Official Rulings

  • Yes. Helper Bot grants you a play allowance to play one non-Logos card at any point on your turn. The first time you play a non-Logos card, even if it is of the active house, the allowance is resolved. In this case, you could play a card from your 3rd house via Helper Bot’s ability only if you do so before you play any more Dis cards.

I have chosen Dis as my active house for the turn. I play Exhume (AOA 059) and choose to play Helper Bot (AOA 112) from my discard pile. If the next card I play is a card from house Dis, does that utilize the play allowance granted by Helper Bot’s ability?
