Sultan’s Game Anniversary Update Malkina: The Taste of Becoming God

Sultan’s Game anniversary update has further enriched Malkina’s storyline, and story-wise, it is related to the true ending of the game. For the longest time, Malkina, the makeup artist, seems to be sidelined. But after this update, players can advance her makeup skills, as well as let her dress Arzu as a god, foretelling the most difficult endings in Sultan’s Game, the God-becoming endings, such as Manifestations of Gods. This guide explains how to finish Malkina’s storyline and how her plot is related to the true ending.

How to Start Malkina’s Storyline?

Sultan’s Game anniversary update Malkina storyline requires both the character Malkina and the Glimpse of God to be activated. If players only activate Malkina, they can finish the first half of her story. But for the second half and the Bond of Fate, players need to proceed until after the Battle of Soul, which is a critical event after the Glimpse of God is activated.

Enlighten Malkina Before Battle of the Soul

Players need to finish a series of Malkina’s events before the Battle of the Soul (also called Battle of the Mind XVI ). It’s relatively easy to finish, and it is highly recommended if players are trying to reach the God- becoming endings (such as Manifestations of Gods).

1. Tailor Shop: Drag Malkina to Methinks, and put on makeup for any followers.
2. A pop-up window shows that Malkina has quarrels with a man. Choose any of the first three options to continue.
3. The Makeup Artist’s Visit: Send any follower to finish the event. Obtain the item Study of Makeup.
4. Drag Study of Makeup to Methinks 8 times to finish all the studies. Each kind of study needs to be conducted twice.
5. The Look of Kindness: Qais, Lumera, Maggie, Alim, or Arzu can give Malkina inspiration.
6. The Look of Power: Send Arzu to tell any story about power twice.
7. The Look of Evil: Nayla, Jawad, Alim, Arzu, Amur, Jemor, and Hamar can give Malkina inspiration.
8. The Look of Chivalry: Roaming Swordsman, Jemor, Hamar, Raed, and Arzu can give Malkina inspiration.

Note: Battle of the Soul is an anniversary update leading to the true ending of Sultan’s Game. The true endings require characters with Bond of Fate, and Malkina is one of the easiest ways to secure one.

Achieve Bond of Fate with Malkina

The second part of Malkina’s storyline continues after the Battle of the Soul. If players did not activate the Glimpse of God, they cannot continue this part of the story.

2. Divine Attendant: Choose a follower who has the Bond of Fate to be Arzu’s attendant.
3. First Taste of Divine Power: Choose any Sultan’s card and send Arzu and the divine attendant to complete this event.

Note: Players can achieve some special endings in the game if Arzu finishes Malkina’s storyline. (Updating)

Is Sultan’s Game Anniversary Update Malkina Storyline Worth Playing?

Compared to the previous major update on Samir’s, Raed’s, and Jenna’s storyline, Malkina’s storyline does not add any new functions to the characters. And it does not feature any growth or revelation about this character either.

However, if players need to have one more follower who has a Bond of Fate tag, they can consider Malkina because the storyline is relatively simple and short. The true ending, Manifestations of Gods, requires characters with the Bond of Fate, and Malkina (together with other followers from Fate’s Ledger) is particularly useful in one of the events in the God-becoming endings.

The update on Malkina is closely related to the added endings. The event, First Taste of Divine Power, is also foretelling the God-becoming endings. All in all, it is worth going through if players are aiming for the God-becoming endings, which feature multiple branches, including the Manifestations of Gods ending.
