Warcodes is so good that you will want to leave the house.

As the type of monster, its resistance and weakness are generated by the barcode you scan, variety is key to a winning team. You’ll want a barcode that might spawn a monster to round out your deck. Maybe you need a metal resist, or a strong radiation monster. Just as you think you have finally found a metal monster, confidently scanning a code you found on the back of a metal bath rail in Home Depot, you’ll spawn another earth monster added to your small AI army.

Once you have mastered the basics of monster generation, you can put your monsters to the test in King of the Hill. Warecodes is a hidden gem that can hold the interest of even experienced gamers. The combat system might first seem like luck, maybe you’re just another dice roll away from winning if you have enough tokens.

Once you take a hill, defending your place is a skill of its own.

Each addition can make a monster even tougher to defeat, but a skilled player knows how to win the war.

Hot Tip: Beat the AI
We have found that there are patterns to how monsters are generated. It’s common that fire types will have an ice or water weakness and vice versa, so adding water or ice attacks to a fire monster can be a good play. Dark and light monsters are often weak to each other, so finding a monster that bucks the trend can be a huge win. Maybe you find a dark monster that’s resistant to light and weak to spirit, or a water monster that resists fire. Patterns like this come up with each element, so scan to see what you find. Once you see what monster generations are more common, you can choose what upgrades to give your monsters more wisely.
