How to Extract DNA from Fossils

Using the Analyzer Machine

The Analyzer is the first specialized machine you'll craft. It processes raw fossils into usable DNA vials. Place the Analyzer in your base or near your mining operation.

Processing Fossils

Insert your collected ancient sediment or fossils into the Analyzer. The machine will break down the organic material and extract DNA vials. These vials contain genetic information from the prehistoric creatures preserved in the sediment.

Storing Your DNA

Collect the DNA vials as they're produced. You'll need multiple vials to grow ancient eggs in the second machine. Store them safely in a chest or inventory—they're your key to reviving extinct marine creatures.
