Missions (J277)

Build your Mission Base first: Collect 4 Wood, 2 Stone and 2 Sticks. Craft Sticks (2 Wood gives 4), craft a Wooden Pickaxe for Stone, then use Craft → Mission Base.
Install at the cyan foundation: Return to the marked build pad two blocks east of spawn. Press F, tap Install Base, or click the build pad. Mission terminals will not start until this one-time base is installed.
Explore EAST →: Once your base is installed, follow the signposts to three physical mission stations: Logic Vault, Memory Lab and Mining Robot.
F / Use Terminal: Stand within two tiles of a glowing station terminal and interact to start or replay its challenge. On touchscreens, hold the ◀ ▶ controls to walk and tap ⤒ to jump.
Click/tap a terminal: You can also interact with the structure on the canvas when standing nearby.
M / Mission Journal: View progress and directions from anywhere; activities run only when you are at their terminals.
Cyber Fortress (1.4): After Network Rescue, pave another four-part stone road. Craft a Firewall and Security Console, set safe access-control policies and investigate phishing and malware alerts.
CPU Factory (1.1): Finish the Cyber Fortress, construct the sixth stone route, craft a CPU/RAM bench and trace LOAD, ADD and STORE using fetch, decode and execute steps.
Advanced Robot (2.1–2.2): Open Mining Robot and use its optional pseudocode lab for WHILE, IF, a variable counter and debugging.
Algorithm Temple (2.1): Complete CPU Factory, craft four Stone Path Slabs and pave the seventh road. At the blue Temple terminal, install a CPU + RAM + 2 Wire and solve linear/binary searching, bubble/insertion/merge sorting, a trace table and two debugging faults.
Debugging Station (2.3–2.5): After Algorithm Temple, build the eighth stone path. Install a CPU/RAM terminal; correct a syntax error, prevent an out-of-range runtime error, and use boundary tests to find a logic error.
Digital Society (1.6): Complete Debugging Station and pave the ninth route. Install a policy console; evaluate privacy, copyright, environmental impacts and algorithmic fairness, then identify relevant UK legislation.
Portable Saves: Use 💾 Import / Export Saves at the top or on the opening screen. Export your normal game as JSON, then import it on another computer. Imported saves include world edits, missions, question mastery and the chosen question bank. Importing requires confirmation and reloads the game.
Q / Exam Lab: Practise GCSE calculations, code tracing and longer written answers. Auto-checked objective tasks; teacher-style criteria for student self-marking on written responses.
G / World Map: See checkpoint status and navigate or fast-travel to previously accessible facilities. L / Learning: Show topic strengths, question history and targeted revision.
Network Rescue (1.3): After the Light Cavern, build the fourth stone path. Head east to the green network lab, craft and connect a LAN switch, router, remote server and network cables. Trace three packets, diagnose a cable fault and select HTTPS.
Build stone paths between missions: At the first gate after Logic Vault, use a Wooden Pickaxe to dig the four highlighted stone foundations before the locked door. Make four slabs (2 Stone) from Craft → Stone Path Slabs; return to the orange marker and press F after each square is dug to pave it. For later gates, place four slabs at their construction markers normally.
Security gates: They control surface mission access, not underground mining. Each gate opens only after you complete the preceding mission and finish its stone path. The third stone path links Mining Robot to Light Cavern. Completed old saves retain routes already travelled.
Logic Vault (2.4): Choose a gate, test all four input combinations and record its truth table.
Memory Lab (1.2): Store data, power-cycle the computer and solve a storage calculation.
Mining Robot (2.1-2.2): Build a loop with selection, test your program and collect all five iron deposits.
Light Cavern (2.4): After Mining Robot, build a third stone path (four slabs) at its eastern gate, then walk farther east to the purple ladder hatch. Press S / ↓ (touch ⤓) to climb underground. Craft 2 switches, 1 lamp, OR/AND/NOT gates and wiring. Complete three challenges using one bulb: OR (repair a failed cable), AND (both inputs must be ON) and NOT (disconnect input B and invert input A). Test each truth table with the switches.
Gate teaching note: Each OR, AND or NOT gate has one output wired to one bulb. OR requires at least one ON input; AND requires both; NOT uses only A and reverses its state. If either physical switch should always reverse the lamp state, use XOR instead.
Complete each mission once to unlock the next mission and earn resources and exploration time. Progress saves automatically.

Advanced Hardware & Security (New!)

CPU (Passive): Processing power! Having a CPU automatically doubles the time you earn from answering questions.
RAM (Consume): High-speed fetch! Consuming RAM gives you a 30-second buff allowing instant-mining of ANY block regardless of your pickaxe.
SSD (Placeable): Non-volatile storage! Place an SSD block in the world to permanently set your Respawn Point.
Firewall (Placeable): Place this block to create a barrier that damages Viruses but lets you pass safely!
Anti-Malware Shield (Consume): Protective software! Consume to gain an armor shield that absorbs the next 3 virus hits.
Wi-Fi Router (Placeable): Emits a wireless signal. Stand near it to slowly regenerate your health!

Logic Circuits & Gates (J277 2.4)

Basics: Craft Switches, Wires, and Lamps. Right-Click a Switch to toggle it. Wires transfer power.
OR Gate (Default Wiring): Place two switches connected to the same wire path leading to a lamp. Turning Switch A OR Switch B ON will light the lamp!
AND Gate (&): Craft an AND gate. It takes inputs from its Left & Right sides and outputs UP. Both Switch A AND Switch B must be ON for power to flow up!
NOT Gate (!): Craft a NOT gate. It takes input from its Bottom and outputs UP. It reverses the signal: if the switch below is OFF, the output above is ON!
XOR Gate (X): Craft an XOR gate. It takes inputs from its Left & Right sides and outputs UP. It outputs power ONLY if exactly ONE input is ON (not both).
