This one is for lower levels as the rest of you should know this already.

Mines: Pull them down when they’re about to expire. You get back half the resource cost to build a level 1 mine.

Fields and Wells: Only build the lowest level ones. They cost stone and pinewood planks, not the valuable marble you need for buildings. They cost no licences so build more than 1 rather than build a higher level field.

Lootspots (LS): If you see one take it. Say yes please in chat. Look at all those free resources. We believe in paying forward so we’ll happily give you the spots (and when you level up you’ll be offering them to the lower levels).

Buildings: Group building types together. It makes your buff buddy have an easier time. Stick your fish farms/hunters in the same place. It means you only have to refill one deposit.

Buff Buddies: Find someone your level – buff each other.

Buffs: All you see in chat is steak, Steak, STEAK. Yes they last 48 hrs. They cost a crap load of meat. Irma’s are actually better value for money.

Explorers: If you get a chance to purchase one in any shape or form do it they more than pay for themselves in the long run.

Residences: Never above level 3 and as soon as you can get noble residences. Going to level 4 becomes expensive.

Gems: Don’t spend them. Keep ’em. And if you want to purchase them wait until a 100% sale is on.

OK I’ve run out of ideas and need ice cream..

Happy Settling,
