Figure out the mysterious Apparatus and defend the Core. The Apparatus can summon creatures and buff them. But it's not very easy to operate.
Here's some help:
- Arrow symbols change the direction of the Apparatus' head.
- The crystal symbol with a number adds mana to the Stack.
- The crystal symbol with a plus sign operates on mana that is already on the Stack and increases it by one.
- Single creature summons cost 1 mana.
- Multiple creature summons cost two different amounts of mana, X and Y. They summon a lot of creatures, multiple of X and Y.
- The axe makes your creatures go Berserk! And it only costs 2 mana. Try it out!
Ah and don't forget, the machine overheats from working too hard.
- Use basic cooler to drop some heat for free.
- Use advanced cooler for 1 mana to drop a lot of heat.
Last but not least, try the grow buff. It makes your creatures permanently grow in size and strength. It also costs X Y mana and grows X*Y creatures.
Hover over icons to remind yourself what all these cryptic things do.
Did we mention you can shoot fireballs? Left mouse button is your friend. Right mouse button will case a healing circle and help your creatures.
Build a circuit which can survive for 4 minutes and the Crystal Core will be yours.
