This is the og chart i made to show it easily. Includes DLC and Insane mode Characters.

Every GREEN LINE simulates you beating the game (every boss and level, excluding arenas) and defeating The Evil Wizard.

Each character unlock starts on the left side and moves to the right side. Each section represents a different way you have to unlock the characters in that section.


P.S. Swampy Arena Is the Peasant Arena. Mixed the names up. My bad.

The Arenas, Barbarian Boss unlock characters, but in order to get the ones afterwards you have to beat the game
Example: Beat the barbarian boss to unlock Grey knight > Beat the game with the Grey knight to unlock stove fact.

*Some of the names may be wrong and the larger guide has the correct names*
*This section is now outdated due to Painter Boss's Paradise*

Please continue below
