Spark Quest is an exciting Web3 addition to the Upland.me Super App, making use of and bringing additional value to it’s virtual landscapes.
Step 1: Build A Base
Creating a Base is the first step in building a profitable Space Empire in Spark Quest.
Benefits of Bases: Bases earn UPX by attracting visitors to your properties (other players, as attackers that must visit your base to earn resources on Spark Quest), earning you UPX from visitor fees. Colonies, Moons, Planets and Extreme Planets earn UPX in additional ways. This guide will help you build your way up.
Resources Needed to Build A Base: 100,000 Sparkles, 20 people, 20 DronBots & 40 Supplies.
How to Collect Needed Resources: Attack other players bases here for all resources needed. You can also collect Sparkles by playing the Spark Quest’s Asteroid Mini Game.
Attacks
During ATTACKS. The Spark Quest algorithm gives Attackers resources collected from the mine being attacked. The Spark Quest algorithm also REPLENISHES the mines losses at a variable rate.
Protecting a base that is about to get wiped out from attacks (by losing a certain amount of it’s resources). In the future, a mine will lose its status if it falls below certain levels.
Attacks can reward the attacker Sparkles, People, DronBots, Supplies and UPX. The main point of attacks are to gain resources needed to build Bases, Colonies, Moons, Planets and Extreme Planets. Occasionally an Attack will collect a Motherload of UPX. There are rare loot chests throughout various mines, the current UPX Motherloads hidden within mines are listed on the sidebar of the Spark Quest dashboard.
Step 2: Build A Colony
A Colony can be build when you have: 500,000 Sparkles, 200 People, 200 DronBots, 400 Supplies.
Benefits of Colonies: Colonies can earn UPX when another player purchases resources to build a Base from Spark Quests SQUi page and pays with UPX. The odds of a colony earning UPX from another players UPX purchase depends on the number of active Colonies. You Colony will lose some resources if it is randomly chosen to be used for creation of the players Base (that they purchased with UPX). It will then slowly regenerate the resources over time. Colonies also earn UPX by attracting visitors to your properties (other players, as attackers that must visit your base to earn resources on Spark Quest), earning you UPX from visitor fees. Moons, Planets and Extreme Planets earn UPX in additional ways.
Hierarchy
There are a total of five different civilizations that can be built. Each requires more resources then the last to build. The greater you Space Civilization, the greater the UPX and Sparkle earning potential.
Base, Colony, Moon, Planet, Extreme Planet.
Extreme Planets Are The Ultimate & May Be Limited of Time
Extreme Planets can earn a cut of sales of SQui Upgrades purchased with UPX. The exact odds are not published and are dependent on amount of Extreme Planets the Sales Randomizer has to choose from. Extreme Planets are the top of the hierarchy out of all the Space Civilization types.
SQUi (SPARK QUEST UPLAND inhabitable)
A SQUi is a plot of land you own in the Upland.me Super App that you can inhabit (build bases & colonies on).
Future Updates
Speaking with the creator of Spark Quest, he let me know that he is considering adding automatic Sparkle Mining earnings from the various Space Civilizations in the near future. It’s not clear if all Space Civilization levels would auto mine and/or how much they Sparkles they would mine.
Supplies Needed For Various Space Civilizations
BASE – 100,000 SPARKLES, 20 People, 20 DronBots, 40 Supplies
EXTREME PLANET – 10,000,000 SPARKLES outfits a PLANET with 2,000,000 People, 2,000,000 DronBots, 4,000,000 Supplies.
Transports – Spendable Balance
You can spend the Sparkles found in your Transports to buy bases/conlonies/planets/extreme planets.
You can spend all of the other items in your Transports to upgrade your mines.
Transports hold the various resources. In a upcoming update transports & will be used to transport & refill mines with resources. Spark Quest will continue to put out updates and improvements. Right now we are in some of the earliest days of Spark Quest, a perfect time to get a head start in developing Space Civilizations.
I am tracking some of my personal Spark Quest data and earnings in this section. It will help me understand earnings better.

I recently tried out The X shooting range mini game which is accessible through Upland.me’s metaverse. It’s a well crafted game with extraordinary graphics and competitive first person gameplay. The reason I would categorize it as a mini game at this time, is because it only consists of a small shooting range and the activity takes about 3-5 minutes to complete.
To play you will need to send your Upland.me block explorer to the “THE X POLEMO RANGE” located at 3000 EAST PIONEER PKWY, ARLINGTON within the Upland.me metaverse. I just wanted to jump in and play. However my Block Explorer was in Miami (Not super far away from Texas, but still a 20 minute upx paid flight.). As frustrating as this is, Polemo Games are pioneers in Upland.me and blazing a trail for future developers to follow.
I arrived in Texas and tried sending my block explorer to the “THE X POLEMO RANGE” located at 3000 EAST PIONEER PKWY, ARLINGTON. It said this was not possible. I figured out I needed to now take a upx paid train to travel to Arligton. This took more time and more UPX. I think when high quality games enter Upland.me, it is important for them to make their in location within Upland easy to access. I hope to see more Polemo Metafort locations in various large states within Upland.me in the future.
I did it, I finally arrived at the legendary “THE X POLEMO RANGE” located at 3000 EAST PIONEER PKWY, ARLINGTON. It was time to get my hands on some exclusive weapon packs. I had heard that weapons would be visible within the Upland Metaverse under assets. I also heard of an exclusive “The X” block explorer you could unlock. I was getting so excited!
I purchased one of each gun pack. You can watch the Gun Pack openings in this video. These The X Gun Packs included Basic, Premium and Elite. In my experience I would recommend purchasing only the Elite Gun Packs.
I love the line up of guns Polemo Games has brought into The X. They based each gun off real existing fire arms. My favorite line up of guns you can get would have to be the various variants of the pistols. Wow, just look at them camos!
Now that I got my own special guns from The X Gun Packs it was time to take to the range. I paid a 1,000 UPX fee to enter the current tournament. I didn’t know what to expect. I shot precise accurate shots with my pistol and sniper rifle. I just blasted away with my machine gun, spraying targets and everything in between.
When I completed the match my score was not to my liking. I went back and watched the footage to understand how I could improve. I noticed that the number of targets remaining for the machine gun segment of the shooting range was well above zero. I had not shot all the available targets. The reasoning? I was spraying my clips empty, without taking my finger off the trigger. I plan to go back and shoot one target at a time with my machine gun to improve this overall score.
As far as in game (in Upland.me) The X assets or block explorers, I have not noticed any hit my account since the Gun Pack purchases. Perhaps these can be obtained another way, through contests or a future update. Polemo Games stated that earned XP in game could be used in future game updates to level up weapon attributes. It’s exciting to see such a graphically pleasing first person shooter enter the Upland Metaverse. It plays well with smooth controls and who knows.. with future updates it may go from mini game, to major game.
I went back to The X Polemo Firing Range. I entered the tournament again. I slowed down with the machine gun. I took my time and hit more targets. Did I hit all of them that I could? No. But did I improve me score? Yes! I now rank 2nd place instead of dead last (which is 3rd at the time to be fair.). I also took my time and began to take headshots with the sniper rifle. I noticed this changed my XP gain from 35 to 50. Im not sure if this effected my final score.
As mentioned I took down a lot more machine gun targets taking my time, however I did seem to run out of time (or was is ammunition I ran out of)? I need to study the mechanics of the game more closely to figure this out. If you know, drop a comment down below.
In the vibrant and peculiar universe of Upland, there dwelled a heroic adventurer known as MrAlanC. His heart, as big as the digital landscape he traversed, beat with the rhythm of courage and determination. MrAlanC’s quest was nothing short of extraordinary – to conquer 30 levels spread across three fantastical worlds and reunite with his cherished puppy, Scrappy Doo, and the love of his life, Jane.
The journey began in the Alien Abode, a world teeming with extraterrestrial oddities. Level 1 threw MrAlanC into a cosmic shuffle with aliens flying way to fast in strange flying machines. Our hero, equipped with a flame launcher sprinted through each level with unmatched finesse.
As MrAlanC delved deeper, he encountered Level 11, where mischievous intergalactic mice armed with cheesy jokes awaited. Undeterred, MrAlanC outwitted the cosmic rodents with his quick wit and a pocket full of digital cheese, leaving the mice in fits of laughter.
Finally, after overcoming aliens, mice, and goblins, MrAlanC stood before the gates of his beloved Scrappy Doo and the awaiting embrace of Jane. The reunion was filled with joy, laughter, and the unmistakable warmth of true love.
And so, in the vast and wondrous world of Upland, MrAlanC’s heroic journey became a legend, whispered through the digital landscapes. His courage, wit, and unyielding determination had not only conquered 30 levels but also brought laughter and love to the hearts of those who followed his epic adventure.
