Room Full of Cheese

This room is full of cheese!!!

You look around to see if there are any traps and above you is... more cheese. The candles in this room appear to be made of cheese. The furniture is also cheese.
Suddenly, the door behind you slams shut.

It is made of cheese.
You take a little nibble of cheese but this fuels you to eat even more cheese.

Time passes...

You have eaten an awe-inspiring amount of cheese.
Tonight, dreams will be cheese.
You scrounge about for hours and hours...

Time slips by as your mind travels to strange places from the sheer presence of all this cheese, and you fade into a stupor....
You snap awake and realize you're holding something.

Which option to take

Taken in Act 1 or 2, the cheese pays itself back in about fourteen fights and keeps growing after that.

Gorge

Card2 of 8 random Common cards
  • Gorge is only right when your deck is thin and starved for a specific common you can see.

Search

Our pick
HP−14RelicThe Chosen Cheese
  • Search unless the 14 HP would leave you at risk before the next rest site.

How it plays

  • Gorge lays out 8 random Common cards from your character's pool, rolled with flat odds, and you add exactly 2 of them.
  • Search costs 14 HP that ignores Block and powers and gives The Chosen Cheese, which raises your Max HP by 1 after every combat for the rest of the run.
