Functionality
Membux are the main currency Agent 8 can obtain and use while traversing the Spire of Order. While their most prominent usage is to purchase various goods at the Vending Machine Corner floors, they can also be used to escape an uncleared floor, gain another chance when all lives are exhausted, or reroll the available floors or items available in the vending machine as long as the respective hack is active. At the end of every run, Membux are converted to points with a 1:1 ratio, or 1:100 rounded up to Prlz.
