What Are Century Vials?

As you progress through Train of the Century, you're going to receive Century Vials from the Stranger. But what are they? What's inside of them, and why do they glow?

The short answer is this: Century Vials contain Anomatic Particles (AMP). Not much is known about anomatter, but some scientists believe it behaves as both a force and a particle, and that one AMP contains a tremendous amount of energy.

Explaining the Different Century Vial Variants

Different rarities of Century Vial contain different AMP amounts:

How to Use Century Vials / AMP

When you collect a Century Vial, the AMP contained within will automatically be transferred to the Century Cistern, a special Century Vial that lives in your wallet. That one looks like this:

Certain purchasable items and upgrades will require that you spend some of the AMP you've saved up. We're still researching anomatter and the effects of AMP, but for now we definitely know you can use your AMP to:

  • Purchase Portal Passes

  • Fuse Century Train Parts to your Locomotives

  • Forge a Century Train

  • Upgrade Compositions for high-rarity Locomotives

We'll continue updating this list as we work with the researchers at TARI to learn more about this mysterious substance.
