Tips and tricks
- If there is a reload, reload during quiet moments — never in the middle of a wave.
- Aim first, then shoot. Spraying costs time or ammo and rarely helps; a single well-placed shot almost always beats three rushed ones.
- Learn the spawn points. Most levels reuse the same few entry points, and knowing them turns panic into routine.
- Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
- Because this is a Tower Defense game, build at corners where the path doubles back so towers get two passes at every enemy.
