Datamined information: The formula for the cost of buying Bricks. — March 18th, 2026
Brick
"Used for purchases during the Retro Challenge"
COOLDOWN
N/A
The Brick is used as the main currency of the Retro Swarm Challenge. It is used to buy many utilities to fend off many waves of slimes and zombies during the challenge.
Ways to Obtain¶
- Farming in the Red, Blue, White, and Mixed Brick Field.
- Destroying Brick Blooms (Amount depends on the level).
- Slaying Slimes and Zombies (Amount depends on the level).
- 10 Bricks can be purchased for honey near the hives.
- 100 Bricks can be purchased for honey on the left side of the monster's spawn.
Cost of buying bricks¶
Let n be the number of bricks already bought. The cost of the next brick is equal to \({\text{Cost}}(n)={\Big \lfloor }n^{{\text{x}}(n+1)}\cdot {\text{y}}(n+1){\Big \rfloor }\)
where
- \({\text{x}}(n)={\begin{cases}1.2&{\text{if }}n<50\\1.5&{\text{if }}50\leq n<100\\1.75&{\text{if }}100\leq n<250\\2&{\text{if }}n\geq 250\end{cases}}\)
- \({\text{y}}(n)={\begin{cases}10&{\text{if }}n<1000\\20&{\text{if }}1000\leq n<2000\\30&{\text{if }}2000\leq n<5000\\40&{\text{if }}n\geq 5000\end{cases}}\)
As an example, if the player were to have 110 bricks already bought, then the cost of the next brick is equal to \({\text{Cost}}(n)={\Big \lfloor }111^{1.75}\cdot 10{\Big \rfloor }\approx\) 37,363 Honey.
