Researching Samples

From Ardent Spacers Wiki

Samples are unidentified substances for you to research, marked out by a purple lammie.

Each lammie will list a series of practical tasks to complete to uncover information about the sample. Longer tasks will list a code, which you should take to Kenolab to get a detailed task sheet.

Sample projects can be completed once per lammie, so can in theory be indefinitely repeated to receive the set rewards so long as you can find more samples out in the environment.

Completing the Task

Completing each task will reveal a code used to unlock a specific result box in the Kenolab. If there are multiple boxes with the number, only open one!

Take out whatever is inside. This may be:

  • An Objective Marker or other reward
  • Further Tasks
  • Effects for you to roleplay

Deposit the original Sample Lammie and any resources used as part of the research task into one of the drop-off boxes in camp. Make sure to place them in one of the supplied bags to keep them all together.
