Players control Horta, a Beorn explorer hunting for treasure from the fallen Baraenion Empire. She can use her trademark shovel to damage enemies and dig into soft terrain. The treasure she finds scattered through space provides not only new gameplay abilities, but, just as importantly, pieces of the puzzle as to what caused the empire's collapse.
Travel between planets is accomplished by flying a spaceship between them. The ship lands automatically and safely on spacepads, allowing Horta to exit and explore the planet's surface.

Planet 	Description 	
Asteres 	A major city-planet seemingly wrecked by armed conflict. Nothing remains of civilization but the city's ruins. The craters on its surface open access to a waterlogged cave system. 	
Baraenia	Former center and capital of the Baraenion Empire. Tribes of primitive humans and Beorns mainly called it home, using a name lost to the sands of time. The large capital city remains a blemish on the planet's tranquil meadowlands.	
Friesco 	It's beginning to look just like an ice world on this snowball planet. Luckily, Horta brought a fur coat. There are signs this planet was inhabited; was it still so cold back then?

==Treasures==
Treasures can be found in chests or buried underground. Some buried treasures are marked, while others must be found by solving puzzles or using a map. As follows is a list of every major treasure in the game.
Treasure 	Description 	Location
Ander 	The bright blue currency of the Baraenion Empire, emblazoned with an unknown symbol. It's still in common use throughout the galaxy, so you can expect to exchange some for goods at a shop. 	Out in the open, buried underground, and dropped from enemies just about everywhere.
Cappa Feather	A feather used in tribal ritual prior to the rise of the Baraenion Empire. It provides lightness and the ability to leap to great heights. Cappa Feathers were traditionally buried alongside the bodies of the departed, allowing their souls to ascend to the afterlife and tip the scales of judgement.	On the ground, and inhumed in Baraenia's ancient burial grounds.
Map 	A static map, usually of the immediate surroundings. Most are distinct in style and content. Some are meant for navigation; others lead the way to hidden riches. 	Found in chests, and buried underground in suspicious places.
Water Gun 	Without beating around the bush, this is just a children's water warfare implement. Though it may recall the existence of actual weaponry, it is not innately interesting or useful. The toy can push weak enemies back and put out small fires. 	Buried near the ruins of Asteres.
