FIELD GUIDE // PACKET SIEGE

Hold the core.
Push the score.

Packets descend in a moving formation. Shoot them before they reach the core, then survive the next wave. Enemies that get closer are worth more, so skilled players can take a controlled risk for a higher score.

FastQuick and worth more.
TankNeeds several hits.

All competitive players use the same cannon, power-ups, and wave rules. Permanent progression never gives a gameplay advantage.

HOW TO PLAY

Protect the core.
One more wave.

Shoot the descending packets, collect power-ups, and keep enemies away from the core. You have three lives, and each direct hit costs one. The deeper a packet reaches, the more score it gives, but it also becomes a bigger threat.

  • Move and shoot Use A/D, arrows, or the touch controls.
  • Build a combo Consecutive kills raise your multiplier to x12.
  • Take the risk Close packets pay more, but damage the core if they break through.
  • Defeat the boss Every fifth wave introduces a heavy boss with a unique attack pattern.

Defence

Use the bunkers.

Three bunkers sit between your cannon and the packet formation. Enemy shots damage the cover first, but your own missiles can also break it down, so fire through gaps when the shields are damaged.

Drops

Catch the weapon drops.

Destroyed packets can drop Rocket, Double Missile, or Triple Missile boosts. Move under a drop to collect it. Weapon boosts last for a limited time and stack with the score power-ups.
