🎯 Objectives

The primary objective in Crowd City is straightforward: build the largest crowd in the city before the timer runs out. Your short-term goal is to quickly gather scattered civilians to establish a dominant early presence. Your long-term victory condition is to then seek out and absorb the crowds of other players who are smaller than you. Success means constantly balancing aggressive expansion with cautious evasion of bigger threats, aiming to have the highest population count displayed on the leaderboard when the match ends.

💡 Pro Tips

• 🎪 Master the Merge: Don't just charge at every small crowd. Lure bigger enemy mobs into each other; while they fight and weaken one another, you can swoop in and absorb the survivors.
• ⚡ Efficient Pathing: Move in wide, sweeping arcs through areas with high civilian density instead of zig-zagging erratically. This maximizes the number of people you collect per second.
• 💰 Target Smartly: Your crowd's size is your power. Always keep a mental note of which colored crowds are smaller than yours. Prioritize hunting them over collecting lone civilians for a massive population boost.
• 🏆 Safe Dominance: In the final seconds, if you are in the lead, prioritize safety over aggression. Avoid all potential conflicts and focus on maintaining your top spot until the game ends.
