Overview of Currencies in Robot Hospice

In Robot Hospice, managing your resources is crucial to providing the best care for your beloved robots. The game features a simple but meaningful economy system with two primary currencies.

Main Currency: Scrap Parts

Scrap Parts are the standard currency in Robot Hospice. You earn them by completing daily tasks, interacting with robots, and performing maintenance. This is your primary resource for buying basic supplies like cleaning tools, food components, and small gifts for the robots.

You will use Scrap Parts frequently. A good strategy is to always keep a reserve of at least 100 Scrap Parts for unexpected needs, such as a robot suddenly requiring a specific part or medicine. For a deeper look at managing all your resources, read our resource management guide.

Premium Currency: Memory Fragments

Memory Fragments are the premium currency. They are rarer and are used to unlock special story sequences, purchase unique cosmetic items for your facility, or speed up certain repair processes. You cannot buy Memory Fragments with real money; they must be earned in-game.

Spending Strategies for New Players

When you first start, it can be tempting to spend everything immediately. However, a disciplined approach will help you progress faster. Focus your early spending on upgrading your basic tools and unlocking the first few rooms in the facility. This unlocks more tasks and more robots to care for.

1. Buy the Basic Toolkit Upgrade

   This is your first purchase. It increases the efficiency of all your cleaning and repair actions, saving you time and Scrap Parts in the long run.

2. Unlock the Second Wing

   Spending Scrap Parts to open the east wing of the facility gives you access to two new robots and a new source of daily tasks. This will dramatically increase your daily Scrap Part income.

3. Save Memory Fragments

   Do not spend Memory Fragments on cosmetic items until you have unlocked at least two major story memories. The emotional payoff and lore are far more valuable.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Many new players make a few common economic mistakes. Avoiding these will keep your hospice running smoothly. First, never sell a robot's personal belonging for Scrap Parts. This can lock you out of a special ending or a unique Memory Fragment reward. Second, avoid rushing repair timers with Memory Fragments unless it is for a critical story moment.

How do I get more Scrap Parts quickly? The fastest way is to complete the daily tasks and ensure you are interacting with every robot in the facility at least once per in-game day. Some robots will give you bonus parts if you talk to them at specific times.

Are Memory Fragments shared across save files? No, Memory Fragments are specific to your current save file. You must earn them again if you start a new game. Plan your spending carefully for each playthrough.
