How a run works
Step
Every room has a wall standing between you and the next area. You hit the wall repeatedly with your tool until it goes down, then a door opens and you move forward. The same pattern repeats in every room that follows.
- Attack the wall keep hitting it; damage builds up over multiple strikes.
- Break it down once enough damage is dealt, the wall disappears.
- Upgrade your tool put those rewards into your tool before moving on.
- Go through the door head into the next room and repeat the whole process.
