Elevator Symbols & Red Skulls

Read the symbols before the elevator descends. They preview special conditions, objectives, rooms or rewards in the generated Deep Layer. These meanings are based on a community video demonstration, not an official symbol glossary, so confirm unusual behavior in the current game build.

These two version 1.0 names are community mappings, not an official icon glossary. The Hairy Goats modifier guide and the older PapaRossi demonstration support the following limited comparison; exact icon artwork and numeric effects remain unverified.

Red skull → Reinforcements. Meaning: increased Corrupted pressure. Next action: prepare before processing noisy loot and keep a clear return route. The enemy count and spawn multiplier are unknown.

Fuse → Power Outage. Meaning: the elevator needs its power restored. Next action: search boxes and lockers for a replacement fuse, return it to the elevator fuse slot, then finish any other extraction requirements. There is no verified fixed fuse room.

A post-launch community guide documents these 15 rolls: Black Market, Gold Rush, Heavy Machinery, Surveyed, Overcharge, Lucky Find, Hidden Stashes, Bank/baseline, Power Outage, Reinforcements, Hazard Zone, Lights Out, Mutation, Nesting Grounds and Rot Bloom. The official launch announcement confirms that 1.0 added new elevator modifiers, but it does not publish an icon glossary. Treat this list as current community mapping, not developer-authored rules or a source for exact multipliers.

A pre-release community video separately demonstrated scattered shop items, a fuse objective, a map room, traps, reduced lighting, an extra compactor, eligible 2× gold behavior and a boarded hidden gold room. These examples help interpret several current names—Gold Rush, Heavy Machinery, Surveyed, Lucky Find, Hidden Stashes and Power Outage—but they are not proof that every demo icon survived unchanged into version 1.0.

PapaRossi demonstrated these effects before the full release. They are pre-release observations, not a complete current icon glossary. Use the descriptions as references; the current icon artwork and any matching version 1.0 name still need confirmation.

Shop items / Shop Cube — scattered shop items were demonstrated. A current Black Market mapping, discount and special buying procedure are not verified.

Map Room — a map-room effect was demonstrated. Its fixed location and a specific map-reading procedure are not verified.

Trap / Bear Trap — environmental traps were demonstrated. A dedicated disarming input, damage value and exact Hazard Zone mapping are not verified.

Lights-out — reduced lighting was demonstrated. A fixed duration or special countermeasure is not verified.

Compactor — an extra compactor or processor was demonstrated. Its fixed location, processing bonus and exact Heavy Machinery mapping are not verified.

2× Gold — eligible loot processed in the demonstrated build gave doubled gold. This does not establish that all currencies double. Do not assume every reward or the full current Gold Rush effect follows that rule.

Secret Gold Room — look along hallways for an opening covered by wooden planks. The location changes with the generated layout; there is no verified fixed route or exact Hidden Stashes icon mapping.

The red skull is consistent with the current Reinforcements label: expect more Corrupted pressure than on a baseline layer. Treat it as a danger modifier, prepare before processing noisy loot and keep a clear return route. The evidence does not establish a permanent enemy count or spawn multiplier.

Black Market, Overcharge, Lucky Find, Bank/baseline, Mutation, Nesting Grounds and Rot Bloom appear in the post-launch community list, but their detailed effects and specific actions are unknown in the evidence checked for this page. Do not infer an effect from a name alone.

Gold Rush, Heavy Machinery, Surveyed, Hidden Stashes and Hazard Zone may resemble older effect descriptions, but their exact one-to-one icon mappings are not verified here. Lights Out also appears in the newer list; the older reduced-lighting demonstration does not prove that its icon and behavior stayed unchanged.

For an unfamiliar roll, check the live objective and current game behavior. This page cannot supply a verified special tactic, multiplier, timer or fixed room for an unverified mapping.

Yes. GRAIN ROT is receiving launch fixes and balance updates. This page avoids exact damage, timing, spawn-count and reward-total claims because those details are more likely to change. If the current game behaves differently, trust the live build and check recent patch notes.
