### **1. Description**
The game is set in the realm of Oasis, which has been consumed by a mysterious darkness. You play as the "Chosen Commander," tasked with recruiting a team of legendary heroes to push back the forces of shadows. While the core of the game is a strategic hero-collector, the "Shoot & Run" aspect refers to a persistent mini-game mechanic used to multiply your forces and earn resources.
### **2. Key Features**
* **The "Multiplier Gate" Runner:** A signature mini-game where you swipe left and right to guide your squad through gates (e.g., x2, +10). Choosing the right path multiplies your firepower and helps you crush waves of enemies.
* **Idle Progress:** Your heroes continue to fight and gather resources (Gold, EXP, and Gear) even while you are offline, allowing for steady progression without constant manual grinding.
* **Strategic Grid Combat:** The main RPG battles take place on a 4x4 grid. Positioning your warriors, rangers, and priests is critical to countering enemy formations and faction advantages.
* **Faction System:** Heroes belong to five distinct factions: **Forest, Legion, Undead, Light, and Shadow**. Matching heroes of the same faction provides powerful team synergies and stat boosts.
* **Extensive Content:** Beyond the main campaign, the game features the **Glory Arena (PvP)**, **Magic Expedition (Rogue-like)**, and the **Blessing Temple**, which helps you level up low-tier heroes instantly.
### **3. How to Play**
* **Recruitment:** Use "Summon Circles" to call forth new heroes. Focus on building a balanced team consisting of at least one Tank (Warrior), one Healer (Priest), and multiple DPS (Rangers/Mages).
* **The "Run" Phase:** Complete the runner-style levels to unlock new chapters in the main story. These levels test your reflexes and math skills as you choose the most beneficial multiplier gates.
* **Hero Management:** Level up your "Core Five" heroes. Other heroes can be placed in the **Blessing Temple** to inherit the level of your 5th strongest hero, saving you massive amounts of resources.
* **Auto-Battle:** Once you've set your grid formation, the heroes fight automatically using their unique "Ultimate Skills" when their energy bars are full.
### **4. How to Win: Strategy & Tips**
* **The Backline Warrior:** When facing Assassins (who teleport to the back of your team), place a high-defense Warrior in the very back row to protect your fragile Healers and Rangers.
* **Faction Counters:** If you are stuck on a level, check the enemy's faction. Forest beats Legion, Legion beats Undead, and Undead beats Forest. Light and Shadow counter each other.
* **Don't Waste Gems:** Save your Gems for **10x Summons** rather than single pulls, as this provides better value and guaranteed higher-tier heroes over time.
* **Gear Forge:** Regularly visit the forge to "Quick Merge" your equipment. Higher-quality gear provides massive stat multipliers that are often more important than the hero's base level.
* **Resetting Heroes:** If you accidentally invested heavily in a low-tier hero, use the **Altar** to reset them. This returns 100% of the materials used, allowing you to reinvest them into a Mythic-tier hero.
