Tech Tree provides various bonuses to help the player in their Tales Within the Sand campaigns. It consists of nodes that are arranged horizontally from left to right and divided into five groups:
- Construct nodes that improves the namesake.
- Exploration nodes that improves resource gathering.
- Trade nodes that provide bonuses to the Trading Post.
- Tactics nodes that provide combat bonuses.
- Strange Territory nodes that pertains to the namesake feature.
Tech Tree nodes are unlocked by spending Tech Tree Points, awarded after the Calculation Day at a rate of 1 Tech Tree Point for every 200 points of score throughout the cycle. Some nodes require the Headquarters to be upgraded to a specific level before they can be unlocked. The Tech Tree will be completely reset when the player starts a new campaign, but all Tech Tree Points spent will be refunded.
To unlock all Tech Tree nodes, the player must spend 445 Tech Tree Points.
