Mecha Fire merges fast-paced action–RPG combat with base-building strategy, set in a hostile Martian environment. You take on the role of a commander responsible for establishing and maintaining a thriving settlement. Your mission involves gathering resources, upgrading vital infrastructure, defending against alien threats, and deploying heroic teams of pilots and mechs to reclaim Mars. In this guide, we will be explaining the core gameplay mechanics in beginner-friendly language to help new players progress faster. Let’s start!

Understanding the Core Gameplay Mechanics of Mecha Fire

In Mecha Fire, the entire gameplay revolves around humanity trying to colonize Mars and other stellar planets. This is a gruesome task, coming with its own set of responsibilities. Players are thrown right into the game, and hand-holded with the main chapter missions. These missions can be seen from the bottom left-hand side of the main menu. New players should always focus on completing the main story missions as they entail progression. You also get handsomely rewarded for completing each individual mission on top of the entire chapter.

Mecha Fire is a build and battle game that mixes both city-building and idle combat mechanics. The base-building is done in parts, with some buildings being unlocked earlier than others. Players need to take the help of Drones if they want to build anything or upgrade an existing building. All the construction related work requires core resources that you can obtain by participating in expedition missions, completing quests, events, and more. As you progress farther, new gameplays systems and game modes will also unlock that offer lucrative resources.

Core Reactor and other buildings

Your starting point is the Core Reactor, which not only powers your settlement but also unlocks other structures. Upgrade it early to boost power capacity and house more colonists. Next, establish and level up key buildings:

• Power Plant: Supplies energy vital for your entire base.
• Tunnel Farms & Dining Hall: Ensure food production and keep your colony fed.
• Living Pods: Provide housing for colonists, expanding your workforce.
• Water Works: Secures clean water supply for your people.

Heroes

Heroes are the core bread and butter characters that all players can recruit from the gacha system of Mecha Fire. Heroes come in different rarities, with R being the lowest, and SSR being the highest. The higher the rarity of the hero, the stronger they are considered due to having superior base stats, and better quality of abilities. Each hero possesses 2 types of abilities – expedition and exploration. These are also the 2 different game modes where you can use your heroes.

Much like any other RPG, players can also train and enhance their heroes to make them stronger. All heroes, regardless of their rarity, can be trained to get more stats. For starters, you can level up heroes to directly increase their base stats such as Attack, Defense, and Health. Next, you can enhance the skills of your heroes to make them more effective in battles, and deal more damage. If you managed to summon duplicates of the same hero, you can also enhance the star value of the hero to give them extra stats and empower their abilities.

Hero Recruit System

In Mecha Fire, players need to participate in the gacha system if they want access to some of the more lucrative and stronger heroes. This system makes use of probabilities to offer heroes to the player. The recruit system unlocks after you complete the chapter 4 quests. There are 2 types of summoning banners, each requiring different currencies to summon on:

• Advanced Recruit – In this summoning banner, players can summon for R-SR heroes and their shards. Many items such as speed-ups, skill codex, energy, power, water, etc, are also available to be summoned at differing probabilities. All players get 1 free summon on this banner daily.
• Honor Recruit – In this summoning banner, players can summon for R-SSR heroes and their shards. Many items such as speed-ups, skill codex, energy, power, water, etc, are also available to be summoned at differing probabilities. All players get 1 free summon on this banner daily.
