A FIELD GUIDE TO THE GOOD STUFF

A little hunt.
A lot less hassle.

Twenty-four fields across three chapters. A growing workshop. Remix contracts after the finale.

01
Sweep, don't click forever.

Hold and move across the hay. Valuables sell automatically, and supplies go into your pockets.

02
Put your coins to work.

The tech tree has three paths: better tools, sharper signals, and helpful little drones. Yellow hay suits the vacuum, green tangles need a cutter, and charged gray hay suits the magnet.

03
Follow the signal.

Clear half the field for a clue, or use a scanner charge. The needle glows once exposed. Sweep over it to collect it. Salvage, material, and specialist goals complete the field.

04
Take a look around.

Click the farm objects to explore them. Right-drag or Alt-drag rotates the view, and scrolling zooms. On a touchscreen, turn on Rotate before dragging. Use the clock button to jump between sunrise, daylight, sunset, and night.
