Hardmode

Hardmode is a more difficult version of the normal game, making the life of the king really painful and difficult while also providing the citizens with plenty of upgrades and incentives to kill the king. It is unlocked after completing all the currently available Paths in the game. Upon completion of Hardmode, the king granted access to the Graveyard as a citizen, which contains four exclusive upgrades. To activate Hardmode, the upgrade for it must be bough as the first thing the king unlocks. The sign for it is located directly behind the spawn point of the king (Between the Economics Room and the Hearth). If another upgrade is bought before starting Hardmode, the upgrade sign disappears until the king dies and becomes king again.

Beating Hardmode will additionally unlock Hardestmode, which becomes available the next time the player is the king. This can be activated at the same location as Hardmode, and give many more disadvantages during the game. Beating Hardestmode unlocks some personal upgrades and a piece of lore.
