Plan your next Ad Fundum session
Our independent guide helps you navigate the core systems of Ad Fundum, from mech upkeep to base development. By observing how each mechanic interacts, you can craft a playstyle that matches your goals without relying on hidden shortcuts.
01 / THE GUIDE
Fuel Efficiency Test
Run a short dig with minimal upgrades and record fuel consumption per meter. Compare the results after adding an upgrade to see the impact on efficiency.
- Balance fuel consumption with drilling speed to extend each expedition.
- Watch temperature gauges closely during long drills to prevent shutdowns.
02 / THE GUIDE
Temperature Management Drill
Deliberately push the mech into an overheating state, then note how the temperature changes. Adjust your drilling rhythm to maintain a stable temperature.
- Prioritize upgrades that improve mining speed for faster earnings.
- Invest in base improvements early to unlock later abilities sooner.
03 / THE GUIDE
Base Upgrade Prioritization
Allocate earned money to different base improvements one at a time. Track changes in mining speed or resource yield to identify the most beneficial upgrades.
- Each location has its own music, which adds to the distinct feel of each region.
- Take note of each location’s visual cues to anticipate specific threats.
04 / THE GUIDE
Location Atmosphere Comparison
Visit two distinct locations back‑to‑back, focusing on visual and audio cues. Record how each environment influences your perception of threats and resource abundance.
- Observe quake patterns before committing to a deep drill.
- Weigh the risk of hull damage against the potential mineral windfall.
05 / THE GUIDE
Earthquake Timing Analysis
Observe several earthquakes, noting when mineral rain occurs versus hull damage. Use this data to decide whether to pause drilling or capitalize on the mineral surge.
- Experiment with different difficulty presets to find your comfort zone.
- Use the procedural nature to practice varied strategies across runs.
