Resource Extraction

Embarking on the Aphelium journey entails immersing oneself in an intricate world of lands, resources, and a thriving digital economy. Understanding the core mechanics of the game is essential to making the most of the Aphelium experience. This article breaks down the fundamental steps of playing Aphelium into seven comprehensive stages. We start with acquiring land, managing inventory, and lead up to one of the crucial elements of the game - extracting resources.

Getting Started Guide

Your adventure in Aphelium begins with the account/wallet creation and by procuring a piece of land. This land forms the foundation of your in-game assets and is crucial for resource extraction, crafting, and building. For a detailed guide on how to obtain your land and set up your account, please follow the instructions in our Getting Started Guide.

Once you've acquired your land, it's crucial to familiarize yourself with your inventory. It holds a record of all your lands, deeds, resources, and items that you collect throughout your Aphelium journey. To understand how to access and manage your inventory, visit our Getting Started Guide.

Extract Resources

In Aphelium, resources form the lifeblood of gameplay, used in crafting, trading, and building. There are two main ways to extract resources:

- Work (/work): As a default mode of resource extraction for beginners, working involves offering your services to a random land. Your efforts are rewarded with a collection of resources (type of resources depends on the land), a certain number of coins for in-game purchases, and experience points. - Explore (/explore): While exploration is a more advanced method of resource extraction that requires a specific talent point, it offers another avenue for players to gather resources.

Work

This chapter focuses primarily on the Work (/work) command, a perfect starting point for beginners.

Your adventure starts with you working on a random land. In return for your labor, you'll receive a number of rewards:

• a modest quantity of resources (varying depending on the land you work on),
• a number of coins (enabling you to buy items such as resources or tickets),
• and last but not least, experience.

The Work (/work) command in Aphelium operates with a straightforward mechanic. This command requires just a single parameter: the number of work hours you're committing.

After executing the Work command, your actions are reflected in the game results, which are broken down into the following components:

1. "Job done!": This output shows the number of work hours you've completed and the identification number of the land you've worked on.
2. "JOBS": Here, you see the type of resources you've extracted during your work session. Each resource comes with a defined value, which in turn determines the total number of coins you earn.
3. "GXP": This represents the experience points you've earned during your work session. Gaining experience points is crucial for leveling up in the game.
4. "RESOURCE CUT": This refers to the quantity of resources you've managed to gather during your work session and what percentage of the total resources on the land this represents.
5. Lastly, you will see a visual representation of the land you've worked on. This graphical display gives you an overview of the land's features and the resources available on it.

By understanding these aspects of the Work command, you can strategically plan your work sessions to maximize resource collection, coin earnings, and experience points. Remember, every work hour counts! The more strategic you are with your work hours, the more rewards you can reap. Keep exploring, keep working, and immerse yourself in the Aphelium adventure.

Explore

As you gain more experience and learn the ropes of the Aphelium world, you may venture into exploration, which requires specific talent points.
