The core loop

  1. 1
    Punch the walls

    Hold the punch tool and clear blocks - leftover blocks still gate the next room, so clear fully.

  2. 2
    Vacuum the rubble

    Switch to the hoover and pull rubble into your bag - the game tells you when it's full.

  3. 3
    Sell to your cellmate

    Rubble converts to cash at your cellmate - the entire economy runs on this loop.

  4. 4
    Buy upgrades and robots

    Spend on fist/vacuum upgrades, bigger bags, helper robots and the conveyor.

  5. 5
    Watch for CELL SEARCH

    A red warning means guards are coming - get back to your cell before they find you out.
