If you've played the game and you're wondering what the Have a Nice Death medallions are for, you're well on your way to completing the game. It leaves plenty of its mechanics unexplained, encouraging you to figure things out on your own. But with the Medallions being tricky to keep hold of, there's no fun hunting them down without proper motivation.
As this touches on some late-game moments, there will be light spoilers in the following guide. It won't give major spoilers to the story but will reveal something about how one of the bosses shows up.
If you're looking for more information on the game, here's how to get the Have a nice Death secret ending. If you want more on roguelikes, here is our Deaths Door review and our Returnal review. There have been so many good roguelikes over the last few years.
What are the medallions for in Have a Nice Death?
The Have a Nice Death medallions are used to unlock the secret ending. There are three that you can find in the following locations:
- 1st locker (breakroom) - spend 3 gold Anima or 6 blue Anima.
- 2nd locker (shop) - spend 1 Prismium.
- 3rd locker (found at random in front of one of the minibosses) - this will buff the next miniboss or boss you fight.
You can only grab them after you beat the final boss. To see what the Medallions are used for, you have to find all three in one playthrough and beat the final boss again. Lose on the way and you'll have to grab all three again.
You can do the whole trip on easy mode to get a feel for things, but actually using the medallions will kick things up to an even higher difficulty than usual. You've been warned.
If you fancy playing another roguelike after you have finished Have a Nice Death, there are so many good choices out there.
