Rewards

The game calculates how many Coins, Gems and EXP you receive based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more EXP (Friday – Sunday), any EXP earned is multiplied by 2x through the XP Boost modifier. The VIP gamepass also multiplies any EXP earned by 1.25x through the VIP Boost modifier. These two boosts are additive. Regular EXP boosts are multiplicative with other modifiers present on this map.

Any rewards that end in a decimal point is rounded down, no matter the first figure of the leading decimal.

Difficulty reward scaling for survival mode Coins and Exp is 0.85x.

Strategy

• There is plenty of space in the middle of the map to place all the ground troops that are required.
  • Do note that this is some distance away from the start of the map meaning that summoner enemies, like the Necromancer can spawn enemies before being attacked.
• There are two main grassy rocks in which cliff towers can be placed upon.
  • While this should be fine for most people, you may find that cliff space is limited.

Trivia

• The boat on the side of the map may be a reference to the Fishing Boat from R2DA, a game BelowNatural previously worked on.
• In the second version of the map, one of the coconuts in the palm trees on the far island had a flushed emoji printed on it. Also on another island, you could find a socket puppet with a Cowboy hat on a raft.
• Unlike many other maps that existed prior to the MEGA Update, this map was not remade or removed. This was quite strange considering that it retained a blocky style, similar to maps that were remade. This map was later remade in the Overhaul Update and multiple other times in future updates.
• In the third version of this map, an enemy-looking humanoid could be seen sunbathing on the beach. This humanoid did not represent any enemy in-game.
  • This humanoid looked somewhat similar to the Mega Zombie accessory in the catalog.
