Dive into the chilling world of *R.E.P.O.*, a cooperative horror game where your mission is clear but fraught with danger: retrieve high-value items and survive the ordeal. It's not just a stroll in the park; you'll be dodging an ever-changing array of monsters lurking in every corner. But should you manage to escape with your haul, the rewards are sweet. The menacing AI Taxman will tally your loot at the Extraction Point, giving you a chance to stock up on survival gear with your hard-earned cash.
Successfully securing and extracting valuables means navigating to the Extraction Point, where your C.A.R.T. of treasures is counted, and you're hopefully rewarded with enough cash to splurge at the Service Station. As you delve deeper into *R.E.P.O.*, mastering the extraction process becomes second nature. What initially feels daunting soon transforms into a routine as you conquer more levels and fend off increasingly terrifying monsters.
How to Extract in R.E.P.O.
In your initial foray into *R.E.P.O.*, you'll encounter just one Extraction Point. However, as you progress to new locations, this number can increase, with a maximum of four Extraction Points. Keep an eye on the red number in the right-hand corner of your screen to track how many drop-offs you need to complete and how many you've already ticked off.

At the start of each level, the first Extraction Point is conveniently located near your R.E.P.O. truck, a constant you can rely on. After your first successful drop-off, the challenge ramps up. You'll need to navigate the level without knowing the Taxman's demands or the location of subsequent Extraction Points. This is where your in-game map becomes invaluable. By hitting "Tab" on your keyboard, you can scout out unexplored areas, helping you plan your routes and, if playing with others, coordinate your efforts to cover as much ground as possible.

The location of the next Extraction Point only becomes clear once you're in its vicinity, either by sight or sound. Upon finding it, press the big red button to learn your fate and whether you've gathered enough valuables. If you have, place your C.A.R.T. within the designated grey area to ensure none of your items are destroyed.
After completing an Extraction Point, you'll either move on to the next one by repeating the process or make a dash back to the truck in one piece. Remember, after the final Extraction Point is cleared and your valuables counted, you don't need to bring the C.A.R.T. back to the truck; a new one will await you at the next location or level.
