Mine valuable resources, upgrade your city, fill your vault with gold, and keep progressing even while you’re away. BUILD AN AUTOMATED EMPIRE Stop getting your hands dirty! Your job isn't to tap rocks; it's to manage a chaotic crew of Auto-Miners who churn out valuable resources like Amethyst and Sun Grain even while you sleep. Hire and upgrade your workforce so progress keeps rolling, whether you're actively playing or just checking in for quick boosts. STACK GOLD & UPGRADE YOUR BASE Every good decision feeds the heart of your operation: the outpost. Trade smart by fulfilling market orders and choosing what to sell versus what to keep for upgrades.
