Levelling

In Nonograms Katana, you gain experience every time you solve a puzzle, complete a quest or expedition, upgrade a building or throw items into the Cauldron. As you gain experience, you will reach new levels. When you reach a new level, you are rewarded with items and unlock buildings, classes, skills or ship expedition types.

Levelling up character - level 26.

Experience

You can increase experience from solving puzzles by learning Intellectual (skill), acquiring Dancing Shiva (artifact) or by using Cup of coffee (item).

When rewarded items exceed their corresponding warehouse capacity, they are immediately converted to experience points. Most excess items are worth 2 experience points; Katana and Bomb are worth 5; some others probably more.

The exact formula for how experience is calculated might never be known, but here are some known variables which affect experience gained from a solved nonogram:

• Experience is based on a nonogram size.
• Easier nonograms grants less experience (trivial lines, symmetry).
• Hints reduce experience.

And some that don't:

• Items like mortars, arrows etc. don't effect experience.
• X marks or other marks don't affect experience.
• Time doesn't affect experience.
• Amount of turns to solve the nonogram doesn't affect experience.
• UI settings / UI helpers (see Settings > Assist) don't affect experience, except "auto fill trivial lines".

Patterns

Experience required for the next level:
Current_Level_Experience + Current_Level * 1,000 = Next_Level_Experience

Example for Current_Level_Experience = 3,000 and Current_Level = 3:
3,000 + 3 * 1,000 = 6,000

Coins rewarded are calculated by multiplying the level you reached by 2.

Rubies rewarded:

• Every level that ends with a 0 (10, 20, 30, etc.) you receive 3 Rubies.
• Every level that ends with a 5 (5, 15, 25, etc.) you receive 2 Rubies.
• In other cases you receive 1 Ruby.

Items rewarded appear to be always in the same order and the same amount:

• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x
• 5 x and 5 x
• 5 x and 5 x
• 2 x
• 1 x

Battering ram:
You first start receiving Battering rams at level 14 (you get 1). After that you always get 1.

Treasure map fragments (lvl. 1):
You first start receiving Treasure map fragments at level 5 (you get 5 of them). After that you always get 3.

Note: Skills have "lvl." written beside them, classes don't.
