Gameplay Overview
Players join as minions summoned by a wizard, infiltrating a rival’s tower with up to five friends. The setting is a horror‑styled tower filled with magical threats.
The core loop involves causing as much inconvenience as possible—breaking pianos, clogging toilets, and other vandalism—to accumulate points toward the night’s target.
- Focus on high‑point actions like breaking large objects first.
- Coordinate with teammates to cover each other while vandalizing.

Spellcasting
The game offers a wide range of spells that let players push, pull, smash, launch, float, teleport, clone, confuse, disguise, fishify, and more. These abilities enable creative ways to disrupt the tower.
Spells are designed to be used together, encouraging teamwork to maximize chaos and overcome obstacles.
- Combine teleport and launch spells for rapid repositioning.
- Use clone spells to distract enemies while teammates vandalize.

Voice Casting
Casting spells relies on voice input; players must enunciate wizardly incantations clearly. Steady vocal delivery is essential for successful spell activation.
The system rewards precise pronunciation, making vocal control a key skill during tense moments.
- Practice the incantations in a quiet environment before playing.
- Keep a consistent microphone distance to maintain steady volume.

Players must balance vandalism with survival, as creatures patrol the tower and can interrupt progress.

- Watch creature patrol routes to avoid interruptions while vandalizing.
