The Assassin Protocol Scoring

  • The Baseline: Every player starts with 10 physical tokens (worth 0 net points on the dashboard to start).

  • The Winner Bonus (+2): For every token a player has over 10, they gain 2 bonus points. (e.g., if a player finishes with 15 tokens = +10 points added to their final score).

  • The Victim Penalty (-1): For every token a player has under 10, they lose 1 point. (e.g., if a player finishes with 7 tokens = -3 points deducted from their final score).

  • Total Annihilation: If a player loses all 10 of their tokens, the maximum penalty to their final score is -10 points.

    • Note: This only takes out of the Assassin Protocol.

  • If a player is unable to present total amount of tokens at the end of the contest, 10 point will be subtracted from your final score.

Not including life token points

Candidate Advisory: System Survival Tips

  • The Final Audit: Assassin Protocol points are not automatically tracked by your device. You must physically surrender your final token pile to the Guards at HQ before the system closes to claim your bonus.

  • Environmental Awareness: This facility has blind spots. Inspect every digital graphic, read the margins, and click the empty spaces. You never know what—or who—is hiding in the network.

  • Network Expansion: Do not ignore the human element. Speak to the Specialists in every Village; a simple conversation often yields critical operational intelligence.
