The goal of the game depends on the map, all the mission maps different goals, the first one is to dig up 3 skulls, which takes a bit of thought to get them without killing your self, the second is a long drawn out buildathon.
The world maps normaly have a simple goal based around getting settlement points (Gained from selling and structures) or the extraction and sale of something on the map.

This is a screenshot of the map Ashlands with the Clonk I'm using inside the cabin.
1: Settlement Points, gained for building stuff or selling stuff only used for goals on certain maps.
2: Player menu, has different options and shows the goal.
3: The flag, this can be moved on most maps by jumping to it, the color is the color of its owner, I
can sell and buy under this flag, and on non melee maps, so can everyone else (Using my money)
4: Cabin, One of the building types a flag can be put it, normaly used for storage, used for selling and buying once a flag is stored in it.
5: Ranking, You get experience over time and Clonks rank up based on it, it does nothing unless the uneven Clonks is set by the host.
6: A peice of loam in the ground, if you press the dig command twice in a row with a loam or metal peice, you get the option to create a wall, loam walls can be dug through, metal ones get destoryed in 2 explosive hits, including meteors.
7: A peice of gold, when you enter the house with gold peices, they are sold under the flag for 5 gold automaticly.
8: A flint, Flints come in 3 sizes and 2 types Flint, Superflint, Tera-flint then there is the timed versions, when droped from a certain height they activate a timer and explode after a bit, there is no tera timed flint, you can also double dig to activate them while holding them to grab onto walls and explode.
9: Rock, the only way to get rid of rock is to explode it, that creates small peices of rock that can be transported, used or sold.
10: Sulfer, can be dug through to create peices of sulfer, used in creating explosives such as flint in a chem plant.
11: Coal, can be dug through to create peices of coal, used to melt ore in a foundry, or to fuel a power plant.
12: Ore, cannot be dug through, only way to remove it is with explosives, turns into smaller peices.
When melted with coal in a foundry it creates metal.
13: Gold, cannot be dug, needs explosives, turns into smaller gold hunks.
14: Granite, A horrible pain in the ass, takes alot of explosives to get through, produces stone.
15: Crystal, used to power magic towers or magic clonks.
16: Health bar, Explosives,Objects falling on your clonk (Damage based on item and height) Fire or animals attacking hurts you, Going inside the cabin heals as long as the cabin has 5 gold.
17: These are the options for the building, hovering over each one explains it.
18: Clonk Menu, contains magic and building lists.
Controlls:
The controls I use are listed here, but you can change them to anything you prefer
D: Dig
A: Throw/Drop
SZXC: Up, Left, Down, Right
E: Change Clonk right
Q: Change Clonk left
W: Multi Clonk select
Jump and Run, what the hell is this?
Jump and Run means clonks run as long as the direction is held in, compared to the older controls where you pressed once to start walking, and again to stop.
[b]FAQ[/b]
Q: I can't walk right? Whats wrong?
A: In the orignal bindings for some reason Y is set as right, change it in options
Q: My clonk is stuck, what to do?
A: Ask someone if its multiplayer to throw an object at him, or do it on your other clonks, if you have non, move wildly.
Q: The rain on this map just keeps coming, how do I stop it?
A: Rain drains off the natural sides of the map, so on Ashlands at the top it will drain off, but if you dig a path to the edge it will not, building above that is safe.
Or you can make an enterance that keeps the water from entering due to gravity.
Q: Oh god multiplayer is laggy, what do I do?
A: Clonk has no lag prediction, so you all run at the pace of the slowest person, your best bet it to stick to playing games in your region, and as a host only allow people below a certain ping in, normaly by restricting to an area, such as I only allow europians in, you can avoid most lag.
Anything missing? Any questions?
I'm sad this hasn't gotten any replies yet. I am very glad I got premium for this game as it is a lot of fun, and the add on packs make the game a lot more interesting.
Wow looks like fun. Will be trying this out tomorrow :D
Beyond this is also mods that vary from the wild west to underwater cities.
If anyone wants to play, I can host a game over hamachi.
Post here if you want to play.
I will delamore. Pm me the details. I'm new so can you teach me the basics? Oh and I want to work together.
What map is that in the first picture?
The map is Ashlands, and Benzi I might be able to host with you, give me a bit to check.
Other than being the best game, other than Garry's mod. It's pretty fun in my point of view.
How do I join a server? :downs:
[QUOTE=Haxxer]How do I join a server? :downs:[/QUOTE]
Alot of the servers are done over hamachi, so you'd need to be in the network.
Best bet is to host it together with some friends.
Mind if I join you tomorrow?
I like to play Clonk Rage every once in awhile.
It's quite fun.
I'll host a game today if at least 2 people join in, Post here.
I keep trying to play this game but the infuriating controls really turn me off.
It's fun, and it's a fun concept, but damn.

Changing the controls doesn't make the game control any better.
Dela: I'll join.
Oh jeezus i remember that map. I was playing it with Chris and Ja_Cop and the water kept rising, and we ran out of room to build. So we created an underwater base in the ground, and pumped out the water.
If any good players want to play, I'll host a fantasy game (The one where you gotta save the princess) I can have anywhere from 2-5 players (Including me) depending on internet speed and location.
I'm gonna join. If someone will host.
Ah the glorious sub pen.
That was hell to construct.
Join hamachi, Alch one up, you need the fantasy pack.

Heh, remember you throwing the dirt in the acid for experiments? You doomed us all :}
How many people can play this at the same time? I remember playing this way back when they only had splitscreen multiplayer.

I've seen some maps with an upper limit of 16, but that's a little overboard.
If you know how to play you can join me and Golbez on this map, it's a potion making map based around killing the wild life.
How do I join your game? I got the game up and running.
Go into network game, click the one with my name.
Delamore, you're in there talking to me but I can't talk back.
Quite a slow load.
[b]EDIT:[/b]
As much as I press enter, I can't talk.
We'll have to wait till this damn "waiting for dynamic" is done.
So frustrating :argh:.
