Set foot on Kareha, a forgotten archipelago adrift in the open ocean, and take charge of monitoring Ngari, a shield volcano that never truly goes quiet. Explore a deserted island carved from rock and jungle, instrument its slopes, track the pulse of the earth, and anticipate the crisis before it erupts. Measured survival, faithful volcanology, open world: chart your own course, the story will wait. Between scientific rigour and a thirst for exploration, your vigilance will make the difference between a great discovery and a desperate sprint from the lava.

FROM LAGOON TO CRATER: AN ISLAND EARNED IN ALTITUDE
Explore Kareha from the shoreline to the summit of Ngari! Climb through biomes that shift with altitude, from the turquoise waters of the lagoon to bare windswept slopes, past vegetation clinging to cooled lava flows. Venture into lava tubes where the air still trembles with heat, cross the banks of mist that swallow the heights, and let the day-night cycle reshape every landscape. This verticality forces you to adapt your gear and your routes at every elevation, turning the smallest ascent into an expedition.

SCIENCE AS A WEAPON: READ WHAT THE EARTH HIDES
Instrument like a volcanologist! Deploy your seismic and thermal sensors on slopes no one has ever mapped, calibrate your alert thresholds, and learn to interpret the faintest tremor in the ground. Collect scientific credits through your surveys to expand your instrument arsenal and push the limits of your monitoring network. Every reading counts, every misread sign has a price: here, understanding the volcano is already half the battle of surviving it.

THE VOLCANO DOESN鈥橳 WARN YOU: STAY ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FLOW
You鈥檙e not touring a backdrop : you鈥檙e cohabiting with a living mountain! Build a base worth defending, then hold your ground when Ngari erupts and lava reshapes the terrain beneath your installations. Watch for fumaroles, feel the pressure rise, flee in time or lose everything. The mountain sets the tempo; your job is to learn to dance with it before a pyroclastic surge catches up with you.
