All Guides

Quick answer

Every guide on this site, in one place. Everything here is written against the Early Access launch build (September 21, 2026) and re-checked as the game patches.

Start here

  • How to Play - the whole loop in one pass: tasks, funding, first-dive checklist and the mistakes that cost runs.
  • Survival Guide - depth, entities, squad discipline and getting home with your data.
  • Tasks and Research - every confirmed task type and how to prioritise them.

Equipment and the complex

  • Items and Tools - cameras, tripods, movable props and the rover, with confidence levels.
  • World and Biomes - seed-style generation, points of interest and the zones past the yellow rooms.

Playing together

  • Co-op Guide - lobbies, team composition, comms and the platform reality (Windows only, no crossplay).
