Survival mode

The unlocks menu

Survival mode is always played on Medium difficulty and features procedurally-generated maps of the chosen terrain. Only the most basic units, buildings and pieces start available, with the rest having to be unlocked using points. Military Capacity is upgraded with points too. All aspects of the map generation can be customized.

Objectives

There are two types of objectives in Survival Mode.

Main objectives reward progression levels, which are necessary for more advanced unlocks. The following main objectives are possible:

• Survive 15 waves
• Destroy all Broodnests
• Kill all day horrors
• Control 5 units
• Collect 5 salvage
• Gather 500 Wood per minutes
• Gather 250 Minerals per minutes
• Build 5000 pieces

Hogar requests reward points. They can be rerolled but each reroll costs 25 more oxygen than the previous one. One of the rewards reduces the cost to half. 3 Hogar requests are present at any time, and the number can be increased by rewards. The following Hogar requests are possible:

Hogar request	Points
Build 250 Wood pieces	2
Build 250 Stone pieces	2
Build 40 city buildings	3
Train 10 units	3
Hunt down 50 horrors with Bowman	3
Hunt down 50 horrors with Iris	5
Do not lose 20 pieces in the next ways	5
Survive 2 waves without losing any unit	5

Waves

Progressively harder waves of enemies appear each night, with grant points when defeated. The number of directions horrors come from is random each wave but tends to increase over time. After each wave, you will have the option to choose one of three random rewards. You can refuse to pick a reward in order to gain one point, or spend one point to reroll the reward choices. The unit UI will feature a new button to see all currently active boosts from rewards.
