Many of the “missions” later on in the game will require that you connect the game to your Facebook account and start adding people if you don’t already have friends. If you have at least one friend in the game, then you’re fine, but if not, then go to either the game’s official Facebook page or a Facebook fan page (or to an App store review) and respond to any Add Me requests. Or go to the comment box below and post a request, or add people who have posted requests.
For one quest you only need to beat a friend, but for another quest you need to have the top score out of all of your friends. To make it easy on yourself, go delete your friends who have a higher score than you, and then go back to the game and you’ll beat that quest.
To beat Vector, avoid the robots he throws at you, then when he throws the smaller robots with targets on them at you, tap them and you’ll fling them at his ship. Three hits will beat him. To beat Meena, who can only be found in the residential area, avoid the robots she throws at you, and avoid her ship when she tries to ram you. Tap on the small robots with the targets on them, and you’ll damage her ship. Two hits will defeat her.
To make distance missions easier, as you’re starting, tap the minion launcher upgrade that flashes as you begin the stage, since it costs bananas and not tokens.
The game has a tendency to slow down at times. To stop it from slowing down, shut down all of the other apps that you’re running at the time, and it should perform much more quickly. If that doesn’t work, then go to the options menu and shut off the music and the sound effects.
