## Colonial Membership

Embarking on your Polity adventure begins with obtaining **colonial membership**, an essential prerequisite for any in-game activity. When you go to your first colony you will be directed to the Colonial Hub.

Here, you'll encounter the Colonial Officer, a key figure who not only bestows upon you the coveted colonial membership but also equips you with vital tools—a **Backpack** and an **IDPhone**.

## Skills

Congratulations! You're now a proud colonist of the enchanting Blue Dot-2 colony, and it's time to dive into the realm of skill acquisition. Your first stop is the Collegium, where you'll have the opportunity to engage with a Mentor.

When it comes to selecting your primary skill, the wise choice is often to commence with Farming. This decision ensures a steady supply of food, preventing energy depletion, and simplifies maintenance, given that all farming quests can be efficiently managed within the confines of your farm. This approach allows you to remain in the energy-conserving Focus mode for extended periods while you carry out your tasks.

Worry not, though! Should you wish to explore additional skills, you can always return to the Collegium without losing your established farm. There's no risk involved in expanding your skillset. For further details about Skills, be sure to explore the dedicated page available for more in-depth information.

## Starting Your Colonial Life

Fantastic! You've made the crucial decision to invest in your primary skill, securing a workplace to kickstart your journey. As you embark on your Polity , you'll be granted an initial 2,000 Poin, making it a breeze to opt for local Farming and acquire your first workplace. Now, it's time to engage Focus Mode and claim your inaugural field.

Navigate your surroundings effortlessly using the Decoration tab to arrange furniture, flora, and fields. For planting, harvesting, utilizing machines, and accessing storage chests, the Produce & Collect tab is your go-to resource. Growing crops and fulfilling orders contribute to the elevation of your farming level, paving the way for increased profits.

Should you encounter bottlenecks in processing mills or other machinery, consider upgrades using crafting techniques and supplies obtained from the hardware store to expand your production capacity. However, keep in mind the essential prerequisite: *unlocking craft papers*. Your journey is just beginning, and with each step, you're cultivating a thriving farm and crafting a prosperous legacy in the world of Polity.

## Energy Is Important

Among the initial hurdles you'll encounter in the game, managing your energy levels stands out as a significant challenge. The risk of losing items from your inventory upon running out of energy and facing demise underscores the importance of staying well-fed. Fortunately, sustenance is within reach – consume crops from your farm, gather mushrooms from your colony, and uncover food treasures within gift boxes obtained through production and quest completions. Food can also be purchased or traded, trade with other players, purchase food from market stalls or from stores.

As you explore the game world, collecting various items will not only aid your survival but also unveil crafting recipes for food. These recipes utilize ingredients from your farm or can be acquired from stores and scattered around the world. An important cautionary note: beware of Junkies; they can pose a threat and may even attempt to bite you and drain your energy. Stay vigilant and well-nourished as you navigate the challenges of Polity!

## Completing Quests

Embark on your quests by navigating to the dedicated Quest tab, where you'll find a roster of quests awaiting your attention. Upon successful completion, these quests yield not only valuable Poins and XP but also useful items to enhance your gameplay.

Engage with Droid to receive daily quests, and don't forget to consult every droid you encounter to select a quest that aligns with your interests. Before diving in, take a moment to review the rewards and the basic requirements of each quest. If you're seeking simplicity, consider focusing on filling orders or indulging in entertaining Mini Games, such as the organization of market stalls. These quests not only bring a sense of accomplishment but also contribute to your overall progression in the captivating universe of Polity.

For overall XP growth, immerse yourself in completing quests, contributing to construction projects and maintain a pristine environment by discarding unwanted items. By balancing your efforts across these avenues, you'll navigate the dynamic landscape of Polity with financial prowess and elevated standing.

## Purchasing a Home or Shop

In the realm of Polity, the prospect of acquiring unclaimed businesses or residences awaits you, allowing you to use your hard-earned Poin to make a purchase and infuse your personal touch through decoration. Employ the map feature to pinpoint unclaimed buildings ripe for ownership. Should you encounter difficulty securing a free home, consider exploring residential buildings throughout the colony.
