Mini-Games

Navigate the intricate mini-games within Synergy, from timed hacking sequences to strategic rescue missions. Learn the optimal hero choices and strategies to succeed.

This guide covers the various mini-games encountered during the Synergy episode of Dispatch. These often involve timed sequences, specific hero requirements, and strategic decision-making to ensure the city's safety and achieve optimal outcomes.

Hacking Sequences: Several missions require successful completion of timed hacking sequences. These involve navigating paths, luring or avoiding antivirus programs, and activating build paths within a time limit. Examples include 'Locate the Tracker', 'Locate Sonar/Coupe OR Phenomaman/Waterboy', 'Lockdown', and 'Defeat Mindf*cker'. Success often depends on precise movement and utilizing build paths effectively.

Hero Assignments: Many calls require specific heroes or combinations of heroes with certain stats (e.g., Mobility, Vigor, Intellect, Charisma, Combat). Choosing the right hero is crucial for success and can unlock XP boosts or exclusive dialogue options. Pay close attention to the recommended hero types and their associated skills for each mission.

Timed Missions & City HP: Failing certain calls results in a loss of City HP, with the risk of losing the city if it reaches zero. This adds a layer of urgency to timed missions and critical rescue operations. Some missions also have specific goals, like reaching a Charisma or Combat level, to gain an XP boost.

Special Events: Missions like 'Weakening Sonar/Coupe' involve a recurring event where completing it weakens the Red Ring, indicated by an HP bar. The shift ends when this bar reaches zero. Other events, like 'Return of the Kaiju' or 'Witch Hunt', may involve combat or dialogue choices with specific hero requirements.

Consequences: Choices made in dialogue and during missions can have lasting effects, such as influencing whether an ex-team member rejoins or affecting future available options. Saving the city can unlock opportunities later in the game.
