Kaycee's Mod Challenges
Point values, unlock levels and a skull-board planner
Data updated
Overview
Kaycee's Mod makes you pay for progress in handicaps. Each challenge level sets a points target, and you meet it by switching on challenges from the skull board. Cheap ones like No Hook score 5, Single Candle's one life scores 30, and Grizzly Bosses tops the board at 50.
How it works
How many points each level needs
Level 1 asks for 5 points and level 2 for 15. From level 3 on, the target is ten times the level number, so level 7 needs 70 and level 13 needs 130. The requirement is met once your ticked challenges add up to the target.
When challenges unlock
Four 5-point challenges are open from level 1 (Smaller Backpack, No Clover, Pricey Pelts and No Hook). Tipped Scales arrives at 3, Single Candle at 7, Grizzly Bosses at 12, and the Final Boss challenge, which swaps Leshy out at the end, only at 13.
Which ones to take
Fill the target with the challenges your deck shrugs off. Pricey Pelts and No Clover cost you little in a run you control. Tipped Scales puts you a point down in every fight, and Single Candle turns one bad draw into a dead run.
Challenge point planner
Set your challenge level and tick the challenges you plan to run. The bar turns green when the total covers that level's target.

The in-game skull board has a few duplicate tiles that stack. This planner counts each challenge once and adds up points only.
