100,000K

[Mr Nobody]

Is there a good strategy for 100,000K in this game? I understand that this can be achieved with many high quality jokers, but finding them all is quite difficult. Is there something that will always work?

[srn347]

It's a roguelike, you kind of have to adapt to what you get each run. But the general formula for success is to get +mult, +chips, xmult, and ideally more xmult but that only really becomes necessary from like purple stake onward.

Thanks for telling me the basics, very helpful (nope).

You can stack 'double tags' and just cash like 5-6 out at once when you see ghost joker, that way you can get 5-6 ghost jokers that takes no space and easily stack to ridiculously high numbers. When in doubt, stack more tokens because the ghost jokers may not necessarily have synergy with your cards at hand.

It's all about cheesing it also easy way to do it is with anaglyph deck, it's possible with other decks but the anaglyph double tag is just the easiest way to cheese it.

Also if you hold R you can fast restart a run, just keep restarting til you get a super good skip in ante 1 round 1.

There are some must haves - Cavendish (x3 multi) is pretty much a given make sure you have cavendish. Cavendish is only unlocked after you play a gros micheal until it dies of natural causes, if you get a chance to clone it it's very powerful since it needs no conditions to be met except burning a gros micheal.

Restarting for good skips in ante 1 round 1 is a trap, you're honestly better off playing the round. You need jokers, and you need to enter shops to find them.

Skip less round to see more shops, that minimises the chance of not getting a good joker. Also, steel and glass are key. You can play high card and trigger 5-7 steel cards which makes your score go to the moon. High scores are all about fining multiple ways to multiply your score in a row

[ambershee]

General rule of thumb is you want a decent chip generating joker, a decent +multiplier joker, and a decent x-multiplier joker. From there you have two more slots you can use to support your strategy or boost whatever is the weakest of your main three. Glass, Steel, and other special cards can all also dramatically increase the value of a hand.

It is worth remembering that you can change the order of your jokers at any time, and you can change the order of the cards in your hand at any time too. This can be advantageous for ensuring that your +multipliers are all added before your x-multipliers trigger.

does rearranging jokers make a difference?

Yes, order of execution can make an enormous difference. If you have a joker A with +4 mult, another B with +8 mult, and a third C with x2 mult;

ABC = 24
CAB = 12
ACB = 16
BCA = 20

Be sure to read the jokers though because it isn't quite this simple, and some trigger at specific times instead of the usual trigger time.

It depends
To get max points you'll want all your xMult AFTER your +Mult
If you got both x and + on a single joker, you'll want that one "in the middle"
( meaning after any vanilla +Mult / before any vanilla xMult )
Bonus chips placement is typically irrelevant

Also note that ordering your jokers sub-optimally can sometimes be a good idea
This in order to play more hands before reaching the goal / thereby scaling more
( example if you got spare trousers but can clear the goal in one hand )
( re-order to score less / get more hands in / scale your trousers more )

[Aexia]

Order of played cards matters as well. You want cards that add mult to trigger before cards that do x-mult.

Thanks all - I just assumed the game played the jokers/hands in a certain set way. Didn't occur to me I could rearrange them!
Hopefully I should get a bit further next play!!

Okay, let me be more specific. During yesterday's game, I had Ceremonial Dagger (≈50), Driver's License (active, x3), Invisible Joker (2/3), Throwback (≈x3) and Hologram (≈x7). It's a pretty good set, but it wasn't even close because the blinds are growing much faster than my jokers. That's why I was asking for advice, not because I missed the tutorial.
