Route

Use main route to solve one real in-game task.

When a wave breaks through, watch the first weak lane, strengthen the unit that was supposed to hold it, and replay the same plan once more. The best fix is the one that changes the next wave, not every slot on the board.

  • Roll until the wave is stable.
  • Place until the wave is stable.
  • Defend until the wave is stable.
  • Upgrade until the wave is stable.
Next choice

A good route tells you what to skip.

Skip unrelated buttons until the lane, missile, or wave that breaks first improves. If the run improves, keep the route; if not, return to the advanced decision tree.

  • Upgrade the failing lane before touching the rest of the defense.
  • Use rewards on the slow task.
  • Run the same wave again after updates to check the fix.
