Activities | Gameplay Elements Saints Row IV Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Activities in Saints Row IV are aplenty and each is divided into three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium and Hard. Rewards for completed Activities are also linked to your scores: Bronze will get you the least, Silver medium, and Gold the most.
Blazin
Blazin is a race against time in which the key element is using Super Sprint. Follow the arrows that point the right direction and avoid fire which consumes time needed to complete the race. Don't forget to grab the green orbs scattered along the track - they speed you up, so make sure not to miss them.
Fraud
Fraud is an Activity returning from the previous Saints Row installments. Your goal is to collect as much insurance money as you can by throwing yourself under the wheels of various vehicles. Simply run straight at a moving vehicle and press LMB to turn your character's body into a ragdoll. You can control your character mid-air, which is quite helpful if you want to inflict more damage, for instance by steering them into another car.
Tank Mayhem
In Tank Mayhem, you sit behind the wheels of a tank and run rampage across the city. Shoot at anything that moves to create the biggest chaos possible. The minimap will also show you targets in red - destroy them to receive more points. The tank has two weapons - click LMB to fire a rocket launcher, and RMB to shoot a laser.
UFO Mayhem
The goal of UFO Mayhem is the similar to Tank Mayhem, but here you control a flying machine. Using a laser rifle under LMB and a rocket launcher under RMB, destroy everything in your path. You can also switch to a quick flying mode by pressing F, but you won't be able to shoot at the same time.
Telekinesis Mayhem
Another type of Mayhem, this time enabling you to use the Telekinesis super power. There will be orbs around you - pick them up with Telekinesis and throw them at anything there is. The more damage you deal, the more points you get.
Mayhem
This Mayhem bestows you with a rocket launcher, which you load by pressing LMB. The goal is the same as any other Mayhem - destroy everything that moves to get the best score.
Rifts
Speeding Rift - you're on a track and have to avoid obstacles and collect orbs. The more orbs you collect, the more the Burst bar charges up - activate it to boost your speed and become able to run through obstacles.
Platforming Rift - jump over platforms until you reach the finish line. To get the highest score, land in the middle of the platform, or as close to it as possible.
Telekinesis Rift - use Telekinesis to throw orbs at the circles. The color of the orbs have to match the color of the circles. Your position often changes, so be on your guard because you'll have to move.
Mech Suit Mayhem
This Mayhem puts you in control the robot that you first got a taste of in the "Zero Cool" mission. Use the available weapons to destroy everything you can.
Prof. Genki's M.O.M
A Telekinesis-based Activity. You will have differently colored hoops to throw various types of objects through.
Blue - throw cars;
Green - throw people;
Pink - throw cats' heads, usually found in the area around.
New hoops locations will keep opening up, so be on your guard and move when needed.
Fight Club
Fight Club will have you pitted against several types of enemies, who will keep getting stronger with each consecutive round. In the last round, you'll fight a Boss - killing him successfully ends the Activity. The quicker you finish it, the greater the rewards.
