It's a survival game. When you spawn in its generates randomly lots of rocks and between some resourses. Somewhere the rocks are close to each other. Thats a good place because you need a base. you can one hit the rocks but the enemies can't touch them. You need to a place a pylon to block the way in and place turrets to defend. Most imrove everything so its a bit difficult. The rocks sets your base size. You must hurry because at nighttime in the center hive will spawn a lots of various zerglings that only want to eat you, so you must defend all night long. when daytime comes they're get vaporized by the sunlight. there are 4 resources: mineral, plasma, vespene gas, and terrazine. The vespene gas is the most useful because you can buy upgrades witht it to inprove your harvest speed and quatity. You got choosable skills and skins but you can choose them only when you survive e. g. 20 night. When they break trough and catch you they turn you to ghost and you get your score and get XP. Then you restart. :D

Hopefully not. That map was immensly boring. I eventually ended up leaving after survivng for no less than 5 hours (or was it 7...).

Anyway, the idea behind it was prety easy. Just dig out as much as you can with keeping a single entrance with low exposure and a long windy path and then tower everywhere while everyone else builds up stupid ammounts of resource generators.

It was a bit lame that generating resources did not award experience. I was in the stupid situation of generating 80% of our teams generator income but having 0 kills and 0 experience.
