How a run works
You drop alone into hostile zones. The clock is ticking, and every decision costs you time or loot.
02
Grab Glint
Explore the zone and find Glint and ammo. Glint is the loot everything revolves around.
03
Fight
Every shot is loud. It draws nearby mercenaries and monsters to you.
04
The mud arrives
A massive mudflow, a lahar, rolls through the zone and fills it metre by metre.
05
Get out
Reach an exit in time and the loot is yours.
06
Climb higher
Earned loot unlocks new zones, all the way to the volcano's crater.
If you die: your collected Glint, medkits and grenades are gone. Only your weapons stay yours.
Enemies that hunt you
Mercenaries
Armed enemies who want your loot. Patrols search for you across the zone.
Monsters
They pour out of their nests in packs and leap out from behind rocks.
On the volcano
The higher you climb, the more monsters storm up the mountain. After the eruption a colossal boss appears.
Gear up and upgrade
- Three main weapons: Pistol, rifle and shotgun: upgrade each through five tiers in the shop, and up to tier 8 on the volcano during a run.
- Enemy weapons: Defeated enemies sometimes drop their special weapon: Shard Launcher, Beam Rifle and Breaker.
- Grenades: They bounce off walls. Hold the key longer to throw them further.
- Crystal zones: They heal you and pay out Glint, but staying inside draws whole waves of monsters.
Four zones, one goal
You start in the valley and use earned Glint to work your way up to the volcano.
Free

The goal: the golden pool
Everything is decided at the top of the crater.
- Capture the pools: take the pools on the mountain to power up your weapon.
- Eruption: after five minutes at the latest the volcano erupts and a colossal boss appears.
- Hold on: hold the golden pool in the crater for two minutes while monsters storm up the mountain.
