Strategies?? 🧩🤔

The game does not restrict the player to follow any set path, you can walk straight to the Underworld (hardest region) at the start of the game. But we recommend you finish the Plains first -> then Desert -> then Forest (top-right) -> then Tundra (top-left) and finally the Underworld (below). Focus on crafting superior weapons so you can quickly decimate a large number of enemies.

While the Rock Minigun is the best weapon, it is heavy and slows down your movement. You can alternate between a slingshot or hands (1/2/3) and the Rock Minigun when you're moving and shooting respectively.
