STARTER ROUTE
Sandustry Beginner Guide
A source-checked route from loose sand to a stable factory, with the next useful unlock at every stage.
Official-guide basedIndependent guide
Start by mixing Sand and Water into Wet Sand, process it with a Shaker, collect Gold, and route Residue away. Use Gold for research, then extend the chain through the Kinetic Press, Wet Seeds, flowers and Amethelis.

- Core loop
- Wet → Shake → Sort
Your first reliable line
Do not expand before each output has somewhere to go. Sand and Water become Wet Sand; Shakers separate Gold downward while Residue moves away from the top.
- Create Wet Sand close to the Shaker line.
- Collect Gold below the Shakers.
- Move Residue to a separate burn and press route.
- Spend Gold on logistics, filters and the next processing unlock.
Progress by solving bottlenecks
Research unlocks buildings and tools, while Fluxite upgrades inventory items. A compact line with visible outputs is easier to repair than a large line that mixes every material.
