Building the SOS Makepeace is a significant undertaking, but the rewards are well worth the effort.
Once completed, the spacecraft enables you to journey to the Moon, a rich source of Aluminium, Ferrum and Titanium. Here, these resources can be mined in larger quantities, offering vast opportunities for wealth and advancement in the game.
The Moon is also home to the LYCANOX, a faction of humanoid wererats who escaped UP instead of DOWN during the “origin story” event in 1955.
Engaging with the LYCANOX presents new possibilities and challenges for players.
Building the SOS Makepeace is technically a free-to-play quest, meaning that even players without the Patreon crafting packs can undertake this mission.
However, owning assets like the Rope and Scrounger will significantly speed up the process. The Scrounger’s ability to scavenge for resources makes it an invaluable asset for players aiming to build the SOS Makepeace and explore the Moon.
