King's Well Mini Update Adds Mid-Run Saves and Fixes Merchant's Badge

King's Well now features an automated mid-run save system alongside a fix for the Merchant’s Badge relic discount.

Fire Brick Games has rolled out a mini update for King's Well focused on a requested feature and a prominent item bug. Players can now safely step away from active runs.

Mid-Run Save System

The game now automatically creates a save file whenever you select a node and finishes another save after you complete it. Selecting Quit Game or Return to Menu lets you load back in later using the Continue button from the main menu. Choosing End Run deletes the active save file permanently.

Relic and Localization Fixes

The Merchant’s Badge relic has been fixed so it now correctly applies its intended discount to shop items. Additionally, the developers implemented several minor localization improvements.

Why this patch matters

Adding mid-run saves removes friction for King's Well, letting players break up long sessions without losing progress.
