Bunker buildings: what each one does and the quest that unlocks it
- Checked
- Game version
- Update 2.3.30
You build bunker facilities from the Construction Panel, and most of them are unlocked by Jeff’s Basic Construction quests. Several bring a merchant who also gives quests: the Weapon Shop brings Xavier, the Armor Shop Orange, the Gym Mud, the Kitchen Vogo and the Tech Center Xiaoming.
