The green box on the map in SAND: Raiders of Sophie is most likely a loot or objective marker tied to a point of interest, not a random UI glitch. Recent guides around the game focus on map markers for extraction, loot, and mission-related locations, which fits the kind of icon you’re describing.

What it usually means

  • A safe loot/container location or interactable spot.
  • A quest or objective marker for a specific area.
  • Sometimes a marker for a special point of interest depending on the map or mode.

How to tell exactly

  • Check whether it appears only during a mission, which usually means objective-related.
  • If it stays visible as you roam, it’s more likely a location marker or loot node.
  • Compare it with other box colors in the game, since guides for SAND break down box colors as different item types and interactions.

Practical read

If you’re seeing a green box and wondering whether to go there first, the safest assumption is: it’s worth investigating , especially if you’re in an early run and trying to loot efficiently. Your screenshot or the exact map screen would make this much easier to identify precisely.
