== Overview ==
== Overview ==
'''Desert Adventure''' is one of the three quests listed in the Quest Journal, where its name appears verbatim ([[:File:Quest journal.png]]; verified in-game, July 2026). Opening the entry shows a detail view with the status label "Not started" and a single stated objective ([[:File:Desert Adventure journal entry.png]], captured 2026-07-05). The quest had not been started at the time of capture; its start trigger, requirements, steps, and rewards remain undocumented.
'''Desert Adventure''' was one of the three quests listed in the Quest Journal since at least July 2026, and its stated objective — "Find the hidden oasis in the desert." — sat as this wiki's longest-running open bounty: the community was notably secretive about it, and no public solution was known for months. That changed 2026-08-26, when a full written walkthrough credited to '''@semkr''' began circulating in the community Telegram channel; it was followed and confirmed step-by-step in-game the same day. The quest is now fully documented below.


In the journal list the entry renders red, while the two completed quests ([[Star's Tutorial]] and [[Colt 45]]) render green — consistent with red marking an incomplete quest and green a completed one. The detail view's "Not started" label matches that reading, though no color legend has been observed, so it remains an inference.

== Objective ==
== Objective ==
Line 30: Line 28:
<blockquote>Find the hidden oasis in the desert.</blockquote>
<blockquote>Find the hidden oasis in the desert.</blockquote>


This is the game's own statement tying the quest to the hidden oasis. The oasis's location has not been documented — see the hidden-oasis entry on [[Locations]] — and finding it remains the open bounty for this quest.
Completing the quest below unlocks access to the Oasis — see [[Locations]] for its confirmed position.


== Known Progress ==
== Requirements ==
[[Buns Detec|Detec]] asks to be brought crushed weed ([[Crushed Energy Weed]]) — verified in-game, July 2026. It is made by using a [[Mortar and Pestle]] on [[Energy Weed]]. Where to obtain the Mortar and Pestle has not been documented. Whether the quest journal reflects this as a step has not been recorded.
* 5 [[Strength]]
* Ability to defeat a high-level enemy — the guide states this generically as "a level 80 enemy." The quest itself has the player fight a [[Mutant Slimer]] (step 12 below), which Alex's own in-game combat log puts at level 82; this requirement most likely refers to that fight rather than a separate, unnamed enemy, but that reading is an inference, not stated outright in the guide.
* 3 [[Tin Ore]]
* 2 [[Log]]s
* A few free inventory slots

* A teleport to [[Greentown]]
* A teleport to [[Apache]]

The Tin Ore and Logs are consumed during the quest itself (step 9); they do not need to be gathered in advance beyond having them in inventory at that point.


== Hints ==
== Walkthrough ==
The four NPC dialogue lines below were transcribed in-game (July 2026) and are read by players as hints (Detec's involvement has since been confirmed in play — see Known Progress) for this quest. None of the lines names the quest or states any connection to it — that reading is the community's, not the game's. The community has been notably secretive about this quest, and no public solution is known as of July 2026.
Confirmed in-game, 2026-08-26, following @semkr's Telegram guide:

== Unresolved: Pre-Walkthrough Hint Material ==
Before this walkthrough was known, this wiki documented four NPC dialogue lines (from [[Buns Kev]], [[Buns Detec]], [[Buns Orange]], and [[Payasan]] NPCs) that players read as hints toward Desert Adventure, plus a report that [[Buns Detec]] asks to be brought [[Crushed Energy Weed]]. '''None of that material appears anywhere in the now-fully-confirmed 15-step walkthrough above.''' It is kept below as a historical record, but its actual relationship to this quest — if any — is now unresolved: it may be unrelated flavor dialogue, a red herring, or tied to some other unconfirmed feature. Treat the walkthrough above as the authoritative source for how to complete Desert Adventure.

Overview

Desert Adventure was one of the three quests listed in the Quest Journal since at least July 2026, and its stated objective — "Find the hidden oasis in the desert." — sat as this wiki's longest-running open bounty: the community was notably secretive about it, and no public solution was known for months. That changed 2026-08-26, when a full written walkthrough credited to @semkr began circulating in the community Telegram channel; it was followed and confirmed step-by-step in-game the same day. The quest is now fully documented below.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
The Desert Adventure journal detail view, captured 2026-07-05, from before the walkthrough was known: status "Not started" and the objective "Find the hidden oasis in the desert."

Objective

The journal entry states one objective, verbatim (verified in-game, July 2026):

Find the hidden oasis in the desert.

Completing the quest below unlocks access to the Oasis — see Locations for its confirmed position.

Requirements

  • 5 Strength
  • Ability to defeat a high-level enemy — the guide states this generically as "a level 80 enemy." The quest itself has the player fight a Mutant Slimer (step 12 below), which Alex's own in-game combat log puts at level 82; this requirement most likely refers to that fight rather than a separate, unnamed enemy, but that reading is an inference, not stated outright in the guide.
  • 3 Tin Ore
  • 2 Logs
  • A few free inventory slots

Recommended, not required:

The Tin Ore and Logs are consumed during the quest itself (step 9); they do not need to be gathered in advance beyond having them in inventory at that point.

Unresolved: Pre-Walkthrough Hint Material

Before this walkthrough was known, this wiki documented four NPC dialogue lines (from Buns Kev, Buns Detec, Buns Orange, and Payasan NPCs) that players read as hints toward Desert Adventure, plus a report that Buns Detec asks to be brought Crushed Energy Weed. None of that material appears anywhere in the now-fully-confirmed 15-step walkthrough above. It is kept below as a historical record, but its actual relationship to this quest — if any — is now unresolved: it may be unrelated flavor dialogue, a red herring, or tied to some other unconfirmed feature. Treat the walkthrough above as the authoritative source for how to complete Desert Adventure.

Bring Detec crushed weed (unresolved relationship to this quest)

Unverified

Kev — at the desert bank:

Kev: A clue is just an object that has started believing in itself.
Verified

Detec — near the desert bank; the NPC resembles a detective:

Detec: If I knew, the case would know that I knew. Then where would we be? Surrounded by evidence with motive.
Verified

Orange — location not recorded:

Orange: Walk carefully. This village has the expression of a witness.
Verified

Payasan NPCs — the snow area east of the desert lake:

Payasan: Payasan is the waiting. Paya pulls rain from no-rain, damp from no-damp. Endless. Not for your hands.
