ROCKS.EXE

ROCKS.EXE is an idle market machine.

ROCKS.EXE is a dark terminal-style idle market simulator about minting resources, entering exposure, surviving market events, and collecting Steam inventory items through timed drops and case systems.

You are not buying and selling in a normal market. You are operating a machine.

Core Loop

• Mint Bedrock and Ember over time.

• Convert resources into Krypto.

• Enter exposure on rock markets.

• Wait for global events.

• Resolve positions automatically.

• Receive Krypto outcomes and possible case opportunities.

Timed Steam Inventory Drops

Eligible players may receive Steam inventory item drops through the timed drop system. The standard drop interval is 3 hours of eligible play.

Timed drops are separate from case openings. They do not require a case or key. When a timed drop is granted, it rolls from a selected Steam inventory item pool with fixed rarity odds.

• COMMON: 78.0%

• UNCOMMON: 18.0%

• EPIC: 3.5%

• LEGENDARY: 0.5%

Timed drop items may be marketable and tradable through the Steam Community Market.

Cases and Keys

Cases are generated through gameplay, usually from attended exposure resolutions. Different rock families can generate different case families.

Rocks do not directly drop premium rewards. Rocks create opportunities for cases.

Cases are Steam inventory items. They can be kept, collected, traded, sold where marketable, or opened with a key.

Opening a case requires a key. Keys are separate Steam inventory items and are consumed when a case is opened. A case opening consumes one eligible case and one eligible key, then rolls one item from that case's reward pool.

Fixed Odds. No Hidden Modifiers.

Case rewards are family-based. Each case contains its own authored item pool, usually including common, uncommon, epic, and legendary variants from the same visual family.

Case openings use fixed authored odds per case. Odds are not affected by spending, playtime, account age, streaks, losses, or previous results.

• No pity systems.

• No fragments.

• No hidden odds modifiers.

• No alternate currency that bypasses keys.

Two Steam Item Paths

• Timed Drops: Eligible players can receive a direct Steam inventory item drop at the timed interval.

• Cases and Keys: Gameplay can generate cases. Cases require keys to open and roll from their own item pools.

The Endgame: The Rig and the Skill Tree

Late-game ROCKS.EXE is not about more exposure. It is about compounding.

When you terminate a meme rock through LARGE-tier exposure, you produce a Core. Cores socket into your Rig — a private mining machine. Socketed cores generate Bedrock and Ember passively, on a per-core rate, even while the game is closed.

• Cores recovered from terminated LARGE-tier meme rocks

• Multiple core sockets per Rig

• Passive Bedrock and Ember generation while offline

• Late-game rigs fund their own next exposures

The Skill Tree runs parallel to the Rig. Progression nodes affect:

• Mint speed and parallel mint slots

• Offline mint queueing capacity

• Per-event resolution windows

• Rig multipliers and additional core slots

• Cosmetic terminal themes and console variants

The Skill Tree never affects drop odds, case contents, or item rarity. Those are fixed.

The Tree affects the machine. The market remains untouchable.

The Long Game

Higher rate → more Krypto → more exposure → more rocks terminated → more cores → faster Rig → more Krypto.

The loop closes on itself. ROCKS.EXE rewards investment of time and Krypto. It is the long game.
