How to use the Reconstructor
Reconstructor rooms are basically free revives within a run — separate from Astronaut Figurines. Most players never use them because the prompt is missable.
What they look like
- A small chamber with a glowing orange chair in the middle.
- The wall has a distinctive Atropian totem pattern behind the chair.
- They appear once per biome, usually past the midpoint.
How to activate
- Walk up to the chair.
- Press triangle to scan in. Costs 6 Ether (the green resource).
- The chair stores your current state.
- If you die anywhere in the rest of the biome, you respawn in the Reconstructor with full health.
When to use it
- Always activate it on the way to a biome boss. Scanning in costs almost nothing relative to the value of a free revive at the boss door.
- Skip if you're under 6 Ether and about to clear the boss anyway.
Common mistake
- The chair only works for the current biome. Going to the next biome resets it. Use it before, not after, hard fights.
If stuck: if you can't find the room in a biome, it's behind a side door — Reconstructors are never on the main path.
