Noobs Are Coming puts the player in the shoes of the final boss in an arena where they must fight off waves of enemies. The main goal is to withstand increasingly powerful attacks from attackers called Noobs over the course of a 30-minute round. There is a list of boss characters to choose from, including the Giant Worm, the Spider Queen, or the seductive Succubus. After that, it is necessary to create a unique build, equipping the hero with special abilities and combining dozens of different attacks to build a defensive tactic. The gameplay in Noobs Are Coming is focused on creating special builds and finding effective combinations between equipment and skills.
