Currencies of the Dead are special in-game resources in 33 Immortals used to power progression systems such as upgrading Weapons, rerolling Relics, and enhancing Perks. These currencies are often gathered from enemy corpses, events, and bosses, and some may carry over across runs, while others are consumed during each rebellion attempt.

Overview

As part of the game's roguelike loop, players earn currencies during their rebellion runs, especially from:

• Defeated enemies and elite mobs
• Completion of Torture Chambers
• Dismantling or recycling unwanted relics
• Clearing waves or assisting in co-op revives

The game uses several types of currency, each tied to a different system. Players must decide how and when to spend these limited resources to optimize their survival and growth.

Known Currency Types

Bones

• Common drop from defeated enemies
• Used to fuel relic upgrades, temporary buffs, or co-op abilities (e.g., Greedy Strikes)
• Can be stacked for certain damage buffs

Souls

• Represent the spiritual essence of fallen enemies or players
• Used in resurrection systems, revive mechanics, or compendium unlocks
• May contribute to shared team progress

Fragments

• Acquired from recycling relics
• Used to reroll relics or refine selection in Torture Chambers
• Some relic effects scale based on the number of fragments held

Keys

• Used to unlock new zones like Purgatorio and Paradiso
• Dropped by major bosses (e.g., Purgatorio Key from Lucifer)
• Single-use per rebellion attempt

Run-Based vs Persistent

• Some currencies like Bones and Souls are consumed or reset after each run
• Others like mastery resources or compendium unlocks may persist between sessions
• Knowing which currencies reset is key to planning upgrades or relic rerolls wisely

Usage in Strategic Systems

• Exchange for co-op power boosts
• Fuel boss-focused relic effects
• Enhance Perks or progression milestones
• Open shortcuts or sealed gates in certain areas

Summary

Currencies of the Dead are essential resources that shape every rebellion in 33 Immortals. Whether you’re rerolling relics, upgrading weapons, or unlocking the gates of the afterlife, understanding how to gather and spend these currencies is crucial to enduring the wrath of divine judgment and pressing forward in the rebellion.
