Lv 1 against Lv 25.

The same scene twice, recorded in the game: on top with the toy at Lv 1, below at Lv 25.

A Lid Goblin behind its lid and two Shadow Crawlers bunched up behind it. The nightmares and their health are the same in both halves: only the toy's level differs.

Lv 1All defeated in 8.2s

Lv 25All defeated in 0.9s

Measured from the recording. Nightmares in a real night have more health the deeper the level (the curve), so times there differ; the ratio is what an upgrade buys. Every toy's comparison
