Technology is a key component of Goblin Keeper. To advance in the game, players will need to unlock Technologies through Research. Warlocks are the primary Researchers, while Liches are also counted as a Researchers. The number of Researchers each Library can support is dependent on the Library level. This number is displayed on the Library Rooms panel. Higher Level Libraries will support more Warlocks. Warlocks will Research at a higher Rate, at higher Levels and Efficiencies. Shocking Warlocks will increase their Efficiency. You can find more on optimizing Research rates on the Research wiki page.

The table below lists the Technologies that players may Research. The ability to Craft items can also be unlocked through Researching Technologies. You may view the Resources and Furniture pages to review which Technology is required to Craft each item.
