Tour
The tour resembled previous campaigns hosted by Potato's Custom MVM servers, featuring many of the same maps, with different missions, along with new maps such as Example.
In keeping with the short duration of the community event, one simple, short tour was offered, with only one medal in reward.

Rewards
This event had four medals which are able to be earned by players: one as a reward for completion of the tour, and three for donations to a charity drive benefiting The National Breast Cancer Foundation of Australia. Clearing all seven intermediate difficulty missions earned the player the Tungsten Robot of Leaded Lunacy medal. The sole advanced mission, Advances of Advanced Adversaries, did not count towards earning the player the medal.
In addition, players can donate varying amounts through item or monetary donations to receive donor medals. Donating at least 6 AUD earns the player the Luxurious Lepidolite medal, donating at least 20 AUD earns the player both the Luxurious Lepidolite and Mesmerizing Morganite medals, and donating at least 33 AUD earns the player all three donation medals: the Luxurious Lepidolite, the Mesmerizing Morganite, and the Pink Diamond. The charity drive is set to close on April 30, 2022.
Content creators whose missions were accepted for use in the event were awarded the Auspicious Automaton Assembler's Accolade medal, returning from Operation Binary Blackout.
The Tungsten Robot of Leaded Lunacy player medal uses the model for the Titanium Tank Participant Medal, while the Luxurious Lepidolite, Mesmerizing Morganite, and Pink Diamond donor medals reuse models from Operation Madness vs Machines; however, all four medals initially drop with custom painted colors which are not otherwise available in-game. These medals each use different shades of pink. The Auspicious Automaton Assembler's Accolade reuses the model for the Mappers vs. Machines Participant Medal, however, it is not painted a custom color.
Each of the donor medals has two styles, named "Normal" and "Gem Only". The "Gem Only" style displays only the gemstones, without the surrounding metal frames.
The participant medal was contributed to the Steam Workshop by NeoDement, Sntr, sedisocks, Star Bright, and Hydrogen.
