Unlock all Characters

Welcome to this guide!

in the following guide, you will get some tips on how to unlock all the characters in an easy way. Keep in mind there is probably different ways to approuce this, this is just how i managed to do it.

Alruna

Conquer Niflheim on Hard with at least one Ice Heart
Complete Niflheim on Hard with at least one Ice Heart. For this, it's best to play as Amaranth and level up her skill "Emerald Bracelet," which grants you a green heart every 50 seconds. Green hearts are automatically placed at the end. So, once you have 1-2 ice hearts, try to build up a buffer of green hearts to protect the ice hearts.

Amaranth

Obtain 2 full green hearts in one round
To achieve this, you simply need to have at least 2 green hearts in a single round. Choose the character you feel most comfortable with to avoid taking damage. There isn't much else to consider.

Note: You get green hearts when "Emerald Potions" are used, you unluck these for your game if you kill 3,500 bush creatures in Alfheim.

Blud

Find his gravesite
In the character selection, you will be shown the exact level you need to play and the wave you need to reach. Once you are there, search the map for Blud's gravesite (tombstone with a red moon on it) and touch it. It should open, and a question mark should appear.

Hafgrim

Conquer "Halvard the destroyer"
Halvard is the second mini boss in Midgard.

Hansi

Free 100,000 Enemy Shadows
For this, just play the game, as soon as you manage to kill 100,000 enemies, you unlock Hansi.

Helga

Have at least 8 hearts of any kind in one round
It's best to focus on relics that add red hearts. It doesn't matter if they are full or empty hearts, as empty ones can be filled with potions. However, blue hearts should also be taken if you don't find enough relics by the end of the round.



Helpful relics include:
Butter Cookie
Brunost
Loaf of Bread
Sea Urchin
Mead
Rib
Salmon
Porridge

If you're unsure how to unlock these, you can either check the achievements in the game or refer to this guide: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3116447028

M.I.S.S.I.N.G

Enter the shop 7 times without buying anything
In the character selection, you will see the character name as "???????" - for each visit to the shop where you don't make a purchase, one "?" will disappear. Absolutely nothing should be done in the shop, and the crystal should not be collected. To be on the safe side, simply leave the shop immediately. The easiest way to do this is with Talkor since you generally want to keep your gold with him.

Some sources on the internet suggest that you need to have unlocked 7 relics and 7 artifacts each in the glossary. Unfortunately, I couldn't personally confirm or refute this as I unlocked M.I.S.S.I.N.G. very late in the game.

Talkor

Talkör's Favor
To gain my trust, you must shop with me 25 times. You can always find Talkôr at the end of each pre-boss room*.

Note:
You need to first unluck his shop area within Gnökis shop. You do this by entering Gnökis shop while playing in Svartalfheim.

Thyra

Slay "The Skavenger King"
That is the first mini boss in Midgard

Kaos

Meet Kaos
Unravel the second mystery

To unluck Kaos, you need to have M.ISSING unlocked. One you have that, pick any character and start any normal game mode. Once started, quickly walk up up, down down, left right, left right.

@Rorschach "You get ice hearts through ice potions, which you unlock when you kill 3,500 ice cubes or ice pieces in Niflheim. Once they are unlocked, they can appear in the shop or, quite rarely, appear in levels to collect. For example from boxes."

Ok but how do you get frozen hearts?

[Smørbrød ᓚᘏᗢ]

@Loathsome Dung Eater Sorry for the late reply. I will add it now. He appears in his own shop area within Gnökis Shop. This has to be unlucked first by entering Gnökis Shop in Svartalfheim.

@God Gamer you need a specific achievement for that. You can check my other guide for it. Go check out "Small Emerald Potion" or "Emerald Potion here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3116447028
You find it on the last point "Others", right at the end of the guide

[God Gamer]

So how you can get green hearts ?

[Krackerjax]

Can you elaborate on where to find Talkör? Ive never seen him before.
