What are Challenges in Dead Rails?

The Challenges board is located in the main lobby next to the leaderboards

Challenges are in-game quests offering one-time rewards of Bonds and Challenge Stars. While some are straightforward, others present a greater challenge. No need to accept them individually; they're always active, readily viewable on the Challenges Board in the main lobby. Currently, Challenge Stars are primarily for bragging rights, with no other immediate function.

Challenges reward you with a lot of Bonds

Spend your hard-earned Bonds in the main lobby to unlock new classes or purchase helpful items for your next raid. Prioritize unlocking classes first; then, use any remaining Bonds on items to give yourself an early advantage.
