Understanding the Road to Toxic Brainz

The Infinity Time Game Mode

Infinity Time is a unique game mode located in the Town Hall area of the Backyard Battleground. This mode pits players against waves of enemies and bosses within a challenging environment. The primary objective is to survive and collect as many Time Shards as possible. Successful completion of Infinity Time runs and performance within the mode directly influence the number of Time Shards earned. The amount of Time Shards you earn during each run depends on how many waves you successfully beat.

• Focus on survival: Prioritize staying alive to clear as many waves as you can. Each wave you complete will earn more shards.
• Master the gameplay: Get familiar with the different enemy types and attack patterns in the Infinity Time mode. Practice makes perfect!
• Use multipliers effectively: The game features multiplier systems during the Infinity Time which will increase your time shard reward upon completion.
• Play as the correct character: Playing as the correct character can make it much easier to survive the waves and collect shards.
