BoomCounter is a simple tactical counter for quickly planning energy use before an attack in strategy games. Tap gunboat abilities and hero abilities to calculate used energy, remaining energy, and the next energy cost for each ability. It helps you check whether your planned attack fits within your available energy before you start. Key features ・Automatic energy calculation ・Adjustable available energy ・Used and remaining energy display ・Usage count for each ability ・Next energy cost display ・One-tap repeat of your last attack plan ・Reset function ・Refined dark tactical interface This update improves the app’s stability by replacing the old online data loading system with fixed in-app data. The interface has also been redesigned to make important battle-planning information easier to read at a glance. No account or complicated setup is required. Open the app, tap the abilities you plan to use, and check your energy plan instantly. If you want to use the same pattern again, you can restore the previous plan with one button. BoomCounter is designed to make pre-attack planning faster, clearer, and more practical.
Cedar Latch

Cedar Latch turns the loft into a living signal board. Swap gems into cascading lines, then catch glowing telegraphs in a short parry window to break enemy posture and execute. Each Ante opens numbered berths on a node rail. Skirmishes teach pattern reading; Boss nodes force you to learn attack phases. Switch Jobs mid-fight so your matches exploit color weaknesses. Fail a parry and an ally Peg can fall for the rest of the run. Defeat still feeds Relic Echo — permanent tools that reshape the next climb. Progress is session-based: Continue a berth, draft relics, grow your Job codex, and chase deeper Antes. Grain Shelf Desk tunes light and amber accents. Privacy opens in an in-app browser.
