How to beat The Sandman

  • Arrives at midnight in Overtime. Fires rings of sleep dust and summons packs of ten Sleep Gremlins at a time.
  • The gremlins are fast but fragile: area weapons like Hot Coffee, Swivel Chairs and Sticky Notes wipe them out.
  • Grab every coffee you see during the fight. Fatigue makes everything faster.

Reading the attacks: bosses only attack while they're on your screen. Before a ring of memos, the boss flashes and raises both hands for about half a second, and every ring leaves an open lane (two in the big ones): find the gap instead of running. Boss shots fade out after 16 m.

Every boss drops a Supply Crate, a pizza and a ring of Gold Stars. From noon on, a boss can also drop a Golden Crate that forges a Legendary.
