Field manual

PC - WASD + mouse, phone - joystick + touch 1. Move around Andora and gather resources: chop trees, break rocks, collect ore. 2. Take your haul to processing and workshops to get materials for upgrades and crafting. 3. Upgrade your tools to gather faster and unlock tougher resources. 4. Spend resources to expand the planet: unlock new land tiles and unexplored areas. 5. Explore different biomes, find new materials, and complete quests for rewards. 6. Carefully avoid or shoo away bothersome creatures so you can keep building in peace. 7. Grow your production: build and speed up facilities to progress faster. Tip: upgrade tools first, then expand territory — progress will be steadier. Welcome to Andora!

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a flexible screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It adapts to both upright and wide screens, so phones, tablets and desktops all frame it sensibly. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.

Field notes for survival operations

• Eat before you are hungry and drink before you are thirsty. Survival meters punish late reactions; the whole genre is a logistics exam disguised as an adventure.
• Build the shelter before the project. A safe place to return to converts every expedition from a gamble into a commute, and commutes are how survival games get beaten.
• Carry less, mark more. Inventory space is the real currency — leave the third backup of anything, and mark every resource you pass so future-you can run a supply route instead of a search party.
