Duplicate Bonuses & Combining
Pulling a duplicate of Runic Locket from a pack adds a spare copy to your collection. Spend spare copies in the Cards tab to combine and raise its level โ each level costs a number of copies equal to the card's current level. Reaching the maximum level of 8 from level 1 requires 28 total copies. Read the full Duplicate Cards & Combining guide for the general combine mechanics, or use the Combine All button in-game to apply every possible level-up across your whole collection at once.
Evolution
Tycoon Cards does not currently have a card evolution system โ Runic Locket progresses only through the standard duplicate-combine mechanic described above. Evolution is listed as a researched feature on our Updates & Roadmap page; this page will be updated if it's ever implemented.
Fusion
There is no cross-card fusion system in Tycoon Cards today. Every card, including Runic Locket, is levelled independently using its own spare copies โ you cannot combine it with a different card. Like Evolution, this is tracked as a possible future system on the Updates page.
Collection & Faction
Runic Locket belongs to the Fortune collection โ one of the thematic groupings used across the card archive. Browse every card in this collection from the main Card Guide, or see the "Related cards" section below for direct links to its closest siblings.
Businesses That Synergise
Click-power bonuses matter most early in a run, before passive income from businesses overtakes manual clicking as your primary income source.
| Business | Base cost | Income/s |
|---|---|---|
| ๐ Lemonade Stand | $15 | $0.1 |
| ๐ฐ Paper Route | $120 | $1 |
| ๐ฟ Car Wash | $1.30K | $8 |
| ๐ Pizza Shop | $14.0K | $47 |
Prestige Interactions
Click power is calculated as (base + clickLevel) ร (1 + clickBonus + globalBonus) ร prestigeMultiplier โ so this card's bonus is multiplied by your prestige multiplier along with everything else.
Best Strategies
- Most valuable in the early game and during a Click Frenzy floating upgrade, when active tapping contributes a larger share of your total income.
- Don't over-invest in click-only cards once your passive income comfortably exceeds your click income.
- Starter Packs are the most efficient way to farm duplicates of this card thanks to its lower rarity.
