## Gens Tutorial: how it works

The Gens tutorial walks you through the whole game with NPC guides and a floating marker that points to your next goal. Every step pays a reward, and finishing it pays a big completion bundle. It is the fastest way to learn the loop.

**How to open it:** Type `/tutorial` to start. Steve at `/spawn` begins and ends the walkthrough.

There are currently 8 chapters and 34 steps in the tutorial.

- **Steve**: Found at spawn, he starts the tutorial and you report back to him to graduate.
- **Farmer Bob**: Waits at `/farm` and asks you to bring him 320 Wheat.
- **Digger Doug**: Waits at `/mine` and asks you to bring him 150 ores.
- **Fisherman Finn**: Waits at `/lake` and asks you to bring him 25 fish.
- **Tamer Tess**: Gives you the companion tour at spawn.
- **Spawn guides**: Banker Barry explains currencies, Sleepy Sam covers AFK earning and Coach Cole explains the weekly competition.
- **Completion bundle**: 10 Rare, 5 Epic and 2 Legendary Keys, 60 minutes of income per world, eggs, a loader, 5 Tool Perk Points and 25 Credits.

**Note:** Steve starts and ends the tutorial, so report back to him at the end to graduate.

**Tips**

- Chapter 2 has you place, sell and upgrade a generator, so make your island early with `/is create <name>`.
- Later steps ask for an Omnitool Tier II upgrade and an island upgrade, so save some Money and Shards.
- Follow the floating marker when you are unsure where to go next.
