Custom Difficulty and Story Mode

Information on custom difficulty and Story Mode in Nine Sols, how to adjust difficulty, and its impact on achievements.

If you find the standard difficulty too challenging, Nine Sols offers a 'Story Mode' with difficulty sliders, allowing you to tinker with player and enemy damage. This can significantly lower the skill floor and make the game more accessible. However, choosing custom difficulty may prevent you from earning certain achievements related to standard difficulty. Conversely, there is also a harder mode for those seeking an even greater challenge after mastering the game. Don't be ashamed to adjust the difficulty to enjoy the game's excellent story and world-building.
