My Time at Sandrock (Video Game)	comment	My Time at Sandrock is the follow-up game to My Time at Portia, part of the My Time series developed and self-published by Pathea Games. It takes place around the same timeframe as the last game. The game was released in an Early Access version on May 25, 2022, with the full 1.0 launch following on November 2, 2023.Much like its predecessor, Sandrock focuses on crafting, resource gathering, and farming, in a post-post-apocalyptic world. The player takes the role of a new builder to the town of Sandrock,—an oasis town long past its prime—tasked with returning the town to its former glory. Resources are scarce, and the environment is hostile, leading to new challenges not seen in the previous installment.The game also includes a friendship and romance system with the various townsfolk. Marriage mechanics are also included, where the player can have their lovers move into their workshop, assist them, and even raise children together. The player can also expand and design their house and workshop instead of just relying on preset upgrades, as well as adopt pets and raise livestock.My Time at Sandrock is currently available on PC and Steam Deck, along with the Nintendo Switch, Microsoft Xbox One, and Sony Playstation 4 and 5.Has a character page in much need of contributions.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_1045c71a	type	Dying Town
My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_1045c71a	comment	As much of a good-for-nothing greedy slacker Yan is, he does have a point when he denies Catori's commission for expanding her business. Sandrock is still a Dying Town with constant water shortages; Catori's project is significantly bigger than your run-of-the-mill commission, which includes the expansion of Golden Goose and her Museum. And to make things worse, Catori has no way to pay for it and little chance that she'll ever make the money back due to Sandrock's beforementioned situation. In short, her business is not essential to the town's survival, and she can't pay.

It's heavily implied that Qi, Otaku that he is, took some major artistic liberties with the original relic you give him.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_1527d90d	comment	Early Game Hell: Don't expect an easy time early on in Sandrock. Your 300 Stamina may seem like a lot, but you'll find out that it runs out very, very quickly while gathering materials, and recovering it before you start earning a decent amount of Gols from commissions (or getting a kitchen) is not easy. Your income is also very limited at the start of the game, before you earn the right to take multiple commissions a day; the early quest rewards are more likely to get immediately sunk into expanding your production line.

In addition, everyone in town has some kind of relationship to everyone else, and reaching a new friendship level with one person will reward you with relationship points with their friends. In addition to the relationship rewards for commissions and story events, it's damn near impossible to avoid being best friends with the entire town.

Obviously, some people in the old world didn't take no for an answer when they wanted a meeting. The 'disgruntled' is definitely earned, though.

It's an automatic weapon that fires much faster than the semi-auto Vintage Pistol, and each magazine holds 20 bullets instead of 6. The catch? Its ammo requires a lot more materials to craft, is crafted in much smaller quantities, and takes a lot longer to craft. Additionally, the weapon itself eats ammo like crazy compared to the Vintage Pistol.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_3ed23024	type	Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_3ed23024	comment	Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Critical equipment for maintaining the crops alive is broken when the moisture farm is raided by the Geeglers. Until you repair it, the price of food will raise considerably due to the crop shortage. Similarly, after the train bridge gets destroyed, the price of water from Water World skyrockets because the route from Atara has been cut off, preventing Sandrock from importing water from those locations. Related to the above, train bridges are built carefully and with sturdy materials because they have to withstand the massive weight of trains. When a train that was converted into a weapon—cobbled up together by the Geeglers using metal parts from said bridge and clumsily replaced by wood—tries to cross it to attack Sandrock, the bridge collapses underneath it from the sheer weight of the thing. You take the role of a Builder. Not a Civil Corp. member, not a knight, not a bounty hunter. A Builder. And while said job has its share of dangers, and you have to occasionally tangle with monsters roaming the outskirts of the town, Builders are not expected to fight dangerous criminals such as Logan or vicious mutants like the Geeglers. Needless to say, when the news that the Builder was involved in these dangerous situations reaches their mother, she doesn't think "how badass my child is"—she gets worried sick. That is not to say when the news that the Builder fell off a huge cliff reaches their town, Highwind, Nia had to buy the every newspaper to prevent the Builder's mother reading about it. Eventually, when the water conspiracy is unveiled, Pen attempts to fight his way out of Sandrock, but he has a few problems: he's without his relic superweapon, and he's facing you, Justice, Unsuur, and Logan, who singlehandedly is strong enough to put up a good fight against him. Needless to say, this ends up poorly for Pen. And then he still has the gall to gloat and monologue, leaving himself wide open. Elsie uses the opportunity to bonk him in the head with a shovel, knocking him out cold. Such a thing does not go unnoticed by some people after the whole incident ends. When Qi tries to use his Mini-Mecha to cut the ribbon on the new Shonash Bridge, he misses. And falls out of the mech, and injures himself. His attempts to be showy always backfire, this is just the most obvious outcome of it. When Nia comes to visit, it's a heartwarming reunion between childhood friends (and your correspondence with her makes it so that she's not an entirely new character for you to interact with). But no matter how much you ask her to stay in Sandrock, she won't. She has her own studies and goals, and Sandrock isn't conducive to them at the moment. The oasis itself is considered Sandrock's lifeblood, both figuratively and literally: if the oasis dries up, Sandrock dies, plain and simple. But the oasis isn't that big, and when you get the numbers, it turns out Sandrock imports 80% of their water from other Free Cities. In fact, one of the major, life-altering projects that Sandrock has been trying to complete for years is a road through the Eufaula Desert to Portia, where water is much more plentiful, just so that they can get more of it. The project to turn the Eufaula Desert green is, at the beginning of the game, doomed to failure: sand is an incredibly poor growth medium, and even the process of using straw grids to protect plants takes forever to pay offnote which is also reflected in gameplay. On top of that, the need for water and fertilizer is steep, and Sandrock doesn't have nearly enough water to support their basic needs. It's not until you manage to recover an Algae Producer machine that you're able to create the Little Forest, which is essentially about 40 trees planted on sandy soil that survive, and that's the absolute limit of what Sandrock is able to do with the water they have available. Musa is the richest man in the Free Cities, and he didn't get there by being a dummy: when he's presented with the achievements of Sandrock, he is...less than impressed, and the subsequent chaos at the Blue Moon Saloon immediately convinces him that Sandrock isn't going to make it and he's best served by looking elsewhere for investment opportunities. It's not until he's convinced to stick around and sees the resilience of the townsfolk through the greeno disaster that he changes his mind, and even then, it's only because Sandrock is perfectly positioned to be a central logistics hub for the Free Cities in the event of an invasion by Duvos. He's not looking for a new investment opportunity, he's looking for a group of people strong enough to endure the harsh landscape and build it into something that can help out the rest of the Free Cities.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_3f2503af	comment	Ability Required to Proceed: The tools that you have and the machines that you own determine what you're able to produce. The starting pickhammer can't be used to break up Hard Rocks, which are needed for Bloodstone, which is needed for better furnaces, which is needed for better ingots, which is needed for a better pickhammer, for example. However, there are two upgrades that are explicitly required by the story in order to proceed: the Workbench and the Assembly Station. The Workbench has to be upgraded to at least Intermediate by the end of act one, as the materials needed for the Algae Producer cannot be made with the starting workbench. You eventually have to upgrade to the Advanced Workbench by the end of act two, for the same reason. The Assembly Station must be upgraded to Intermediate to make larger specialty items, which is needed specifically for the Train Station upgrades. Fortunately, Musa won't arrive until you manage to complete them, so you can take your time. Then, at the end of act two, after it becomes clear that Duvos is going to invade, you must upgrade the Assembly Station to Advanced in order to make the Hyper-Compressed Air Cannon.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_480c69ba	comment	Infinity -1 Sword: The Hands of the Light, which you get after defeating Pan in the Northern Plateau Ruins. Extremely powerful, to the point that you can easily defeat an equal level enemy in just a couple of hits, and they also come with a ranged attack that does more damage than any other ranged attack in the game, and is infinite to boot. But because it's a unique weapon with a unique combo mechanic, it won't benefit from any of your combat skill upgrades such as increased power, longer combos, or better critical chance. In addition, the first three hits of the combo are fast but very short-ranged compared to swords, daggers and spears, and the fourth hit has a lengthy charge up that ends with a huge pushback on the target, meaning if it's not dead, you'll have to go chasing after it. Even the ranged attack has problems, requiring a short charge time and being just a little off center from the targeting cursor, as well as being much more short-ranged than a pistol or an assault rifle. In short, it's a good weapon to use, but there are better weapons.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_4ca752e1	comment	Deadly Dust Storm: Every so often, a sandstorm will hit Sandrock, lasting an entire day. During a sandstorm, dew collectors will not work (and any dew waiting for collection will be lost), completed materials waiting for collection on your various machines can blow away, people will refuse to go outside, and nasty monsters will patrol the dunes, equal to your level and aggressively hostile, even for normally docile creatures. You can eventually get a Sandwall upgrade from Heidi to prevent your materials from blowing away, but it costs money and some reasonably difficult-to-acquire relics to make it. After a sandstorm, machines exposed to it might be covered in sand, requiring some dusting to restore them to maximum efficiency. As a bonus, if you're willing to brave the sandstorm, you can find rare materials in the dunes, but your visibility will be poor, and those monsters are out there too. Most of the people of Sandrock will strongly recommend that you just stay home when these blow up.

Once you have some decent tools for collecting, your next priority will be getting machines to make more specialized gear, like a Grinder and a Machining Bench. With these basics, your next priority will be to make money, so that you can increase your workspace to fit in more machines. By the mid-to-late game, you won't have much you need to buy, but plenty of rare materials that you'll need to collect, so your priority will shift back to getting decent tools and machines to collect them. You have limited Stamina to work with, so it won't be uncommon for you to have to decide to focus on getting one type of material that's more critical to your commission or something you want to build quickly.

As much of a good-for-nothing greedy slacker Yan is, he does have a point when he denies Catori's commission for expanding her business. Sandrock is still a Dying Town with constant water shortages; Catori's project is significantly bigger than your run-of-the-mill commission, which includes the expansion of Golden Goose and her Museum. And to make things worse, Catori has no way to pay for it and little chance that she'll ever make the money back due to Sandrock's beforementioned situation. In short, her business is not essential to the town's survival, and she can't pay.

Here, the heart is permanently weakened and results in a slow death by congestive heart failure if left untreated, which, while not impossible, is a very rare complication.

Sandrock, on the other hand, is set in the desert, and the town is long past its golden age... Conversely, the Church of Light and the Research Center work together with little to no conflict in Sandrock due to the harshness of the land they are in (though it turns out all but two Church members are Duvos saboteurs), whereas in Portia, they are constantly at odds due to their clashing philosophies regarding the dangers of the relics of the Old World.

She also mentions both of them, though not by name, saying one always flirted with her (Albert) and the other was really arrogant (Gust). Albert does visit Sandrock later to help with the construction of a road connecting Sandrock and Portia. Owen mentions the Hulu Brothers, septuplets, visited his restaurant at one point, and he dryly says how his heart goes to their mother. Other conversations have him mention Mei (who interviews Cooper) and Paulie (who gives him a book about "manliness," which leaves Owen slightly offended). He mentions Mayor Gale from Portia as well. Mi-an mentions Higgins, saying how she heard of a Portian Builder who says, "Commission, commissions! The more, the better!".

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: The "Crush" side quest features Unsuur hiding in his closet because he's too embarrassed to talk to you face to face. One of your dialog options is to tell him that it's time for him to come out of the closet; he responds that he thinks he's trapped in the closet, and wonders why he wanted to sing that. One of the relics you can dig up is an ancient script for a ''Revengers'' movie, based on characters created by Lan Stee and Kack Jirby. The elite version of the Tripion is called the Punished Tripion, possessing an eyepatch and a crystal shard embedded in its forehead. Its profile entry mentions its desire to create an endless battlefield, echoing the Big Boss's goals. Despite the recent discovery that there is an underground Old World machine that generates water for Martle's Oasis, Trudy regretfully informs Burgess that, due to unforeseen circumstances, Sandrock's water conservation policy will have to remain the same as it ever was. Same as it ever was? Same as it ever was. The way that the Magic Mirror describes herself seems... familiar. Late in the game, the player can purchase recipes needed to make the "Kamel Rider" armor, based on a superhero from an old world cartoon. After the former Geegler boss, Larry settles in Sandrock, he'll occasionally mention missing the glory days of "crushing [his] enemies, seeing them driven before [him], and and hearing the lamentations of their women."

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	comment	Anti-Frustration Features: A scanner in the mining sections that lets the player see where buried artifacts are, and even the exit from the current chamber. In addition, each start of each floor in the mining sections sells consumables that restore stamina, provided you have enough gol to spend, instead of having to waste time going back to town to recover stamina. Certain story missions will grant you infinite Stamina and pause the in-game clock to avoid Unwinnable situations. If the regular in-game time feels too fast or too slow, the players are free to adjust them to their liking, ranging from 0.6x to 3x. While speeding up the game 3x is ridiculously impractical for normal gameplay, it can be good in cases where you don't want to wait too much for something to be completed by one of your machines before resuming your work elsewhere. Normally, you need to manually set reminders, but certain sidequests will automatically set them, usually one hour before the appointment, to prevent you from accidentally missing them. During spars, you'll be able to fight even if your stamina is at zero. Every vendor works with the honor system, meaning you don't need to talk to the shop owner to buy things. However, certain things, like Fang's Acupuncture, still need them to be in inside their job location to be used. They also work from 08:00 to 22:00, which prevents you from having to start or stop working early or late just to buy something. After buying an item in Construction Junction (Heidi's shop), you can use Edit Mode in your workshop terrain. While in edit mode, you can freely move the objects in your home terrain or inside your house without needing to visit Construction Junction. Additionally, while in Edit Mode, time won't pass, so you don't have to worry about losing daytime and having to do everything in a hurry. You can turn off the cutscene that plays when you use the Yak Transport in the settings, and there are two lift chairs once the lift is built, with one that's cheaper and skips the long wait. Much like in My Time at Portia, relationship values are easy to increase to at least the Acquaintance level because of two factors. The first is that story events where the entire town benefits from your exploits (such as rebuilding the Shonash Bridge, and successfully creating the Little Forest) will earn you relationship points with everyone in town. The second is that becoming friends with someone gives you a not-insignificant amount of relationship points with all of that person's friends. It's not uncommon to see a massive cascade of relationship status changes when reach a new level with one person, giving you enough points to reach a new relationship status with one of their friends, which then prompts more relationship status updates with all their friends...In other words, you have to try really hard to avoid being friends with everyone in town.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_e5a93e61	comment	Homeworld Evacuation: One of the Old World ruins near Sandrock turns out to be a spacecraft construction and launch facility. The spacecrafts were intended to carry hypersleep pods, implying that at least some portion of humanity tried to abandon Earth before the Day of Calamity. Dr. Qi theorizes that at least some were successful, and there may be other humans living out amongst the stars.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_e5fd8bc2	comment	Hate Sink: Yan, your boss. Most people have nothing good to say about him or treat him with dubious trust. He's a lazy sleazebag with his head far up in his rump who's never afraid of taking credit for your work. Even the public announcement gets annoyed at him, refusing to finish reading the ad saying "how diligent and hardworking" he is.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b	type	GameplayAndStoryIntegration
My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b	comment	Gameplay and Story Integration: Your machines use water is as coolant because you work in the hot desert. Naturally, during the Winter month, machines will use only 20% of their usual water usage, thanks to the much cooler temperatures. Likewise, story events can affect the prices of goods. For example, when the machinery that makes local agriculture possible is damaged, food prices go up by a lot until the player fixes the equipment. One of the big projects of the game is reversing desertification by planting trees, crops and other hardy plants to eventually turn the desert green, but it's noted that the process is slow, laborious and prone to failure until you get the Algae Producer and access to lots and lots of water. If you decide to plant your own garden, it will take at least three seasons and probably more like a year for a particular square to go from sandy soil to arid soil to fertile soil to biocrustnote which is strong enough to not need a straw square to protect the plant, and it will take a prohibitively huge amount of water to reach that point as well. The only good news is that, at least for you, it can't fail, as soil will never "level down".

The Final Boss of Act II pilots a big Duvos Mecha to fight you and Logan.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_f25493f4	comment	Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here: Mostly due to Sandrock's Dying Town status and dwindling population. And then Logan starts causing trouble. Then come the Geeglers too. Then toxic, mutating, gas starts leaking. And then the Empire of Duvos gets involved. Let's just say Sandrock ends up getting its share of excitement. By the end of it, everyone is just hoping that one thing will go according to plan. Once the tunnel to the Southern Eufaula Desert is completed and the Monster Whistles are installed, they finally get it: the creation of the bus route to Portia is otherwise danger-free!

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_f4fd424c	comment	All Your Base Are Belong to Us: Duvos eventually launches an attack against Sandrock; and without the aid of the Alliance in sight, it's up to the citizens of the town to arm and defend themselves. The first attempt at the defense fails due to a traitor, but the town ends up liberated with the aid of Logan.

My Time at Sandrock (Video Game) / int_f5eda11	comment	Mix-and-Match Critters: Some of the enemy designs are mixtures of two animal species, possibly existing due to mutations caused by Old World experimentation or pollution. One example is the Pensky, which is a combination of a penguin and a husky.

If you choose to beat them up, they'll be scolded by their commander, who will then say that the water isn't for their feet, but for the commander's jacuzzi, laughing evilly before walking off.
