Plan your next Gnomes session
Our independent guide breaks down Gnomes’ core systems, offering observations that help you refine strategies without promising hidden bonuses. By comparing guild traits, biome demands, and upgrade synergies, you can craft adaptable approaches for each unique run.
01 / THE GUIDE
Guild Comparison
Play two consecutive runs with different guilds, noting how starting relics affect early defense. Record which guild handles specific biomes more efficiently.
- Try moving several gnomes before placing relics.
- Re‑evaluate plant placement after each night.
02 / THE GUIDE
Biome Adaptation
Select a single biome and run multiple attempts, adjusting crop choices each time. Observe how resource availability shifts your optimal plant‑relic combos.
- Observe map hazards early.
- Match crops to biome resources.

03 / THE GUIDE
Upgrade Experimentation
During a run, deliberately purchase varied random upgrades. Track which combinations yield the strongest defensive loops versus economic growth.
- Test multiple guilds.
- Align relics with guild strengths.
04 / THE GUIDE
Endless Survival Timing
After beating the goblin king, continue until defeat. Note the night at which your economy falters and test if earlier defensive investments extend survival.
- Balance economy and defense.
- Watch wave difficulty spikes.
05 / THE GUIDE
Turn Efficiency Review
In a single night, move all gnomes before placing any relics. Compare this order to mixing moves and placements, evaluating which yields smoother night transitions.
- Mix relics with crop abilities.
- Experiment with upgrade combos.
