The Reality Engine is the super dimensional interface of the AI supercomputer Semblance, who is running the simulation in which the game takes place. Here, you can spend Metabits to buy upgrades that improve the simulation's speed, and time boosters (which increase the rate of Entropy and Idea production). You can also view some stats and the Terminus Chamber without resetting your progress.
Upgrades[]
Schematic of the Reality Engine, with all the upgrades, their function, and their cost. Table with the total MetaBits needed to buy each type of upgrade, as well as the overall total.
Note: Effects are compounding. (e.g. 10% + 10% = 21%)
