Training Video

๐Ÿ‘‰ The Basics

Enter the energy compound and start a shift to make predictions about tomorrowโ€™s energy usage at your outposts. Check back the next day to see the outcome!

  • Energy usage is measured between 0 - 100

  • Predict if tomorrow's energy use will be higher or lower than today's

  • If your prediction is correct, earn Derp Dollars and continue the shift to the next day

  • If your prediction is incorrect, you're fired! Lose all Derp Dollars accumulated throughout the shift

  • Play cautiously and try to predict if energy will go up or down, earning a smaller reward

  • Or play aggressively and try to predict if energy will land on an even or odd number and double your accumulated award

  • Upgrading the compound will reduce the wait timer between predictions and increase maximum rewards

๐Ÿšฆ Starting and Ending Shifts

To start a shift, pay the fee. The fee to start a shift is based on the level of your energy compound. The fee plays an important factor, since the reward earned for making predictions is based on the shift fee.

Starting a shift

A shift can end in multiple ways:

  • Making an incorrect prediction โ€“ย lose accumulated rewards

  • Land on energy use of 69 โ€“ย shift ends, earn 2,000 Derp Dollars in addition to accumulated shift rewards

  • Make 8 consecutive correct predictions

  • You may end a shift after a correct prediction, taking your accumulated rewards

๐Ÿ”ฎ Prediction Types

Each day, you can predict what tomorrow's energy use will be. Each day you have two options:

Up or Down

This lets you guess whether power use will be higher or lower tomorrow. When using the Up or Down options, the reward you earn equals the to start a new shift.

Even or Odd

This lets you guess if power will land on an even or odd number tomorrow. When using this option, the reward earned is 2x your current accumulated shift reward.
