In the cooperative horror game *R.E.P.O.*, your primary mission is to retrieve valuable items and survive amidst a host of randomly spawning monsters. It's a thrilling challenge, but if you manage to escape with your loot, you'll be handsomely rewarded by the game and the menacing AI Taxman. This reward gives you the opportunity to stock up on essential survival gear using your hard-earned cash.
Successfully extracting your valuables requires you to reach the Extraction Point, where your C.A.R.T of treasures is assessed, and the Taxman permits you to proceed to the Service Station. Hopefully, you'll have plenty of cash to spend on upgrades and supplies.
As you delve deeper into *R.E.P.O.*, mastering the extraction process becomes routine. What initially feels daunting will soon turn into a well-honed skill as you conquer more levels and face down increasingly fearsome monsters.
In your initial foray into *R.E.P.O.*, you'll encounter only one Extraction Point. As you progress to new locations, this number can increase up to a maximum of four. You can monitor your extraction objectives by checking the red number in the right-hand corner of your screen, which indicates both the total number of drop-offs required and how many you've already completed.

At the start of each level, the Extraction Point is conveniently located near your R.E.P.O. truck, providing a fixed point for your first haul of valuables. Subsequent extractions become more challenging as you navigate the level.
After your first successful drop-off, you'll need to explore further without knowing the Taxman's demands or the next drop-off location. Here, your in-game map becomes an invaluable tool. By pressing "Tab" on your keyboard, you can view unexplored areas, helping you plan your routes and coordinate with teammates to cover more ground efficiently.

The next Extraction Point's location will only become clear once you reach its vicinity, either by visual cues or auditory signals. Once located, press the big red button to reveal your fate and whether you've gathered enough valuables. If you meet the requirement, place your C.A.R.T within the designated grey area to ensure no items are destroyed.
After completing an extraction, you'll either move on to the next point by repeating the process or attempt to return to the truck safely. Note that after the final Extraction Point is discovered and the valuables are counted, you don't need to bring the C.A.R.T back to the truck; a new one will spawn at the next location or level.
