Build your expedition one system at a time.

Start simple. Grow everything.

You begin on Green Vale with access to the early progression systems. Your first goal is to generate Credits and resources, strengthen your professions and begin unlocking upgrades.

Every activity feeds into the wider progression loop, so even small early gains eventually contribute to much larger long-term growth.

Recover objects the expedition did not know were there.

Collectible Discoveries are a separate system from Discovery Upgrades and Breakthroughs. They can only be uncovered by successful manual Gathering, Combat, Prospecting or Fabrication actions.

Passive production, idle progress and offline progress cannot uncover a collectible Discovery. Upgrades, sector advancement, world unlocks, assignments, the Resource Shop, Mini-Games and Ascension do not directly trigger them either.

When you find one, a Discovery Found popup opens immediately and a discovery chime plays. Choose one of three rewards weighted around your current progression, or close the popup and return later without losing the find or its unclaimed reward.

Every recovered object is stored permanently in the Expedition Archive and survives Ascension. The archive only shows objects you have actually recovered and intentionally uses an open-ended X / ? count, so the total number of Discoveries is never revealed.

Mini-games unlock at Sector 40.

Once you reach Sector 40, the Mini Game button unlocks the Expedition Puzzle Array. Each available session generates one randomized puzzle from five different puzzle types.

Complete the puzzle to open the reward selection and choose the reward you want. After a successful completion, the Puzzle Array enters a two-hour recharge before another rewarded puzzle becomes available.

You can still open the Puzzle Array while it is recharging. The puzzle area is disabled during this period and a live countdown shows exactly when the next challenge will become available.
