“After nearly two years of hard work and dedication, we’re thrilled to kick off closed testing for various game modes in Puzzles Crusade. And what better way to begin this phase than by launching a Puzzles Crusade Tournament exclusively for our dedicated community of ambassadors?

Named “Fight the Lizard,” this closed tournament is an exclusive opportunity for our ambassadors to enjoy a titan fight in Puzzles Crusade. The tournament is set to commence on November 22nd and will run for 8 days. Throughout these 8 days, participants are encouraged to engage in as many rounds as they desire. The top 9 results will be tallied to determine each player’s final score. And 5 people who will prove to be the best skilled ones in battle will take home a total of 100$ in rewards.

Technical details of the tournament
1. The winners will be chosen based on the sum of their 9 best scores. There is no other criteria other than the summed score. But, of course, the more rounds you play, the bigger are your chances at scoring some really nice rounds — therefore, improve your general score.

2. After each round, the player should input their name. Make sure the name you input is YOUR DISCORD USERNAME. Using any other name than your discord username will result in an invalidation of your score for the curent round.

3. One player — one device. Installing the .apk on more than one device, or have multiple people play and register their scores under the name of the same ambassador is forbidden. Any attempt of having multiple people/devices submit their scores as if they were a single person will result in disqualification and will forfeit one's claim on the rewards.

4. Those who want to take part need to register in the tournament by sending a message in the dedicated discord channel #fight-the-lizard. The registration closes 48 hours before the tournament.

5. The reward distribution is as follows:
1st place: $40
2nd place: $25
3rd place: $15
4th place: $10
5th place: $10

Game mechanics to take in consideration
It is a good idea to start by reading this article first — Learn How to Battle in Puzzles Crusade!

The Titan Fight mechanics are pretty much the same with the only difference that you're not fighting against multiple enemies, but against a single powerfull one. The titan can not be killed. You can only deal damage which is displayed in the top right corner of your screen. The longer you survive, the more damage you will manage to do.

For a better strategy, when playing you can tap and hold on your heroes, to check what their special skills are.

Alpha v.0.0.01 limitations
In this veary early version of Puzzles Crusade, there are some limitations and aspects that will get fixed and improved as we develop furthers. Bellow is a list of specifics and limitations in v.0.0.01. Also, this alpha version is only available for Android devices. We are working hard to deliver it for iOS users as well.

Titan Specifics/Limitations
The titan causes a fixed amount of damage. After each of your hits, the titan will randomly hit back 250 HP. The titan's mana fills in every 8 moves. When the titan mana is full, it hits 750HP on ALL your heroes.

Heroes Specifics/Limitations
Although the hero information card (which pops-up when you tap and hold on your hero) shows multiple effects of their special skills, in v.0.0.01, only the first skill in the list is active.

For convenience find below the information cards of the heroes present in v.0.0.01.

With everything said above, there is only one more thing to say, and that is GOOD LUCK to everyone and may the best ones win! We can’t wait to see who emerges as the first ever Puzzles Crusade champion!”
