Official trailer
Launch trailer on Steam
The official launch trailer is hosted on the Steam store page. Playback happens on Steam, so this page does not embed the video.
Core systems
The systems at a glance
These summaries use official store pages, achievement data and official screenshots. Detailed guide pages are still being written, so this section states only what those sources confirm.
Tickets and catalogues
The ticket panel shows symbol chance, hardness and upgrade stats. The game has four standard catalogues.
Gadgets and automation
Scratch Bot, a printer, the Egg Timer and other gadgets sit on the same table. The Egg Timer can be upgraded, and one achievement needs it at x5 speed.
Prestige and Jack Points
The Prestige screen shows a skill tree, a Jack Points (JP) counter and a Challenges tab.
Mundo, the cat
Mundo can scratch a super jackpot or bankrupt you. Cosmetic Mundo skins came with Patch 1.1.
The Machine and Spell Book
The late-game soul machine has a Feed control and a soul counter, and a Spell Book icon stays on screen. Official sources do not yet confirm the exact costs or effects.
Night Market and cosmetics
Steam has achievements named Visit the Night Market and Walk-in-closet. Patch 1.1 added the cosmetic Mundo skins.
Challenges and endings
Nine challenges and several endings
Challenge Update 1.2 (28 Sep 2026) added nine challenges that change the rules of a run.
The nine challenges
- Student Loans
- Ticket Merge
- Limited Supply
- Lucky Bag
- Print Error
- Shuffle

Endings and the secret catalogue
- Final Chance is a ticket with its own achievements for claiming it, skipping a catalogue, dying, or giving the winning ticket to the corporation.
- No More Gambling requires finding and scratching the Scritchy Scratchy Headquarters.
- Completing all nine challenges unlocks a secret catalogue with three tickets and a new special ending.
