Goodly Trials

Ways to Play

Goodly Trials has three ways to play: a single-player journey, a competitive Ranked climb on that same road, and real-time multiplayer against other players.

Singleplayer & Ladder

  1. Training
  2. Fair Trial
  3. Unfair Trial
  4. Ranked
  • One company, one shop. Hire, equip, place, and fight across twelve trials. Three battles without a win end the journey.
  • Training → Fair → Unfair → Ranked. Each finished road unlocks the next, plus bosses and Deed spending after Fair.
  • Unfair and Ranked raise the stakes. Unfair unlocks Old Man and later leader traits; Ranked starts at Soldier: 200 and moves with each journey.

The multiplayer tournament

  1. Draft
  2. Live bidding
  3. Lock in
  4. Combat
  5. Standings
  • 2–8 companies, live. A host seats humans and AI, then sets how often every pair meets.
  • Bid one decision at a time. Contested items open at list price; rivals raise or pass. Mixed-faction lobbies put units up for bid too.
  • Lock your line, then fight the table. Companies prepare independently; standings run across the whole season until one champion remains.
