A class is the role you pick before a run in 99 Nights in the Forest. It gives you a starting item and perks for the whole round, and you cannot switch it once the run starts.

Most classes cost diamonds in the Daily Class Shop, while event classes use candy, candy canes or eggs. Below you get the quick picks first, then every class with its price and perk.
