Welcome to the Bureau of Energy Supremacy

Our Benevolent Ruler has decreed that the full might of our Glorious Nation become apparent to the world.

All efforts will be focused on increasing every form of power. Military might, political weight and energy accumulation are primary concerns.

We at the Bureau are tasked with ever increasing the energy reserves of this Great Nation. The electricity of neighboring nations is to be covertly diverted and retained for our use.

Success will bring glory our Great Nation and you will be rewarded. But be warned: Fail to continuously increase our reserves and you will be... replaced.

Tips

  • you will collect only one (1) unit of energy each turn. You're trying to be sneaky, remember? But you always need to collect or it's game over.
  • you can enhance battery capacity and connections by selecting a battery and pressing "improve a battery"
  • always make sure you have enough capacity to collect more power
  • connecting a battery to more networks will reduce how quickly power grids become suspicious and close down your connections
  • you can try to get a better connection - select an existing connection point and try again. But this could be time spent making more connections so choose wisely!
  • Currently I think the maximum high score you can get is somewhere in the range of 21. I didn't have time to tune this the way I would have liked, but I think getting to 21 should be pretty tricky anyway.
