Hard mode and permadeath

STEP 02 // HARD MODE

Beat hard mode

The current listing names beating hard mode as the permadeath unlock. Older wording said a first clear was enough, so check your own menu.

STEP 03 // DECIDE

One life, triple loot

Earlier official wording said dying deletes the save for good. Only switch to permadeath if you accept losing that run.

Verification statusDisconnect, crash and manual-exit behavior are not documented. Do not assume leaving protects a permadeath save.

Endless mode: classes, cards and wave badges

Endless is a separate run type from Campaign. You pick one of 6 classes, then draft from a pool of 250+ cards between waves. The run never ends; the goal is to get as far as you can.
