How to play Tetrads.io

Here's a guide on how to play:

Gameplay and Controls:

  1. Survival and Growth: Your cube character must gather other shapes to increase its size. Collecting shapes adds to your mass, making you larger and more powerful.

  2. Combat and Destruction: You can engage in battles with other players by attacking and consuming their shapes. When you defeat an opponent, you absorb their mass and grow even larger. However, keep in mind that battles come at a cost – the size of your cube and the opponent's cube determine the cost in terms of average mass. Engaging in battles against significantly larger opponents might not be advantageous.

  3. Strategic Choices: It's important to choose your battles wisely. Attacking smaller opponents increases your chances of success and minimizes the risk of losing mass.

  4. Survival Tactics: Since you'll likely encounter players larger than you, it's crucial to use your survival instincts. Evade larger opponents whenever possible, and only engage if you have a good chance of winning.

  5. Boost Power-Up: You have access to a "boost" power-up that allows you to move faster for a short period of time. To activate the boost, press the left mouse button. This can be used to escape from larger opponents or catch up to smaller ones.

  6. Boost Management: The boost power-up has its own power bar. When you use the boost, the bar depletes. It recharges slowly over time at half the speed. Use the boost judiciously, as running out of boost in a critical moment could leave you vulnerable.

  7. Leaderboard: The game usually displays a leaderboard showing the top players based on their size or score. Your goal is to climb up the leaderboard by growing your cube and defeating opponents.

Controls:

The controls for Tetrads.io are typically straightforward:

  • Mouse: Move your mouse cursor to control the direction of your cube character.
  • Left Mouse Button: Press the left mouse button to activate your boost power-up. Use this to increase your speed temporarily.

Please be aware that the specifics of the game mechanics and controls might vary based on the version of Tetrads.io you're playing.

In Tetrads.io, survival, strategic decision-making, and efficient use of your boost power-up are key to dominating the game and reaching the top of the leaderboard.
