More about this game
In Orb Survivor: Magic Arena, you guide a crystalline orb through a cursed arena filled with endless waves of enemies. The orb automatically casts magic bolts at the nearest foe. Defeated enemies drop XP gems that you collect to level up and choose powerful upgrades like Triple Shot, Freeze, or Speed. The difficulty increases as time passes, with fast wraiths appearing after one minute and heavy brutes after two minutes. A massive boss spawns every 180 seconds. The run ends when your orb's health reaches zero.
Tips
- Prioritize collecting XP gems early to level up. The first level requires 24 XP, but the requirement scales up by 34 percent each time.
- Keep moving to avoid getting surrounded, especially when fast wraiths appear after 60 seconds or heavy brutes spawn after 120 seconds.
- Prepare for the boss fight every 180 seconds by selecting the Shield upgrade, which reduces incoming damage by over half and adds 18 maximum health.
Questions
How do I attack enemies?
Your orb automatically casts magic bolts at the nearest enemy every 0.58 seconds. You just need to focus on moving, dodging, and staying close enough to hit them.
How do I heal my orb?
You can heal your orb by selecting the Shield upgrade when you level up. This grants you a rotating barrier, increases your maximum health by 18, and restores 30 health points immediately.
What happens when the boss appears?
A massive boss spawns every 180 seconds. It has significantly more health than regular enemies and hits harder, but defeating it drops 12 high-value XP gems to help you level up quickly.
