Sandustry Artifacts Guide for Exploration

What are Artifacts in Sandustry?

Sandustry’s official store description places powerful artifacts beneath the planet as part of ancient-civilization exploration. They are connected to deeper routes and challenge spaces rather than the first gold loop. Their exact effects should be confirmed from the current in-game item information.

Enter puzzle spaces carefully

Open a small approach and inspect the room before redirecting lava, water, steam, or falling terrain. A large breach can destroy the clean setup needed to understand a puzzle. Keep your main factory outside the chamber until you know what the mechanism requires.

Bring useful infrastructure, not clutter

Use a simple supply route, clear workspace, and only the tools the immediate obstacle needs. Extra belts and loose materials make it harder to see puzzle interactions. Record a working solution with the game version because Early Access changes can affect mechanics.

Verify rewards before planning upgrades

Do not assume that an artifact grants the same reward described by an old guide. Check its current tooltip, objective text, and resulting unlock directly in the game. If the information is missing, mark the reward To be confirmed rather than publishing a guess.
