Do not chase level 6 items. The optimal score per square is level 5 "Royal Feast" (worth 15k points) vs level 6 (worth 25k but takes 3x longer to merge). Stick to level 5s and feed constantly.

, the NecroMerger’s sister. To achieve a top-tier score (often targeted at 6.5M+ for free-to-play players), you must prioritize resource management and efficient damage output. Core Strategy: The Power of Cannons
In this event, Cannons are your primary tool for success. Unlike weapons that are consumed upon use, Cannons provide passive, consistent damage over time as long as there are enemies on the board.
Early Game Focus: Start by obtaining the free level 2 Cannon from the shop via an ad. Use floating weapons early on to clear low-health units like Musketeers to gain initial resources, but pivot to building as many level 1 and 2 Cannons as possible.
The "Spam" Rule: Do not merge Cannons early. It is mathematically better to have a board full of level 1 Cannons than a few high-level ones, as the combined damage of multiple low-level units is generally higher and covers more targets. Only merge when you literally run out of board space. Do not chase level 6 items
Upgrades: Prioritize Cannon Damage and Banner Spawn rates. Upgrading Enid's banners ensures a steady flow of invaders for your Cannons to shoot, preventing "wasted" damage time. Resource Management (Iron and Gunpowder)
Efficiency hinges on how you handle your two main resources: Iron (for weapons/anvils) and Gunpowder (for cannons/bombs).
Anvils: Aim for a single Level 3 Anvil. This is widely considered the "sweet spot" for generating the necessary weapons to finish off targets that your Cannons have weakened.
Furnaces: Do not merge your furnaces early. Keeping them separate provides more total Iron per hour, which is critical for maintaining your weapon supply.
The End-Game Pivot: On the final day (Day 3), once your damage per hour is high enough to kill Magicians consistently, you can stop building Cannons and start saving Gunpowder for Bombs. Bombs deal massive flat damage and are more efficient for a final "burst" to push your score into the millions in the last few hours.
