A complete Forest Road mission guide covering the walkthrough, deployment order, rewards, completion regions, equipment planning and common mission problems.
This DrainSim Forest Road guide explains the full mission walkthrough, recommended deployment strategy, completion regions, rewards, equipment planning and troubleshooting for the current game build.
Deep roadside flooding, large diggable areas and limited light at the start of the shift. Use the mission data below to check the reward, measured regions, infrastructure and target time before choosing your loadout.
Deep roadside flooding, large diggable areas and limited light at the start of the shift.
Deployment order: Pack a site light and shovel. The mission has only two measured regions, so the main challenge is establishing a clean channel through poor visibility and uneven ground.
Make the terrain readable before digging or placing hoses.
Deploy the site light where it covers both the road edge and the main low point.
Scan both measured regions before unloading everything.
Locate the most natural downhill route for a channel.
02
Phase 2 — Cut a controlled channel
Give the standing water a continuous route.
Dig a shallow, connected path rather than a series of deep holes.
Use removed dirt to close unwanted side routes.
Pause and watch the flow before extending the trench.
03
Phase 3 — Pump the persistent low point
Remove water that the channel cannot move quickly enough.
Place the pump only after the route has stabilised.
Keep the hose clear of embankments and sharp turns.
Move the pump once, at most, unless the scan proves the remaining region is separate.
04
Phase 4 — Verify both regions
Finish the road edges and channel floor.
Re-scan from both ends of the road.
Vacuum isolated shallow pockets.
Use the squeegee to push the last film into the channel or drain route.
Mission Walkthrough Video
Watch a complete Forest Road play guide demonstrating one effective route through the mission. Equipment behaviour, timings or mission mechanics may change between DrainSim updates.
Follow the mission walkthrough in this guide: establish water control first, work through each measured completion region in order, then finish shallow water and recheck the cleared areas before ending the mission.
How many completion regions are in Forest Road?
