Each level in Sipher Odyssey features a main objective you must complete to progress. These win conditions challenge your skills in different ways and keep gameplay fresh and exciting!
Eliminate All Enemies
What to do: Defeat all enemies in the level
- Watch the counter at the top of your screen to track your progress
- The counter shows "Kill [X/Y] Targets" where X is your current progress and Y is the total needed
- Clear each area methodically to ensure you don't miss any enemies
Pro tip: Save your most powerful abilities for dense enemy groups to clear them faster!
Survive
What to do: Stay alive for the specified time
- A timer at the top of the screen shows your remaining time
- Enemies will continue to spawn throughout the duration
- You only need to focus on staying alive, not eliminating every enemy
Pro tip: In multiplayer, as long as one player survives until the timer ends, everyone wins!
Eliminate Target(s)
What to do: Find and defeat specific marked enemies within the time limit
- Target enemies only appear after you've defeated a certain number of regular enemies
- A timer shows how long you have to eliminate all targets
- Direction arrows point to targets that are off-screen
- Target icons appear above marked enemies when they're visible
Pro tip: Target enemies are often tougher than regular enemies, so save your special abilities for them!
Protect Object
What to do: Defend a specific object from enemy attacks for a set time
- A timer shows how long you need to protect the object
- The object has its own health bar
- Enemies will prioritize attacking the object
- If the object is destroyed, you fail the level
Pro tip: Position yourself between enemies and the object, and use crowd control abilities to keep enemies away!
Bonus Objectives: Extra Challenges, Extra Rewards
Each level also offers optional bonus objectives that reward you with additional augments or mana when completed. These objectives are tracked individually for each player, so your teammates' actions won't affect your rewards!
Weapon Mastery Challenges
- Melee Only: Complete the level using only melee weapons
- Range Only: Complete the level using only ranged weapons
The HUD will display "Only use MELEE ATK" or "Only use RANGED ATK" to remind you of the active challenge.
Flawless Performance
- No Damage: Complete the level without taking any damage
- HP Threshold: Finish with your health above a certain percentage (e.g., "Keep HP Above 50% [68%]")
If you've taken damage but have healing abilities, you can still complete the HP Threshold challenge by recovering your health before the level ends!
Time Challenge
- Quick Clear: Complete the main objective under a tight time limit
- The HUD will display "Clear Level in Xs" where X is the time limit
Rewards & Benefits
Completing bonus objectives grants you valuable rewards:
- Augment Mana: Extra mana for selecting more augments
- Free Augments: Automatically granted augments that don't require mana to acquire
When you complete a bonus objective, you'll see a quick notification and icon showing your reward (💎+2 for mana, augment icon for free augments).
After clearing the level, any free augments you've earned will appear highlighted in the augment selection screen!
Vivi's Voice Guidance
Your companion Vivi will announce objectives when you enter a level, helping you understand what you need to accomplish:
- Main objective first
- Bonus objectives second
You can toggle Vivi's voice announcements ON/OFF in the Pause Menu.
Multiplayer Notes
- In multiplayer mode, the main objective is shared among all players
- Bonus objectives are tracked separately for each player
- For main objectives, as long as one player survives or completes the goal, everyone succeeds
- Bot actions don't affect your bonus objectives in single-player mode
Remember, Sipher: adapting your strategy to each objective type is key to mastering the challenges of Sipheria!
