How it works Every level Perks Lv 1 vs Lv 25 Mastery Using it

Spring Glove at Lv 1. Shadow Crawlers walk into its reach.

How it works.

Hits every ground nightmare within 1.4 tiles in its own lane at once with each swing.
Each hit knocks its target back 0.6 tiles toward the closet (a boss a quarter as far). A smasher goes half as far, a Toy Box Troll not at all. A nightmare can only be knocked back once every 6 seconds, so nothing is juggled forever.
It can't reach flying nightmares.
Toughness 800: what nightmares have to chew through to get past it.

The Bedtime Book says, at Lv 1

40 damage every 1.2s. Toughness 800.

And at Lv 25

119 damage every 0.96s. Toughness 2,152.

Every level, 1 to 25.

Upgrading costs coins, once, and lasts for good. Lv 25 costs 346,760 coins in all. The green rows are the levels with a milestone perk.

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.

Shadow Crawlers walk into its reach. The nightmares and their health are the same in both halves: only the toy's level differs.

Lv 1All defeated in 7.0s

Lv 25All defeated in 2.9s

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

Toy Mastery.
