Advanced Scavenging
Duskworks Brochure: "What to bring back to Earth during your Honeymoon."
A Duskworks-Affiliated Settler is seen using specialized wrenches to remove old rover wiring that had been embedded in the regolith.
Scavenging is one of the oldest trades that settlers are familiar with, the act of cleaning up Mars for both the greater cleanliness and for treasure. The treasure would range wildly, from regolith with high mineral content to large storage containers misplaced by cargo rovers or hoppers. Scavenging's legal status has come under further scrutiny as Mars changes its era from the Wild West to the start of the 1900s-style. - Katherine Collins, Duskworks Journalist
All Scavenging Levels can play the Advanced Scavenging Minigame.
Where players can spend their stamina to dig through the regolith to discover items! Earning great rewards for objective based play!
Martians can select themselves or a Martizen they own as the Traveler in the Hex Minigame. Traveler is what we'll call the player or Martizen interacting on the Hex Minigame Map! The selected traveler has NO effect on the game, and solely exists as a cosmetic option.

After selecting your traveler, you will start with 10 Energy. Each move will cost 1 Energy.
The main objective will be to excavate dig spots that are littered across the map, along with completing the optional objectives if you wish. When you scavenge dig spots, you have a chance to obtain Objective Items. Objective Items are used to complete objectives and receive additional loot.
NOT ALL OBJECTIVES will be present on each given map. Objective Items can not be brought into another instance, but can be used in the Metal Scrap recipe in the Smelter.

Hazards linger and will continue to injury you if you step back onto the hex. Hazards are marked with a yellow hazard symbol after being discovered.
