Megabonk Unlocks: Complete Entity Index
Find the requirement for a character, weapon, Item, Tome or permanent Shop upgrade. Each category links to its full database, while featured entries explain the objectives players search for most.
This page is organized by the thing you want to unlock. If you already know the name of a Challenge and need its rules, failure condition or recommended build, use the Challenges Hub instead.
Challenges and Unlocks are separate: the popular Challenge condition—reward—Guide table explains how to complete modifiers such as Fragile, AFK Gaming and Pacifist. This Unlocks Hub indexes the entities and permanent upgrades those objectives can make available.

Quest & Shop Upgrade Milestones
Current sequence: 20 quests unlocks Refresh, 25 unlocks the third Weapon slot, 30 unlocks Skip, 35 unlocks the third Tome slot, 40 unlocks Banish, 45 unlocks the fourth Weapon slot, and 55 unlocks the fourth Tome slot.
The slot milestones unlock Shop purchases rather than adding capacity immediately. See the Weapon Slots guide for weapon capacity, or the Tome Slots guide for the 35- and 55-Quest Tome milestones and purchase steps.
These are separate achievement milestones. Do not use the older “about 60 quests” estimate for Tome slots.
Separate purchase milestone: Purchasing 40 unlocks makes the Toggler Shop Upgrade available for 4 Silver. See how to unlock and use Toggler.
Featured Character and Item Unlocks
Kevin
Secret ItemUnlock Requirement
Collect 3 Leeching Crystals in a single run.
Strategy: The Leeching Crystal is an item that only appears in the RNG pool. Play on Forest Tier 1 where survivability is easy, stack as much Luck (Luck Tome) as possible, and banish other items to force the crystals into your loot pool.
Monke
Hidden ObjectiveUnlock Requirement
Locate the hidden Banana in the Forest map, then find and destroy Monke's cage.
Strategy: Wander off the beaten path in Forest Tier 1 until you spot the cage. Then wander until you locate a giant yellow banana. Pick it up and carry it back to the cage to release him.
Calcium (Skeleton)
GrindUnlock Requirement
Kill a total of 1,000 Skeleton enemies globally across all runs.
Strategy: This will occur naturally if you play the Undead/Graveyard Stage frequently. Once unlocked, be sure to check out our Best Skeleton Build guide.
Featured Weapon, Item and Tome Unlocks
Chaos Tome
Insane ChallengeUnlock Requirement
In a Tier 3 run, fully charge every Charge Shrine across all 3 stages without ever leaving the Shrine aura or getting knocked out of it.
Strategy: The hardest challenge in Megabonk. If a boss pushes you out of the blue circle by a single pixel, you must restart the entire mode. Use heavily defensive builds with knockback resistance.
Hero Sword
Purist RunUnlock Requirement
Defeat any Stage Boss without collecting ground Items or temporary powerups and without using any Shrine.
Strategy: You are allowed to pick up XP gems and choose level-up options. However, you cannot interact with shrines or pick up items on the floor (like the Wrench or Turbo Socks). It is a test of pure macro scaling.
See the complete Hero Sword allowed/forbidden checklist and challenge build.
Holy Book
Legendary DefenseUnlock Requirement
Defeat a Stage 1 boss without taking a single tick of damage.
Strategy: Go to Forest Tier 1 and use the Fragile Challenge as a clear pass/fail route: it ends the run as soon as the no-hit condition is broken. Build reliable ranged damage and move cautiously.
Unlocks FAQ
To unlock Kevin, you must collect three 'Leeching Crystals' within a single run. The best way to achieve this is on Forest Tier 1 by banishing unrelated items to force the RNG to drop the blue-rarity crystals.
The Chaos Tome requires you to fully charge every Charge Shrine across all three stages of a Tier 3 run. You must not step out of the Shrine's aura at any point while it charges, and you cannot be knocked out of the zone by enemy attacks.
You must defeat a Stage Boss in any run without collecting a single dropped item, power-up chest, or Shrine buff. You are only allowed to accept the standard upgrade choices gained from leveling up via XP pickups.
You must defeat a first-stage boss without taking any damage during the entire run. We highly recommend activating the 'Fragile' modifier when attempting this to quickly restart if you get hit.
