Rust & Reveal: Restoration Simulator

Search the town's trash and uncover hidden valuables. Restore promising finds to increase their value or dismantle them for raw materials. Put your goods up for sale, negotiate with customers, and turn someone else's trash into profit.

DUMPSTER DIVE

Roam the streets and dig through the town's trash. From broken electronics and forgotten family heirlooms to dusty collectibles and valuable raw materials, you never know what you might uncover.

BEAT THE GARBAGE TRUCK

Trash cans fill up overnight and are emptied on a fixed schedule. Plan your route, grab as much as you can carry, and move fast before anything valuable disappears with the garbage truck.

WHAT'S UNDER THE DIRT?

Some dumpsters hide a mysterious, soil-caked lump that gives nothing away at first glance. Take it back to your workshop, scrape away the layers of dirt, and discover what's hiding underneath. It might be junk, or it might be the find of the week.

CLEAN AND INCREASE THE VALUE

Most items you find are filthy, worn, and nearly worthless. Scrub away years of grime at your cleaning station, unlock better tools and techniques, and increase the value of everything you rescue from the trash.

BREAK IT DOWN

Not every item deserves a place in your shop. Dismantle unusable goods, weigh the raw materials you recover, and sell them instantly at the day's market price.

PLAY THE MATERIAL MARKET

Raw material prices rise and fall every day. Sell your recovered materials right away, or stockpile copper, steel, and circuit boards and wait for a better price. Unexpected market news can send prices soaring or crashing overnight.

PUT IT UP FOR SALE

Display your recovered goods in your shop and set every price yourself. Decide which items are worth cleaning, which should be sold as-is, and which are better off as scrap.

HAGGLE

Customers won't always agree with your price tag. Bargain with them face-to-face, strike the best deal you can, and use your profits to grow your business.

PAY OFF YOUR DEBTS

You owe money to people all over town, and sooner or later they'll come knocking. Pay what you can, ask for more time if you need it, but keep an eye on the interest piling up. Every debt you clear earns you new perks, from a bigger backpack to extra storage space.
