For the badge: (1) stab all dinos with spacebar exept for the ones that spit at you (gives you $15 instead of $10) (2) After wave 4, you should have $2000 that you can spend on a turret (the black dots on the ground). Now just run around the turret (3) When you have $4000, upgrade the turret. (4) When you have $3500, purchase a Heavy soldier from the crate. By this time you should have the badge. If you want to keep going, buy 2 more heavy soldiers, then keep upgrading your turret to level 6. At that point, you're pretty much invincible. If you'd like, you can purchase/upgrade the other turrets, or purchase air support. But you're pretty much invincible until you suicide, make a dumb mistake, or your computer crashes because there are too many enemies on the screen.
(1) The load screen can get stuck, just reload the page, (2) Regen is useless, (3) The hard badge is mostly luck. Stay relatively still until you figure out the best direction to retreat. My setup was Move Speed--4, Reload Speed--4, Protection--2, Projectiles--3, Damage--3, Fire Rate--2, Penetration--2
Best strategy is to only choose ship-hunting missions (no treasure-hunter, no fort-hunter) and sail towards ships to hunt them. Kite them into following you, and just zig zag in front of the ship while firing to take them down. You can have oodles of ships following you to collect $$$ and treasure. You can organize your treasure by doing the treasure-hunt mini-game (you keep anything at the top and trash anything at the bottom) to ensure that you keep the most expensive treasure. The treasure mini-game is mostly luck-based, but I prefer moving diagonally for the second move to give me more info'. Focus on treasure-hunter, cannonball, and tortoise shield. One level of dragoon Ram is necessary to speed through levels. (remember to recharge it every level!)
The Desert Eagle may earn the most money, but the Barrett is definitely the funnest gun with the second to highest damage output and its zoom-in scope.
Getting survivors is the most important thing, so focus on that first. If you're searching a house with ONLY survivors, it's OK to have a group with a high success rate, and also a low chance of escaping detection, since you'll end up with more survivors. But if you lose too many survivors, restart the game...
It's IMPOSSIBLE to deactivate powerups. This means that if you eventually want to build an overpowered squad of allies with homing missiles, don't unlock ANY other soldier. No grenadiers, no marksmen, no riflemen...and definitely don't unlock the car until you unlock Endless mode. Otherwise, your squad will fill up with soldiers you don't want.
Hmm, buttons work in both Chrome and Firefox for me. Maybe people need to update their flash or allow permissions for this game to save on local storage?
All skill points should go into Fortitude to max your HP. All ability points should go into Strength if you're a fighter, Intelligence if you're a mage, or Dexterity if you want to just run from enemies the entire time. Wells of Wishing and Scrolls of Acquirement can allow you to choose any item in the game if you're patient enough (just quit&save, continue, summon an item, and refresh the page if you get the wrong item). Get a charm of healing (fighters) or of energy (mages) ASAP, and use tables of Transference to max out that charm whenever you have a chance. Pretty easy to beat the game with any class using that technique.
You can reuse wells of wishing and scrolls of acquirement to reroll for the best items by quitting and saving the game, continuing your saved game, and then trying to obtain an item using a well of wishing or scroll of acquirement. If you don't like the item, just reload the page and continue your savegame to try again. OP items make getting the hard badge a breeze.
Huh, I can't save games. I save the game, close the browser, and then when I open the game the save game is gone. Whelp, no more playing this game then.
