Shardpunk Verminfall Special Occurrences List
Welcome to our Shardpunk Verminfall Special Occurrences List guide. The purpose of this guide is to make a comprehensive list of all the “special occurrences” in Shardpunk: Verminfall. To clarify as to what they are, when one the level selection screen you’ll see levels that have a star icon, what looks like a skull, and then circle icons. Star icons indicate a “special occurrence” – to which it will say it in its description that there is a “special occurrence” there. Within the level, you’ll come across an orange title with a dotted outline of the same color. That indicates that there is an event there.
“Turn the Valve”
Action:
- In a sewer level you’ll encounter a pipe with steam that has orange titles in front of it. Interacting will result in a character sticking around for 5 turns to see if anything happens. You’ll then have to activate another valve
Reward:
- – 5 stress for every charecter
“The 3 Levers”
Action:
- In a factory level you’ll encounter a “manhole” that has an intractable title in front of it. Upon interaction you’ll learn of people trapped behind a gate in the sewers and you have to find a way to raise the gate blocking their way. Nearby are 3 levers which you’ll have to flip until you successfully find the right one. They’ll then get “stuck again”, to which you then most repeat the process and flick the lever you just flipped.
Note: The correct lever is based off of the second lever you flip, regardless of what it is. So if the second lever you flip is the middle one, you’ll have to flip the middle lever twice.
