Mob Control is a game about firing a cannon full of soldiers at your enemies. You need to hit gates that multiply your forces and overwhelm your foes before they’ve got a chance to react. It’s pretty exciting, but it can be overwhelming if you’re not sure what you’re doing.
And that’s where this strategy guide comes in. We’ve played a load of Mob Control and discovered all of the hints, tips and tricks you’re going to need to get the most out of the experience. Follow these and you’ll be coming out on top in every battle.
Players who’ve never fired a cannon in anger and players who’ve smashed their fair share of bases are all going to find something to help them here. So let’s stop the fussin’ and mussin’ and get on with the best hints, tips and cheats for Mob Control.
What should I upgrade?
To begin with you should focus on increasing your fire rate and rewards. Your giants are plenty strong already and upgrading them can be expensive. When you’re getting higher rewards, it’ll cost less of your stack, so it makes more sense to increase your fire power and earnings first.
Move with the gates
On levels where there’s a gate moving in front of your cannon, you should usually try to move your cannon at the same speed to get the most out of the multiplication. This isn’t always the case, especially if there’s a gate with a much higher multiplication number that you can hit easily. For the most part, though, move and you’ll do just fine.
Do the maths
You’re going to have to do some simple maths from time to time to figure out what’s the best shot to be taking. An x2 followed by an x3 will get you more units than an x4 on its own, for example. Think about how you’re going to make your army as large as it can be as quickly as possible.
Don’t focus on one lane
Your enemies are going to attack you from multiple directions, so don’t just blast all of your forces down one lane and hope for the best. Shoot a few units, move, then shoot a few more. Rinse and repeat. You can also use the scenery to split your forces – aim for corners where some of your units will head one way and some the other.
Be smart with your giants
It’s tempting to fire out your giants as soon as you can, but look at the situation you’re in before you do. If you only need to hit the enemy base a couple more times to win, then there’s no point sending out your giants – save them for the start of the next level when they’re going to be much more useful. And always try and fire them so they’re going to multiply the most as they stomp forwards.
