Studs

Note: This page is about both Dream Game and The Forge and the Crucible.

Studs are present in both games. They are slightly different between Forge and Dream Game.

Studs are a stat and the currency used throughout the Dreamsphere to purchase items from shops. A stud is gained when a player's character moves the distance of 1 stud in any direction. Studs also have a physical form which can be collected to add to your stud stat. Some studs drop when a player takes damage; some are static and found in certain locations.
