Abyss Guide
Overview
The Abyss is a challenging encounter mode where you craft + upgrade a menagerie of creatures (called Biocrafts) and use them to go hunting for resources + battling for prizes.
- Use the Laboratory to create and upgrade your Biocraft army
- Earn Artifacts, Reputation, and Genes by Hunting
- Unlock more lucrative levels of hunting by Delving deeper
- Compete in the Arena to win Limited Blends, Troopers and premium tokens
Laboratory
Your first stop should be the Laboratory. This where you will craft and upgrade your Biocrafts. The in-game "Lab Guide" will tell you how to find all the various Genes you will need as well as the special abilities of the Biocrafts.
Once you have the general idea, click the "Manage Biocrafts" button to start building your menagerie.
Since you have just started the game, you do not have enough genes for the more powerful Biocrafts. Click the "Craft Now" button for the first three free Biocrafts.
You now have three Biocrafts! The important thing to note here is the "CR", or "Combat Rating". The higher this value, the better your Hunting will go. Upgrading your Biocrafts will give you a higher CR. Upgrading will cost you Artifacts. OK, next click the "View Detail" button.
Take your time and look over this screen closely. Some Biocrafts will have high health making them good at fighting in the front lines and tanking enemy damage. Some will be fragile but very powerful at range, or perhaps play a role in healing your army. Get to know the strengths and weaknesses well of your army so you can arrange and battle them appropriately.
Delve
Once you have set up your Biocrafts in the Laboratory, click the "Delve" button to progress deeper into the Abyss.
