How to approach it
The night opens at wave 5 with 20 enemies arriving in 5 groups. The first group is 5 darts coming in on a low sweep from the side. 5 armoured hexagons take three hits each and fire spreads from the top rows. No raiders cross the screen. 2 enemies drop capsules: 1 × rapid fire and 1 × extra life. On Normal you have three lives and one shield charge.
- Go for the hexagons as soon as they settle: three hits each, and their spread is what ends most watches at this wave.
- Stay low and to one side while the groups fly in, then work across the formation from that side.
