Getting started
1. Create a character
Pick a Dark Knight, Dark Wizard or Fairy Elf and a name. No wallet setup: the game creates an Acki Nacki wallet for you and this browser remembers you.
2. Talk to Racoon
Racoon, Keeper of the Core, stands by the crystal in the middle of the city (look for the !). His quests teach you the game and pay EXP, NACKL and jewels.
3. Secure your account
Open the Wallet (B) and set a login and password. Without it, your character lives only in this browser.
The game runs on shellnet, the Acki Nacki test network. NACKL and NFTs are real on-chain test assets you can check in the explorer.
The story
Racoon's quests
Ten story quests that grow harder: from squashing 5 Spam Spiders outside the gates to toppling Reorg Giants. After the story, Racoon posts endless bounties scaled to your level.
Monsters, from weakest to strongest
Items
Items are the heart of the game. Every weapon and armor piece is unique: it has a level (+0 to +11), may have Luck, Skill and Excellent options, and wears down in combat. Monsters drop items around their own level; Mystery Boxes crack open into gear or jewels.
Luck
+5% critical chance, and Jewel of Soul succeeds 75% of the time instead of 50%.
Skill
Weapons only: your class skill deals +20% damage.
Excellent
Weapons: +15% damage. Armor: +15% defense and +4% health. Only the Chaos Goblin can make one, and failure burns the item.
Durability
Gear wears down with every kill. At 0 it is broken and gives no stats. Repair everything at Hanzo the Smith for NACKL.

| Item | What it does |
|---|
| Jewel of Bless | Upgrades a weapon or armor piece from +0 up to +6. Always works. |
| Jewel of Soul | Upgrades from +6 up to +9. 50% chance (75% with Luck). Failure: −1 level. |
| Jewel of Chaos | Used at the Chaos Goblin for Excellent and +10 / +11 upgrades, and as the Chaos Castle entry ticket. |
| Mystery Box | Click it in your inventory: it drops a weapon, armor piece or jewel. |
| Energy Drink | Restores energy (sold by Amelia). See Economy. |
| Potions & apples | Restore health or mana (Q / W). |
Rarity: from common to legendary
Every weapon and armor piece has a rarity shown in its color. It comes from a score:
score = item tier + level × 4 + Luck 6 + Skill 6 + Excellent 40
Example: an Excellent +9 sword with Luck and Skill is Mythic. Because forging Excellent can burn the item, every Excellent item is scarce, and that scarcity is what gives them value on the market. The Rankings (K) list the 50 most valuable items on the server.
Items as NFTs
Any weapon or armor piece can be minted as a unique NFT in your Acki Nacki wallet (Wallet B → “Mint an item…”). The NFT stores the item type, level and options on-chain and always matches the item in the game.
Stays in your inventory
A minted item stays in the game, marked NFT. You can wear it, trade it, sell it and upgrade it.
Keeps upgrading
Upgrade an NFT item with jewels or at the Chaos Goblin as usual. The game burns the old NFT and mints a new one with the new level to the same wallet. If the Chaos Goblin burns the item, its NFT is burned too.
Follows its owner
Sell or trade an NFT item and it moves to the buyer's wallet on the blockchain automatically. If the NFT leaves your wallet outside the game, the item leaves the game too.
Earns more NACKL
With at least one NFT item equipped, monsters drop NACKL 4× more often. Without one you still earn, just less.
Economy: a game that pays for itself
NACKL from monsters, quests and the shop buy-back comes from the reward pool. Everything players spend flows back into it. The fuller the pool, the more often monsters drop NACKL; as it drains, drops get rarer, so it never runs dry.
