Alpine

Revolutionary terrain change from previous vertical climbing to mainly flat surfaces in open lava landscape. Players need to run more than climb to navigate the terrain. Lava around rocks rises and falls over time - when lava level drops, red hot rocks are exposed that cause rapid burn damage but can be stepped on. Never touch lava directly (instant death).

The end point.

The crash landing area with relatively flat terrain designed for new players to learn game mechanics. Key resources: luggage/backpacks, campfire camps, rope cannon. Main hazards: toxic sea urchins scattered on beaches and slopes, toxic plants with purple/bright green markings, explosive spores (rare but extremely dangerous), unstable bridges (listen for creaking sounds).

Dense jungle environment with higher peaks than Shore. Weather system includes random rain bursts that significantly reduce climbing efficiency on exterior surfaces. Rich vegetation with thick vines, toxic substances, and diverse mushroom species. Navigation is challenging due to the complete maze of vines and toxins.

Located inside the volcano as a massive shaft structure. Players must carefully climb up this volcanic interior chamber. Environment similar to Caldera but returns to vertical climbing mode. Ultimate test of endurance and skill with almost no rest platforms or luggage to open - mainly an endurance and skill trial.

Explore sandy terrain under a blistering sun. Heat hazards: heat is gained when the scout is exposed to the sun. Injury hazards: explosion damage from Dynamite. Poison hazards: scouts can be stung by Scorpion. Thorns hazard: many different environmental cacti that will embed the scout with thorns that must be plucked, Cactus that can stick to the scout, or if prickleberries are consumed. Other hazards: Antlion pits that the scout can fall into and be eaten, sandstorms that will pick up items including the scout, and tumbleweeds that will knock the scout down.
