Touchscreen devices
Although this game might load on touchscreen devices, its controls were optimized for desktops with keyboards.
Game Play
Select one of 8 missions from the menu.
The game covers 2 natural disasters (hurricanes and earthquakes), with 4 missions involved in each.
Each level is themed after a specific relief operation
Food
Water
Medical supplies
Shelter
At the start of each level, the narrator will explain your mission goals. These descriptions reflect the actions done by real-world relief operations.
On the upper right corner of the menu is a help button. This will provide you with a brief tutorial of the game’s controls.
Interface
The game’s controls are located on the upper right corner of the screen.
The leftmost buttons are the reset and menu buttons
The reset button puts everything back to the way they were in the beginning.
The menu button brings you back to the level selection menu.
Next to it are the erase and back buttons.
The erase button let you remove the items you’ve built on the path.
The back button brings your truck and drone back to their starting positions.
The draw buttons let you draw solutions to the game’s puzzles.
The build button lets you create draw structures for the truck to pass through.
The tool button allows you to design a tool for the drone to use.
Basic moves
Drive a delivery truck and drone (“flying robot” in-game) filled with relief goods to the fidgets affected by a natural disaster.
When faced with obstructions on the road, use the build button to create a means to go over it.
Design a tool for the robot to use to move obstacles out of the way.
Drive the truck to finish the section of the level. Finish all 3 sections of the level to complete it.
Building
Selecting the build option on the top left opens the build interface.
Drag the build interface using the placement button on the top center.
Always place the interface where you need to build.
On the build interface’s grid, create a ramp by left clicking and dragging points to create a shape.
When it is closed, it forms a solid-color shape.
The shape must have a maximum of 8 points.
Select Go on the upper right corner to place the tool into the game environment.
Select reset to erase the lines you’ve made and start over.
Tips
Your shape is subject to the physics of the game:
Always draw your ramp exactly where it needs to go.
The shape you create must be stable enough for the surface it’s built on.
When creating bridges, consider putting a support pillar down at the middle to stabilize it.
Make sure that your ramp or bridge has an incline shallow enough for the truck to drive onto.
Tool design
Select the truck to activate the drone/flying robot. Select it again to bring the robot back.
Selecting the tool option opens the tool design interface.
Unlike the build interface, it doesn’t need to be dragged around.
Create a tool you’ll need to move objects that block the path of the truck.
Make the tool the same way you would make a ramp or a bridge.
Unlike with the building interface, you already have a starting point near, and it’s always on the robot.
Close the shape to finish it.
Select Go to activate the tool.
You can select the tool option again to redesign the tool.
Once you’ve finished, navigate the drone around.
Use the tool to push or drag the obstacles out of the way.
Often, you can push the objects into pools of water.
These obstacles can do double duty as foundations for your bridge.
Bring the drone back when you’re done with the obstacles.
You’ll need to recreate the tool once you brought it back to the truck.
When you open the tool option again, it will show an outline of the previous tool.
You cannot recreate the tool once you’ve passed to another section of the level.
Tips
If the tool doesn’t work the first time, redesign it!
Your main goal is to push the obstructions away. Create a tool for that purpose.
Aim for an L- or J- shaped tool.
Use an L shape when pushing objects to the right and a J-shape to push objects to the left.
Reverse it if you need to pull the objects.
Try to keep the angle wide so you can use it to push or drag.
Use a V- shaped tool if you need to use a wedge.
Make sure that the tool is the right size for the job.
Use big tools for big jobs.
Create small tools for precise jobs.
