LOGIC GAMES
You need with just a few droids Defuse
building, captured by the enemy.
Enemy droids guarding the approaches to the bomb planted in the
different parts of the building. Your task - to find the best
way get all the bombs and the time of
get rid of them.
The building, which need to clear, represents a
small labirirint with several rooms, some of
which can be fully
isolated from the others. Plan of the building you can observe
in the center bottom of the screen. However, because
this plan is impossible to determine how communicate with each
other different parts of the building. On the plan
indicated only their bases
Droids and your location
bombs. Deal with how the room can only be communicated,
if we use the icon inspection. The same problem can be
decide if your droids
be able to circumvent the game locations and
inspect all the rooms.
Usually beginning with this
can not cope and their droids die when meeting with the
insidious droids guards who
control all the main approaches to the rooms where there are
bomb.
Get rid of the guards is quite simple. The solution lies in
the surface. When your droid
will pursue a guard
try to make greater use of
a mine messages between floors
building. The guard would not stand such overloads and safely
break into pieces. Well, you
be able to breathe freely. On
the first level you will need to
thus destroy the whole
two droid guards.
The game is often vstechayutsya situation where there are no
pass from one room to another. As
Typically in these rooms can

device. When you send
his droid in the teleported
pillow, then normal operation, your engineer will be
teleported to another part of
building. Otherwise, nothing
happen and the droid will remain in
original location. This will be
mean that teleportator
disconnected from the overall system. Then
it should be included. This will
make a droid that has
access to the control panel hardware, which
necessarily exist in every building.
In order to include unemployed teleportation device, as well
as other support mechanisms (actuators secret doors, windows,
security systems), you will need an electronic card, which must
be inserted into the control panel.
Each card controls only
their devices. Thus such cards may be
few. It is advisable to use them all. Typically, the number of
used cards determines the probability of successful
assignment at each
level. Using all the cards
You can without much difficulty
to reach any of the bombs. A
it is already ninety percent success.
Having found the bomb, you should
immediately bring it outside
building. Each building has a solution. Its easy to define. If
droid refuses to go into
door, you know - it's way out.
Typically, the output is located at the bottom
part of the building. This can be left or right corner of the
plan. Not mix output from the destroyed
bomb room. Use the icon inspection and adjacent areas.
So you found a bomb and took it to the exit. Using the icon
to "throw the object, select the optimum tilt angle and boldly
press "FIRE". If You were on target, the bomb safely fly beyond
building and there is going to explode. For this
You will be given a substantial premium
glasses.
When you defuse all the bombs in the building, you will be
offered a new job, and will put in into the bargain
composition of your team's back-
droid engineer, which you can use at their discretion at the
next level of play.
TIPS
-----
Stay away from e-card to a bomb - it is fraught with
troubles.
Remember that the droid can carry only one item. Therefore,
First enjoy a search card, and then later bombed.
If you lose at least one of the droid, then put under
questioned the assignment.
Be careful. If you
often use mine for ne
transition to the other floors, remember
that the bomb may explode
faster than you would of Hoth
elk.
Take your time to eliminate all
bomb. You have limited stock
time.
