Triops, also known as tadpole shrimp, are a small group of freshwater crustaceans, that have been around for hundreds of millions of years. And here, you can raise your own very colony of them. They start off really small, but they can reach a staggering 3 inches, in body length, in captivity. Tutorial: •You begin with 10 eggs. It is recommended to place all these eggs, into the tank, to start off your colony. To place them, press the white button, with the "U/V." Then click/tap the screen, in any location, to place the eggs. Do not forget to click/tap this button again, to turn off the placing function, before interacting with other buttons. •Triops are short-lived, and will die after, up to, 3-5 minutes. Fortunately, they usually give eggs, afterwards, completing their life cycle. Keep placing these eggs until your colony gets recognizably big. •Once you obtain enough eggs, press the green button, with the "+," to convert eggs into T-Dollars. If you sell too many eggs, or want to buy more, press the red button, with the "—," to transfer T-Dollars into eggs. •After making a fair amount of T-Dollars, visit the shop to purchase upgrades. Click/tap the cyan button, with the "$," to access it. Remember to click/tap it again, when finished. While accessing the shop, you will meet these 3 upgrades options: 1. The gray button, with the "X," is the triops multiplier. It costs 1.25 T-Dollars, can be pressed a total of 3 times, and increases the maximum egg drop rate, by 1. 2. The gray button, with the "i," is the triops color injector. It costs 0.5 T-Dollars, can be pressed a total of 4 times, and increases the overall color diversity, by 25%. 3. The gray button, with the "0," is the triops skin toner. It costs 0.25 T-Dollars, can be pressed a total of 5 times, and increases the overall skin tone diversity, by 13%. •Any features added, from now, will have their instructions provided in the future. Most importantly, remember to have fun. Stats: •EGG: Shows the amount of triops you have. •TDOLLARS: Shows the amount of T-Dollars you have. •TMULT: Triops multiplier. You start at a maximum drop rate of 3 eggs per triop. •TCOLOR: Triops color injector. The overall color diversity starts at 0%. •TSHADE: Triops skin toner. The overall skin tone diversity starts at 0%.
