Across Tenebrous Isle, Mina collects currency that can be spent at shops to buy upgrades, gear and consumables. Managing what you buy — and when — is a core part of progression.

Currencies

The island runs on more than one kind of currency. The hub of Ossex uses the standard coinage, while Bone Beach has its own grim economy where bones serve as currency. Each region’s shops reflect its character.

What you can buy

Shops let you raise stats (see Leveling Up), restock Plasma Vials, and acquire new sidearms and trinkets. Returning to Ossex between expeditions to spend your earnings is a smart habit.

Tips

  • Prioritise upgrades that suit your chosen weapon and playstyle.
  • Keep a reserve for consumables before tackling a tough boss.
