Each successive blockhead will cost a different (increasing) amount of time crystals, starting at 50 for a second, 100 for a third, 150 for a fourth, and 200 for a fifth blockhead.

Although [[Game updates/20131010|version 1.4]] introduced the ability for blockheads to attack each other, this only works during [[multiplayer]] encounters. In [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]], a setting was added allowing PVP to be disabled during multiplayer. A blockhead cannot directly interact with another blockhead controlled by the same player.
