In the Rover Rescue Playground, the VR Rover is tasked with a mission that takes 50 days. The rover must collect minerals, absorb radiation from enemies including Alien Serpents and Spiders, and continue to source power from minerals or enemies to survive the mission. After 50 days, you have the option to continue with the mission or leave the planet and its inhabitants to heal over time.

While this window is open, your robot will continue to execute the project. Select 'Continue' to extend your mission and continue absorbing enemy radiation and collecting minerals.

NOTE: When you select 'Continue,' the enemies you have previously neutralized will be filled with radiation once again and change back to their irradiated form.
