There’s a new enemy (the Puppy) that moves faster than the Crushers and can make you bleed with their nasty bite attacks. Even if you manage to rescue Memory and get past them, you still come across a huge obstacle… [i]Namely:[/i] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//40664322/f3bf8dbf5c7eff27e236a2497ce7f28c4387bc07.jpg[/img] Yeah. So if you were having trouble getting through these bad boys, we have some tricks and tips for you to help make it easier! [u][b]Exploding Bunny to the rescue[/b][/u] Your first hero, Hunter, has a selection of range attack cards in his deck , such as the Hand Grenade or the famous pink plush bunny bomb. Keeping these ones for the three Crushers can be a very wise decision – by throwing the bunny on the hex in between them, you can deal a whole lotta damage to all three terrible robots at once. Or as they say, killing three robots with one [strike]stone[/strike] bunny. (Are we getting something wrong here?)

In this case, you may find it easier to sneak around the shed where the three Crushers are sleeping, and get to your goal from behind them. They will not wake up until you get close to them and step on the hexes with the red bells. When that happens, you can still surprise them with a bunny attack or, you know, just run for it. [u][b]Teamwork makes the dream work[/b][/u] When you reach the second level, your first mission goal is to rescue Su’s alleged daughter from the dangerous enemies. You can accomplish this by fighting your way through a vicious puppy and walking onto a hex next to her.

By clicking on their icons on the left side of the screen, you can see their hands and the cards that they will be able to use in the next turn. This can help you strategize a bit. The two heroes are equipped with different weapons and skills that complement each other perfectly in a battle: while Hunter is great at melee attacks and can use a lot of explosives, Memory is more of a ‘’controlling type’’ who can shock, dazzle, immobilize or control the enemy from afar. Here are some other cards she can use, and some tricks to make them even more powerful! [i][b]Energy Overload[/b][/i]– This card deals 1 damage to everyone standing right next to Memory when it’s used, so be careful to get your other hero away first! There’s a trick to this card though: if you discard it instead of using it (e.g. with a Plan Ahead/System Reboot card or switch it to Stroll or Punch cards with the deck skill buttons), it will deal 2 damage instead of one to everyone in a hex range around Memory! [img]https://media.giphy.com/media/w0lhWycmETaUzThTla/giphy.gif[/img] [b][i]Immobilize or Disarm[/i][/b] – You’ve accidentally walked into the waking range of an enemy and now you have three nasty robots coming against you. Now what? Memory’s skills will come handy on these occasions. Use the Immobilize card if the enemy is still far away. It will not be able to move to attack you and you can take it out in your next turn. If the enemy is already in attack range, better use the Disarm card that disables all its attacks for the next turn. [b][i]Tap Energy[/i][/b] - Memory can also charge her energy levels when in the close vicinity of robots. Use this card when you have more enemies in the hexes right next to Memory and you will get an energy point for each enemy!
