About this mod Machine translation
A "Slay the Spire 2" mod that allows your score from the previous game to help subsequent adventures. Neo now always offers an option to exchange health for gold, and lets you start the game in a special shop that can be refreshed.
BetterRewards
🎮 Module introduction
**BetterRewards** revolutionizes the way you choose your rewards at the beginning of every adventure! 🎉 You no longer need to choose from the regular rewards provided by Neo, but you can **sacrifice health points in exchange for gold coins**, and then enter a **unique special store** to spend at the beginning of the game! This store offers unique services that you will never find at ordinary merchants.
💡 **Source of inspiration**: This mod is deeply inspired by the BetterRewards mod made by Skrelpoid for "Slay the Spire 1" and pays homage to it!

⚙️ Main functions
💰 **Health points exchanged for gold coins**
After meeting Neo, you can freely decide how much health you want to sacrifice in exchange for a considerable amount of starting gold coins. High risk, high reward!
🛒 **Special Starting Store**
After sacrificing health, you immediately enter a **ONLY ONLY** shop. Here are a few magic buttons for you to use:
- **Refresh** 🔄 – Spend gold coins to **fully refresh** all inventory in the store!
- **Random Relic** 🎁 – Spend gold coins to extract a relic based on your configured rarity weight (common/uncommon/rare).
- **Random Items** 🎲 – Spend coins and get a surprise! It could be a relic, a card or a potion, it all depends on luck!
⚙️ **HIGHLY CONFIGURABLE**
You can freely adjust it through the in-game settings panel (ModManagerSettings required):
- Cost of gold coins for various services
- Range and exchange rate of health sacrifice
- Rarity weight of random relics

🙏 Special thanks
A big thank you to **Skrelpoid** and his BetterRewards mod for Slay the Spire 1. **Exchange NEO rewards for special starting shop** This core concept comes directly from that wonderful mod, which is also one of my favorite Slay the Spire 1 mods! 👏
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
