Hey did you know that every location in Kaiju Attack unlocks a special area ability at level 7? Well now you do! What if I told you that some are better than others… and there’s one that’s absolutely vital? Well then, read on!
Area Ability tier list
Essential
- U.K. – Absolutely essential. It makes tiles attacked by Kaiju recover immediately, instead of in the next turn.
Useful
- France – Reduces secret weapon cost by one energy per turn
- Germany – Increases the damage of your secret weapon.
- Japan – More gold. Useful sooner rather than later.
Whenever
- China
- Russia
- Taiwan
- USA
- Bermuda – This is the second-best ability in the game, except that you don’t unlock it until the end anyway, so it’s not like you get a choice.
U.K.
You know how when a tile gets attacked by Kaiju, it’s replaced by a warning sign and it takes a turn for that tile to recover? Well this ability makes those tiles recover immediately, and that means significantly more moves for you!
France
Makes every secret weapon cheaper to run per turn (costs one less energy). Incredibly useful when you’ve just started a board, and becomes less useful over time. Doesn’t make much of a difference for the higher cost specials.
Germany
Extra damage for free. Can’t say no to that!
Russia
Makes your tanks do one more damage each. Not terrible, but not exciting either.
China
Gives two heart immediately, whenever you match citizens/survivors. Useful in the first couple of turns, probably won’t save you in the higher Kaiju levels.
Taiwan
Gives two energy any time you combine buildings. Useful, but forgettable.
Japan
Free money!
USA
Your planes will do one more damage each every attack. Not insignificant, but not game-changing.
Bermuda
Hey, if you’ve gotten this far, you know what you’re doing. Congratulations! You’ll probably find my Kaiju guide more useful, and good luck!
