1. What does rebirth do?
Rebirth resets your run and hands you a permanent bonus that speeds up the next grind. You lose current progress — fighters, upgrades, floors — but the multiplier compounds across resets. That's the whole trade: a run now for a faster run later. The full when-to-reset guide covers the timing; this page focuses on the conditions and payouts.
The one-line answer
“What does rebirth do?” — it trades a run for a permanent bonus that makes every future run faster.
2. Requirements before you reset
- A stabler rebirth source — bank a Nest Egg or your fastest rebuild ticket first.
- A read of the offered permanent bonus in the rebirth panel.
- A clear stop condition: rebirth when the bonus makes the next pre-spike grind noticeably faster, not when a run stalls.
3. Confirmed rewards & carry-over
Permanent multiplier
Every rebirth grants a permanent bonus that speeds up the next pre-spike grind. The exact multiplier is shown in the rebirth panel before you confirm.

Post-rebirth unlocks
Seasonal birds (Snowman Chicken) and endgame egg sources (Void Egg) become reachable goals after your first resets.

Faster income restart
With a saved Nest Egg and idle eggs banked, the money loop restarts at a higher floor than the run you just reset.

4. The post-rebirth reset checklist
- Bank a Nest Egg (or your fastest rebuild source) — rebirths feel brutal when your egg economy starts from zero. See how to hatch eggs for the economy basics.
- Hatch instantly after reset, slot your best early fighter into the PIT, and reapply the feeder-first upgrade order from the beginner guide.
- Track the trend in the resource calculator — when the pre-rebirth spike time stops shrinking, the bonus is done doing its job and it's time to push tower floors instead.
5. Watch the loop in action

How many is too many?
There's no published cap. The practical stop is when a bonus stops speeding up your climb — see how many rebirths for the cadence reasoning.
Evidence & sources
Reward behavior reflects the rebirth guide mechanics, the post-rebirth unlocks confirmed by the official Discord community and unlock footage, and reset-timing discussion in the changelog. Exact multiplier formulas aren't published, so numbers shown in the panel are observed, not sourced — last site update August 20, 2026.
