The core loop
Step
The entire game revolves around one loop. You pick a weapon, use it to blow up buildings, and earn cash for every strike. That cash buys the next weapon, which destroys more buildings at once, which earns more cash.
- Pick a weapon start with whatever you can afford right away.
- Target buildings each one you destroy puts cash in your pocket.
- Spend that cash on the next weapon tier.
Weapons available
Table
As of Update 2, there are six weapons to unlock by purchasing them. They range from ground vehicles to aircraft, each with different destructive power. The Laser Tank deals twice the normal damage and earns twice the cash per strike. The B-1 Lancer is an aircraft type suited to large-scale bombing runs. Update 3 added two more options on top of these.
| Laser Tank | 2× damage and 2× cash per strike |
| Light Tank | ground vehicle |
| Mini Tank | compact ground weapon |
| RPG | rocket-launcher-style weapon |
| Death Ray | laser-based weapon |
| B-1 Lancer | bomber aircraft for wide-area strikes |
| Cruise Missile | player-controlled missile added in Update 3 |
| Blackhole | added in Update 3 |
Earning cash faster
Tips
Update 2 increased the cash you earn per strike, and Update 3 increased it again. Aim for clusters of buildings rather than isolated ones so a single strike catches as many as possible.
- Aim at dense groups of buildings to hit as many as possible in one attack.
- The Laser Tank's 2× cash bonus makes every strike twice as profitable.
