About Cardboard Delivery Service

You work in a Cardboard Delivery Service. And no, you don't deliver cardboard—your job is far more important: you deliver handshake packets between towers of your area network.

The towers can emit and receive signals, but they cannot establish connections on their own. That’s where you come in.

Be careful: the signal cannot pass through objects. While this is not a problem for large network towers, it becomes a serious challenge for your small van and hub towers. Keep an eye on your signal indicator — if you drive too fast or too far, you might lose connection entirely.

• The goal of the game is to connect signals between the large towers and build a working network.
  
  
• Large towers are marked on your screen, making them easier to locate.
  
• Each tower can act as an Emitter and/or a Receiver.
  A tower becomes an Emitter once it receives a signal from another tower.
• To successfully connect distant towers, you should use hub towers (the smaller ones). They help you route the signal around obstacles and carry it from one large tower to another. Hub towers also have smaller markers on the screen.
• If an obstacle appears between the signal source and your van, the connection is lost. That’s why hub towers are essential for maintaining the signal.
• Once you connect a signal to a large tower, the hub towers used in that connection become available again, and the signal is then transmitted directly between the large towers.
• Monitor your signal strength. If you move too fast, you may lose your connection.
