Shopkeeping

Moonlighter 2 price hints and Aromas: read the range, check the effect

The short answer

The price hint needs known ranges above and below your entered price; a question mark means the required price knowledge is missing. The Blob-Life update also adds Aromas: after some Cheap sales, a shop machine drops a random Aroma from three possible types. Apply the one you receive to a showcase for an effect lasting until the shop run ends.

Before you start

  • Written Steam update instructions, introduced in May 2026; Kingy has not reproduced the pricing UI or Aroma cycle in version 1.0.

Read the indicator before changing another price

The update names four ranges: Cheap, Perfect, Expensive and Overpriced. It adds exact target prices within the Cheap and Expensive ranges as well as the existing Perfect range. A price-range indicator and an exact-price target answer different questions; the announcement does not supply a complete item-price table or a universal multiplier.

  1. Select the relic price you want to check and read the displayed range indicator.
  2. If it shows a question mark, check which surrounding price ranges are still unknown; do not read the question mark as a sale recommendation.
  3. If the interface warns that nobody will be interested, reconsider the entered amount before leaving it on sale.
  4. After a sale, record the entered price and the reaction separately from the final gold received.

Turn Cheap sales into a temporary showcase effect

The official wording describes a random drop from three possibilities. It does not describe choosing from three offered Aromas. Plan around the effect you receive; specific types, strength, stacking and replacement rules still need current-build evidence.

  1. Use relics you are willing to sell at the displayed Cheap range.
  2. Watch the shop machine after those sales for an Aroma drop. The announcement does not state how many sales are required.
  3. Read the effect on the Aroma you receive, then apply it to a showcase.
  4. Check the affected showcase during that same shop run; the documented effect ends with the run.

Keep Haggle offers separate from the ordinary price hint

The same update introduces Haggle Customers through the new K33p3r level. Two customers compete for one relic and you choose which offer to accept. Record that as a competing-offer event when comparing sales; the announcement does not establish that the winning offer changes the ordinary price-range boundaries.

If an online price disagrees with your game

Match the exact relic, platform and version before reusing a listed amount. Keep the price you entered, visible range, active shop effects and final payout in the same note. That gives you a useful comparison without assuming an old price table has been retested for version 1.0.

For a first comparison, use one replaceable relic and change only the entered price. This is a suggested check, not a Kingy-tested gold strategy. No fixed price, guaranteed profit or optimum Aroma combination is claimed here.
