While exploring underground, you will often run into puzzles or even mini games! Use a variety of abilities to interact with these, and earn rewards!
Explore Alien Worlds
The alien world where you first crash-land contains numerous biomes and hidden secrets to discover, there is plenty to explore. And when you're done, uncover brand-new worlds with more biomes and secrets!
Survive a Hostile Environment
