SciFighter

SF Guide.png

SciFighter is a minigame that is accessed through the PolyVac. The player has to tap as many robots as they can in the time limit. During the event, the minigame rewarded event currency. After the event, it awards Tapped Out Junk.png, Smart Device.png, and XP.

SciFighter Win Dialogue

After winning the first SciFighter minigame
Lisa - Happy We did it! We destroyed the robots!
Bart - Sneaky What else can we blow up? Grampa's dentures? Martin's underwear?
Nelson - Happy Haw-Haw! I was able to visualize that.
Stephen Hawking I'd like to blow up all those things and more. But unfortunately, the PolyVac has a four-hour cooldown time.
Professor Frink According to the, uh, laws of science and what have you, most things take four hours.

SciFighter Loss Dialogue

After losing the first SciFighter minigame
Lisa - Alarmed Crud, the robots defeated us. This could be the end of the human race!
Nelson - Happy Haw-Haw!
Nelson And I direct that partially at myself. I can dish it out, but I can also take it.
Stephen Hawking Relax. We'll be fine. The PolyVac should regenerate in four hours.
Professor Frink According to the, uh, laws of science and what have you, most things take four hours.
