Speak with Ulman or open the event menu to access the shop and trade your Coins in for Primogems, Hero’s Wits, and Mini Seelie Gadgets, which are little companions that float around you. Unlike normal Gadgets, Mini Seelies don’t take up your Gadget slot, so you’re able to use other Gadgets—such as the Kamera—alongside them. However, you can only equip one companion-type Gadget at a time.
