1.Your Monster When you start the game you have to choose a monster (personally I like Maurice). If you like it easy choose Maurice. If you like it harder choose Cezar. I can't make any remarks about the secret character.
2.Devices and contraptions Devices and contraptions are the weapons that help you in the game. When you choose a device/contraption you have to place it strategically. Like the ice towers where they can freeze the more enemies. Same thing applies to all devices/contraptions.
3.Doom chest The main goal of the game is to protect your doom chest so keep it heavily guarded with traps and(more preferably) your monster. But to keep it protected much longer upgrade it equally with your monster.
4.Enemies As you play enemies get harder and appear longer and more frequent. That's why you either want to attack with your moster/device/contraption in the best place that will both protect your chest and get rid of enemies.
5.Strategy As you play you eventually you get used to it and use the same strategy. So why not test out multiple ones in different files? That way you can develope the best strategy possible and get the highest score possible(maybe).
And those are the tips I have for Trap Master. I hope thay help with your gaming experience!
Yah but when you upgrade your monster's(depending on which one you chose) abilities and not the doom chest you could have enemies just chopping at it for little portions which add up big time.
i completely agree that cezar is horrible. and she isnt an octopus, she is a brain. i think it stink how after lvl 35-ish all that you do is rebuild walls and set more bombs. by this time nobody really makes it past the 2nd wall. great game until there though. also i find it best to upgrade the frost traps and monster first.
