Districts and Their Names

The world as a chessboard: letters from west to east, numbers from the cliff southward. Your start is called K-1.

The north of AZ884 is divided into districts, each 100 × 100 tiles. Their names work like a chessboard:

  • Letter = column from west to east, from A to U
  • Number = row from the cliff in the north southward, from 1 to 11

`` Cliff (north) A-1 … J-1 [K-1] L-1 … U-1 ← start A-2 … J-2 K-2 L-2 … U-2 ← toward the river … … … A-11 … K-11 … U-11 ``

Important districts

DistrictWhat is there
K-1your start at the cliff
K-2the first district in the tutorial, toward the river canyon
J-1 and L-1the neighbors to the west and east along the cliff

The player panel at the top left always shows the district you are looking at, for example "DISTRICT K-1". Hover over it to see all your districts.

Rings

The farther a district lies from the start, the more expensive boulders and mesas get there and the more valuable the finds. The first ring around K-1 is deliberately kept cheap (Boulders, Mesas and Toxic Lakes).

Your districts do not have to form a rectangle. If you buy in an L shape, the missing corner stays fogged and locked.
