtained a cartridge at lease once during a session. After which you can equip that cartridge at the Cartridge Hub in the lobby as your starter cartridge.
Note that you cannot change your starter cartridge once the game begins.
Players can have up to 3 starter cartridges by purchasing the additional slots using
The Cartridge Hub
On the Main Menu, there is a building called the Cartridge Hub. This building allows players to spend their earned Hexnuts to unlock the ability to start future runs with up to 3 Cartridges. The player must first unlock Cartridge slots, which may then be equipped with any unlocked Cartridges.
