In Chapter 1, players will be boarding a Science Ship at Uranus after leaving the facility, which houses a mysterious tree. You have three options to choose from:

Do not immediately select the Naomi Protocol. First, Carry out Ecological Analysis, which will give you 15 Science and unlock the following additional options:

  • Harvest the edible elements of the tree (3 Cycles): gives 25 Food
  • Naomi Protocol: Cut down the tree (5 Cycles): gives 15 Science, 25 Food, 25 Carbon
  • Leave Uranus: disables the other choices

Harvest the edible elements of the tree and then initiate Naomi Protocol: Cut down the tree. All of this will take a total of 10 cycles, and give you a total of 30 Science, 50 Food, and 25 Carbon. This is the most efficient way of completing the Naomi Protocol as it will give you much-needed early game resources.
