Saints Row: The Third Guide › Essentials › Game System

Diversions

There are a ton of extra things to do in Steelport when you consider all the Assassinations, Vehicle Thefts, collectables, Activities, etc. If that weren’t enough to overwhelm you, there are a lot more tasks to tackle under this category. Diversions is a very large classification that encompasses a wide variety of fun and optional gameplay elements. These are literally meant to serve as a diversion or break from some of the more structured objectives. Most of them are very brief and are great for variety.

On the opposite end of the spectrum is survival, which is very challenging. All will earn you cash and respect to provide the proper incentive. Ultimately this large and rather loose grouping falls into two types. Those that are auto-tracked throughout the game as you complete other gameplay and those that must be actively initiated like a minigame.
