Campfire is a Rare scaling Multiplicative Mult Joker that gains X0.25 Mult per sold card, which can theoretically be scaled infinitely. However, it resets itself to X1 Mult after defeating a Boss Blind.

Selling any Joker or consumable (Tarot, Planet, or Spectral card) will add X0.25 Mult to Campfire's bonus. They must be deliberately sold—destroying them through use of other cards (such as Hex (Add [[Card Modifiers#Editions|{{hl|edition|Polychrome}}]] to a random [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]], destroy all other Jokers Available from start. Spectral Hex.png) or by the effect of Ceremonial Dagger (When [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, destroy [[Jokers|Joker]] to the right and permanently add {{hl|orange|double}} its sell value to this {{hl|red|Mult}} <br> {{currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Ceremonial Dagger.png)) does not count.

Note that unlike most non-retroactive positively scaling jokers, Campfire can be Perishable (), likely due to the fact that it will reset at least once before it perishes.

• Zodiac Deck ( Start run with {{V|Tarot Merchant|class=hl-purple}}, {{V|Planet Merchant|class=hl-cyan}}, and {{V|Overstock|class=hl-orange}} Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Red}} difficulty or harder Zodiac Deck.png) starts you with the Tarot Merchant and Planet Merchant Vouchers, which make consumable cards appear more often, and the Overstock Voucher, which makes more cards appear in the shop. This combines to provide a vast amount of cards you can sell every shop.
• Yellow Deck ( Start with extra {{Money|10}} Discover at least {{hl|orange|50}} items from your [[Collection|collection]] Yellow Deck.png) lets you build money much faster, which is needed to scale Campfire.
• Black Deck ( {{hl|orange|+1}} Joker slot <br> {{hl|blue|-1}} hand every round Discover at least {{hl|orange|100}} items from your [[collection]] Black Deck.png)'s extra Joker slot lets you have five Jokers while still having room to buy and sell with the final slot.

• Since Campfire provides a strong XMult bonus, any Poker Hand with a high base Mult like Flush, Straight, Full House, will benefit greatly.

• The cornerstone of Campfire's functioning is economy. It is best paired with at least one money-generating Joker, the more powerful the better. It doesn't necessarily need this, though, if it is added late-game when you already have a large amount of money.

• Jokers that generate other cards, like Cartomancer (Create a [[Tarot Cards|{{hl|purple|Tarot}}]] card when [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected <br> {{room}} Discover every Tarot Card. Uncommon Effect On Blind Select Cartomancer.png), Riff-Raff (When [[Blind|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, create {{hl|orange|2}} [[Common Jokers|{{hl|blue|Common}} {{hl|orange|Jokers}}]] <br> {{room}} Common Effect On Blind Select Riff-Raff.png) and Perkeo (Creates a [[Negative|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] copy of {{hl|orange|1}} random [[Consumables|{{hl|orange|consumable}}]] card in your possession at the end of the [[The Shop|{{hl|orange|shop}}]] Find this [[Jokers|Joker]] from the [[Spectral Cards|{{hl|sblue|Soul}}]] card. Legendary Effect N/A (Passive) Perkeo.png), can then have those cards be sold for extra scaling.

• A strong source of + Mult is near required to make Campfire work. The single best Joker for this is Flash Card (This Joker gains {{Mult|+2}} per {{hl|orange|reroll}} in [[The Shop|the shop]] <br> {{Currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Flash Card.png), as you will want to be rerolling anyway to find more cards to sell, but other strong options include Onyx Agate (Played cards with {{Suit|Club}} suit give {{mult|+7}} when scored Have at least {{hl|orange|30}} cards with {{hl|orange|Club}} suit in your deck Uncommon Additive Mult On Scored Onyx Agate.png) and Spare Trousers (This Joker gains {{Mult|+2}} if played hand contains a [[Poker Hands|{{hl|orange|Two Pair}}]] <br> {{currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Mixed Spare Trousers.png).

• Astronomer (All {{hl|cyan|Planet}} cards and {{hl|cyan|Celestial Packs}} in the shop are {{hl|orange|free}} Discover every {{Planet|}} card Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Astronomer.png) allows you to buy planet cards for free and sell them for a profit, which allows for more buying and selling of other cards.

• Chaos the Clown ({{hl|orange|1}} free {{hl|green|Reroll}} per shop Common Effect N/A (Passive) Chaos_the_Clown.png) gives you a free reroll in every shop, allowing you to buy more consumables.

• Diet Cola (Sell this card to create a free [[Tags|{{hl|orange|Double Tag}}]] Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Diet Cola.png) and Luchador (Sell this card to disable the current [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Boss Blind}}]] Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Luchador.png) are intended to be sold in the first place, as (to a lesser extent) is Egg (Gains {{Money|3}} of {{Hl|orange|sell value}} at end of round Common Economy N/A (Passive) Egg.png), making them easily combo with Campfire. Invisible Joker (After {{hl|orange|2}} rounds, sell this card to {{hl|orange|Duplicate}} a random Joker <br> {{currently|{{hl|orange|0}}/2}} <br> {{hl|gray|(Removes [[Negative|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] from copy)}} Win a run without ever having more than {{hl|orange|4 Jokers}} Rare Effect N/A (Passive) Invisible Joker.png) also enters in this category, although the player must beat 2 rounds first, but this is worth it if it copies Campfire (the second copy will also scale alongside the first one).

• With careful planning, Gift Card (Add {{Money|1}} of {{hl|orange|sell value}} to every [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]] and [[Consumables|{{hl|orange|Consumable}}]] card at end of round Uncommon Economy N/A (Passive) Gift Card.png) can recover some of the cost of buying all those items to feed to the fire.

• Notably, due to Credit Card (Go up to {{hl|red|-$20}} in debt Common Economy N/A (Passive) Credit Card.png)'s low cost, it can be bought and then immediately sold to scale Campfire with no economic downside.

• All consumables will work with campfire, however The Emperor (Creates up to {{hl|orange|2}} random {{hl|purple|Tarot}} cards<br>{{room}} Available from start. Tarot The Emperor.png) and The High Priestess (Creates up to {{hl|orange|2}} random [[Planet Cards|{{hl|cyan|Planet}}]] cards<br>{{room}} Available from start. Tarot The High Priestess.png) work particularly well, since they both create 2 cards to sell.

• Clearance Sale (All cards and packs in shop are {{hl|orange|25%}} off Base Clearance Sale.png) and Liquidation (All cards and packs in shop are {{hl|orange|50%}} off Redeem at least 10 Voucher cards in one run Upgraded Liquidation.png) make it cheaper to constantly buy and sell cards, the latter reducing the purchase and sell value of all consumables to 1 and effectively allowing you to scale Campfire for free.
• Overstock ({{hl|orange|+1}} card slot available in shop Base Overstock.png) and Overstock Plus ({{hl|orange|+1}} card slot available in shop Spend a total of {{Money|2500}} at the shop Upgraded Overstock Plus.png) make more cards appear in the shop to buy and sell.
• Reroll Surplus (Rerolls cost {{Money|2}} less Base Reroll Surplus.png) and Reroll Glut (Rerolls cost an additional {{Money|2}} less Reroll the shop a total of 100 times Upgraded Reroll Glut.png) make it cheaper to reroll to find more cards to sell.
• Tarot Merchant ({{Tarot|}} cards appear {{hl|orange|2X}} more frequently in the shop Base Tarot Merchant.png), Planet Merchant ({{Planet|}} cards appear {{hl|orange|2X}} more frequently in the shop Base Planet Merchant.png), Tarot Tycoon ({{Tarot|}} cards appear {{hl|orange|4X}} more frequently in the shop Buy a total of 50 Tarot cards from the shop Upgraded Tarot Tycoon.png) and Planet Tycoon ([[Planet Cards|{{hl|cyan|Planet}}]] cards appear {{hl|orange|4X}} more frequently in the shop Buy a total of 50 Planet cards from the shop Upgraded Planet Tycoon.png) make Tarot and Planet cards appear in shop more frequently, allowing repeated buying & selling them.
• Crystal Ball ({{hl|orange|+1}} consumable slot Base Crystal Ball.png) provides +1 Consumable Slot, which allows the player to hold 2 Consumables while still having a room to sell.
• Antimatter ({{hl|edition|+1}} Joker Slot Redeem Blank 10 total times Upgraded Antimatter.png) provides +1 Joker Slot, which allows the player to hold 5 Jokers while still having a room to sell.

• If Crimson Heart ( Showdown Crimson Heart.png) disables Campfire on the last hand the player needs to win, Campfire will not reset, allowing it to be scaled for another Ante.

• Purple Seal (Creates a {{Tarot|}} card when {{hl|orange|discarded}}<br>{{room}} Purple Seal.png) can generate some Tarot Cards which can be sold if they are not necessary.
• Blue Seal (Creates the {{Planet|}} card for final played [[Poker Hands|{{hl|orange|poker hand}}]] of round if {{hl|orange|held}} in hand<br>{{room}} Blue Seal.png) can generate some Planet Cards at the end of the round, allowing Campfire to scale faster.

• On Gold Stake buying a Rental () Joker and selling it immediately thereafter allows you to scale Campfire with no economic downside.

• Painted Deck ( {{hl|orange|+2}} hand size, <br> {{hl|red|-1}} Joker slot Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Green}} difficulty or harder Painted Deck.png)'s -1 Joker Slot and Nebula Deck ( Start run with the {{V|Telescope|class=hl-cyan}} voucher <br> {{hl|red|-1}} consumable slot Win a run with the {{D|Blue}} on [[Stakes|any difficulty]] Nebula Deck.png)'s -1 Consumable Slot can make it harder to have a room for Jokers to sell and hold onto Consumables to sell, respectively, to increase its effectiveness between antes.
  • This also applies to Blast Off ( ) and Cruelty ( ).

• Fortune Teller ({{mult|+1}} per [[Tarot Cards|{{hl|purple|Tarot}}]] card used this run <br> {{currently|{{hl|red|+0}}}} Common Additive Mult Independent Fortune Teller.png) and Constellation (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.1}} every time a [[Planet_Cards|{{hl|cyan|Planet}}]] card is used <br> {{currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Constellation.png) encourage the player to use Tarot Cards and Planet Cards, respectively, which is the opposite of what Campfire does.

• Like a real campfire, this Joker needs a continuous source of fuel to keep burning brightly. This Joker's art also references how the selling animation looks like the sold card is burning.
• Campfire is the only Joker with a buy price of $9.
