New Artifacts:
  • Sticky Fingers - When your hand is empty during your turn, draw a card.
  • Three Seashells - Each time you are damaged in combat, other players are healed for the same amount.
  • Salt Lamp - Gain a +2 damage bonus for the next turn if you haven't killed any monster this turn.
  • Flambeau - Every 3rd exhausted card heals you 1 HP.
  • Bow Tie - Deal 50 damage to one random monster at the beginning of each battle.
  • Hourglass - If you have 50% or less HP, your attacks deal +1/double damage.
