Scoring:
5 points | Clearing infestation from the walls | 100 points | Killing a warrior alien | 600 points | Killing a queen alien | 500 points | Each time Newt is spotted | 2000 points | Bonus given if player reaches room 69 while still under attack wave 1 |
Attack waves: - Starting attack wave is 1. - After every 2000 points reached, the attack wave increases. - The 6th is the highest attack wave, any wave above is the same as the 6th. - In each attack wave, the warriors and infestation spreads faster, queen(s) move quicker. - At the start of attack wave 2, the queen is placed in room 248. (Because of the 2000 points bonus, it's not possible to get to the queen's room during attack wave 1.) - At the start of attack wave 4 and 5, up to 8 additional queens are added randomly to the complex. - At the start of attack wave 6 and above, up to 16 additional queens are added randomly to the complex.
Mission: Step 1: You must move each player at least once. Reach the queen's room (248), kill her and clear the infestation. If these conditions are met, the following message will be shown: "ATTENTION / COMPANY MESSAGE / RETURN TO MTOB TO / COMPLETE MISSION"
Step 2:: After step 1 has taken place and all surviving players reach room 1, the game ends with the following message: "COMPANY SUGGESTS YOU / RETURN AT A LATER / DATE TO GAIN A HIGHER / CREDIT RATING"
The game contains a message which is never shown: "MESSAGE FROM COMPANY / MISSION ACCOMPLISHED / BY (names of surviving players shown) / TOTAL CREDIT POINTS / ATTAINED (score shown)" |
