4 vertical lanes. Each has Defense (top), Attack (mid), Spell (bottom). Spells buff units directly above! Empty defense = enemy hits HP. Predict where attacks come!
⭐ Star Merging
Get 3 copies of the same unit → auto-merges into ★★ (2× stats). Three ★★ → ★★★ (3× stats + Quirk ability)!

Spend gold to level your Tavern. Higher level = more shop slots, access to rarer units.
🔗 Synergies
Same-type units activate trait bonuses! 2 Fire = +ATK. 3 Fire = burn damage. Build around types!

Save 5+ gold for interest (+1/5, max +3). Win/loss streaks give bonus gold. Sell units to get gold back. Right-click = sell.
