Rockhounds

EVERY DAY IS A PAYDAY In Rockhounds, no two drops are ever the same. Every mission is a fresh contract with new dangers to survive, alien worlds to strip-mine, and a massive paycheck waiting at the end.

• Ever-Changing Worlds - Raid strange biomes, survive extreme weather, and overcome deadly anomalies. You’ll have to strategize and adapt to be successful (and make it out alive).

• The Space Coal Rush - Mine for the universe’s most absurdly valuable resource. The more you mine, the more you earn, but the noise will bring everything from hungry creatures to rival enemy forces straight to your door.

• Guns, lots of guns - Use your hard-earned money to buy the latest weapons and gear from the Megacorp catalog. If you're going to risk your life, you might as well do it with the biggest guns available.

HOW TO GET PAID The drop is just the beginning. The Megacorps sent you in for one reason: to get that coal into orbit. You’ll need to work fast, build smart, and decide exactly how much your life is worth.

• Start grabbing surface-ores immediately. They are used for building, and you’ll need every scrap you can find to turn a derelict mining rig into a fortress before the first wave hits.

• Don't just rely on your gun. Use resources to deploy walls, turrets, and traps. Coordinate with your squad to turn the rig into a kill zone, because when the enemies arrive, there’s no room for mistakes.

• As the mission heats up, the rig will take a beating. You’ll have to leave the safety of your walls to make repairs or complete high-risk side-objectives. It’s dangerous, but it’s a great way to boost your yield.

• Once the silo is full, you have a choice. Launch it into orbit and call it a day, or keep digging for more. Greed is a dangerous game, one wrong move and you lose the entire haul.

• Securing the Space Coal is only half the battle. As the planet literally falls apart around you, you must hold your ground until the airlift arrives. You won't get to spend a single credit unless you make it back onto your ship alive.
