About Gear Wars
Gear Wars frames combat as a clash of moving mechanisms rather than a simple exchange of attacks. The field changes as units engage, so target selection and spacing are more useful than pressing every available action at once.
How to play Gear Wars
Let the game reveal its controls, then observe how the first enemies move before committing to a position. Remove threats that restrict your options, and reassess whenever a defeated unit opens a new lane or exposes another attacker.
Tips for better runs
- Prioritize pressure: The unit blocking a route can be more dangerous than one with the largest appearance.
- Do not fight the whole screen: Concentrate on the part of the formation that will reach you next.
- Use openings immediately: A gap created by one action may close once the next wave advances.
