FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best skill in the game?
Shield is universally considered the best skill. It completely blocks explosions and is essential at every intensity level from 1.0 to 10.0.
How many skills can I equip?
You can equip multiple skills before each round. The exact number depends on your skill slots, which expand as you purchase upgrades at the Survival Shop.
Should I buy every skill?
No, focus on maxing out 3-4 core skills that fit your playstyle. Spreading coins across every skill leaves you with many weak abilities instead of a few powerful ones.
What skills are best for beginners?
Start with Shield (defense), then add Super Dash (mobility) and Fireproof (fire protection). These three skills handle most threats at intensity 1.0–5.0.
