The items in Dungeon Ascendance are coloured differently dependant upon their type. When you pick up an item, it is either used immediately or transferred to your ability bar.
Remember: you can always tap-and-hold an item on the floor or in your ability bar.
Blue background: Class abilities. These stay in your ability bar and can be activated whenever you have enough energy.
Green background: Instant powerups. These are activated on pick up and typically last a limited number of hits. The effect they cause will appear in the ability bar.
Brown background: Inventory objects. These are use-once objects which stay in the ability bar until used. They can be used at any time.
Food: Restores 50% health and 50% energy instantly on pick up.
Misc objects (no background): Signs, stairs and other dungeon features.
