Story progression is unlocked in the form of dialogues, item descriptions, and cutscenes as players reach further areas or pick up key items. In Crafting in order to build a rocket for the space burial, players control John, the son of a rocket engineer, to explore and find material throughout the wasteland. As he explores further, players will craft equipment to help him gain access to new areas. These areas often hold key items that John will bring back to Fei Lin, the witch. Players then control Fei to convert the items into rocket components, which will be used to build and launch the rocket. As players search for material, they will come across areas with buildings and ruins that can be explored for artifacts. The dialogue and descriptions these artifacts unlock provide clues as to what happened before and during the apocalyptic plague.
