Field guide to The Bazaar, the Tempo game. Not the restaurant, the magazine, or Cafe Bazaar.

Use the database for numbers and the wiki for old explanations. Mixing them is how $0 and version 2.5.0 leak into new guides.

What each one is good for

thebazaar.wiki.gg says it was updated to 2.5.0 on 21 May 2025, last edited December 2025, and that it is not up to date. It still calls the game free-to-play and still marks Jules and Stelle as unreleased. Both of those are wrong against Steam. Keep the wiki for enchantment definitions and hero nicknames, then check the date.

bazaardb.gg is the 20.1 card set I cite for items, merchants, monsters, and events. Reddit is r/PlayTheBazaar, useful for how players name an icon, not for a price. Discord is discord.com/invite/playthebazaar. I did not log in, so I only know the invite URL resolves as an invite. BazaarForge, linked from the old wiki home, returned 404 on 8 Nov 2026. I am not sending you there.

Questions

Is there a Chinese wiki?

Not on wiki.gg. The Simplified Chinese store title is 大巴扎. See the Chinese page.

Which one should I trust for a cooldown?

BazaarDB's 20.1 card, then the official notes if they name that card.
