About the Game

You are a participant in a government re-socialization program, assigned to gather resources on alien planets. Using a government-issued robot, collect scrap metal and minerals, sell them to traders, and meet your government-assigned quotas on time to survive in this program. Strategic choices are essential if you want to make it through this challenge.

Exploration and Upgrades

If you have the funds, you can upgrade your ship to travel to resource-rich planets or unlock features that make exploration easier. Extract energy from surplus minerals to upgrade your hangar, expanding your access to more robot modules and increasing customization options for your builds.

Assembly System

Your robot is your shield against the hazards of alien worlds. Unlock new parts and reassemble them to improve your machine and enhance your exploration experience. Create a heavy-duty armored robot to protect teammates or design a robot with a large cargo hold and fast transport capabilities—build a machine that fits your strategy and style.

Strategic Combat

Wandering aimlessly can lead to being surrounded by hostile alien creatures. Carefully observe their behavior and react accordingly to minimize danger or take on threats strategically. Stay alert and calculated to complete your mission successfully on each planet.

Navigate unknown environments, control your robot, gather resources, and achieve your objectives. Never let your robot become a coffin.
