Tips and tricks

  • Move between shots. Many shooters make you an easy target only when you stand in one place.
  • Keep your cursor or crosshair roughly where enemies appear, not on the spot where the last one died.
  • Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
  • If there is a reload, reload during quiet moments — never in the middle of a wave.
  • Because this is a Educational game, say the answer out loud before you click; it makes the learning stick.
