Tips for Conquering the Village and Earning Score

Eliminate enemies with the drum can

In the village, there are barrels filled with explosive material that detonate upon impact, affecting the nearby area. If you're facing multiple enemies, these barrels can be an effective way to eliminate them all in one go. To safely use these explosive barrels, it's advisable to attack them with long-range weapons like handguns to avoid getting caught in the blast.

Navigate carefully to avoid being surrounded by enemies

Enemies often attack from multiple directions, making strategic navigation crucial to avoid being cornered. Choose spots where you're less likely to be outflanked, such as rooftops, and always maintain an escape route as you move.

Use Bullet Rush when powerful enemies appear

In the village, defeating specific numbers of enemies triggers the appearance of more powerful foes. These stronger enemies show up after you've defeated 25, 50, 90, and 130 enemies. Keep this in mind and consider using Bullet Rush when they appear.

Recommended Position in the Village

Rooftop of the House in the Center of the Map

For combat situations in the village, the rooftop accessible from the rear-left house is highly recommended. This rooftop features a usable ladder, making it challenging for enemies to corner you. If you do find yourself surrounded, you have the option to escape by descending the ladder.

Hunk

When a formidable opponent shows up, focus your early shots on the torso to maximize your point.
