Lootably’s terms for this offer are 30 days to reach level 50 with a payout of $31 for a full completion.
Swagbucks is current offering $59, but you only have 25 days to reach level 50. There are two reimbursed purchases for this offer.
The developer of Gold and Goblins has another title “Goblins Wood” which has a better payout that I would suggest doing instead of this one.
You can find my guide for that game in the Tycoons section of this site.
Strategy
This game uses ads to a high degree, so don’t be surprised. I turned off the sound pretty fast. You can watch ads to get boosts and bigger rewards. The game also disburses chests with extra loot and there is a wheel of fortune you can spin by watching ads.
You can purchase additional Goblins and upgrade your Mineshafts to improve the coin flow. When you are offline the game will accrue Coins from any Mineshafts that you have automated.
Any Mineshafts that have not been upgraded and automated will require you to manually tap on the coins that are disbursed.
Loot ChestPrize WheelUpgrades
The map is divided into sections of two to three mines with two Mineshafts per section. As you advance the level of the rocks will increase which will then require a higher-level Goblin to break.
The game is all about micromanagement and depending on how much time you are willing to devote to it will determine how much you can possibly earn.
Events
Throughout the week there will be active events where you will work to clear a themed mine. I took part in the Card Collector, Candy Frenzy, and Volcanic Eruption events. Usually, there is a long event (3-day) followed by a short event (1-day)

Tips
There is not any clear strategy I can suggest for this game offer. I would suggest saving your Green Gems to spend on Events. The Events pay out big rewards that will speed up your task in this offer, so it is good to get as far as possible in them.
I did have some trouble with getting credit. I received the first two rewards, but then it skipped the next two before paying out again. The game is listed on multiple offer walls as well as the main sites of Swagbucks and MyPoints.
You should shop around until you find one with a good valuation. When I did it, I just needed a few points to finish off my BINGO board, so I didn’t get the higher-paying version.
Empires & Puzzles (EP) is a Zynga mobile game similar to the “Puzzles &” series of games I have created guides for. I would say, though, that EP is most likely the archetype for those other games. The most marketable functions of the game are clearly present in the other games. However, EP is a far more challenging game and needs thoughtful consideration.
Upon reaching Castle Level 2, the rewards for 3 and 6 went pending immediately. The level 11 reward also went pending at Castle Level 8, and the level 21 reward was pending after completing the Castle Level 14 upgrade.
The offer allows for 60 days to complete. I purchased the 30-day VIP pack for $4.99 after 9 days of play. The VIP gets you a Second Builder, which is very important once Castle upgrades begin to take days to complete. I reached Castle Level 14 after 29 days.
There are no speedup items; you have to spend Gems, which can get expensive quite fast. You literally have to sit around for days waiting for the upgrade to finish, unless you buy the 2nd Builder.
You will also face Resource bottlenecks where your Storage Capacity cannot handle what you are generating. But the upgrade costs can, at times, exceed your capacity.
The objectives were credited to me early. I received the Level 3+6 rewards after upgrading to Castle 2. The level 11 reward went pending at level 8.
I don’t think the 30 VIP counts as a Gem Purchase. There is a login gift for accessing the Official Website every day for a week. This rewards Universal Trainers (Hero EXP) and Food Crates worth 500k each. If you miss a login day, though, you lose the streak and cannot get the crate. You can easily log in to the website by clicking on any link in the “in-game” mail system.
The offer terms
Strategy
I spent all of my Iron resources and most of my Food attempting to strengthen my troops and upgrade some unnecessary facilities. Unlike the “Puzzles &” series, here your primary source of resources is from the Farm and Mine. Be mindful of your spending.
That said, there are more options to collect resources. The Watchtower will generate resources once built. You get them from fighting on the Map, PvP battles, and purchasing them from the Shop using Gems.
The Stronghold needs to reach level 21 to get the full reward. Your HQ and all other buildings need Iron to be upgraded. The only exceptions are the Mine and the Watchtower, which can only be upgraded using Food. You will also need your Food to level up Heroes and to train new ones.
Buildings
FarmStronghold (HQ)
Food StorageTraining Camp
MineForge
Iron StorageWatchtower
HouseLevel 7 Upgrade
Heroes
There are 5 colors to match each of the tiles. Each color has a large list of corresponding heroes and a mixed selection of Class types. Fighter, Ranger, Monk, Paladin, Barbarian, Wizard, Sorcerer, and Rogue.
The heroes are ranked using a star system, including 1-5 stars. There are limitations on the maximum level of a hero based on its star rank. A single-star hero can reach a maximum of level 20. However, you can still upgrade the otherwise capped hero to improve their Special Skill.
Training Camp
This facility is used to generate both new heroes and Troops, which are attached to heroes instead of equipment, such as in other games. At the first stage, the building will be able to make Common (1-star) heroes. Further upgrades to levels 2 and 3 will unlock Uncommon (1-star and 2-star) heroes, and a faster process to generate Common heroes. At level 20, the building will make Epic and Legendary units.
Ascension
You will see a partially filled chevron on each hero; this is the Ascension rank of the hero. When a hero has maxed out its experience points for a rank, you will be able to upgrade it to the next tier, and the chevron will fill in accordingly.
The tutorial will have you upgrade and ascend Sharan (Red, Ranger), who will be your Healer for most of Season 1. After leveling her up to 10, you will be instructed to ascend her to the second chevron.
Skills
The best way to improve Special Skills is to use duplicate heroes during the leveling process. You will see that you only get a 2-4% chance of Skill improvement when selecting generic heroes as fodder for leveling. If you use a duplicate hero, you will get a 25% chance of Skill improvement. This is increased to 100% if the target hero has been fully Ascended.
Battles
Combat uses the standard Match3 style. There should be little difficulty with this, except perhaps in PvP. Notably, the combat system in EP includes the ability to craft and use Potions and other items during PvE combat to heal, buff, or debuff. You could potentially use items to clear stages if you had the spare goods available. The Forge can be upgraded to craft many useful potions.
Raids (PvP)
A feature unique to EP is the Raid function for PvP battles. The Watchtower building in town will generate resources for you over time. These resources can be collected once every hour, but are susceptible to theft by other players attacking you in Raid battles. Importantly, only the resources generated by the Watchtower can be stolen. Your primary resources are safe from attack.
The “Find Opponent” function does not match players based on their relative ranking. In the early game and beyond, you will encounter extremely powerful players in the Raid function. You can ask for a new opponent by paying Food. Be careful not to spend all of your food attempting to locate a suitable opponent.
11/14/2025: No current offers available for this title.
When it was first offered, this was like RAID or AFK Arena, where you needed to merge characters into a Legendary. Now we have to clear the chapters.
Offer Terms
The offer currently requires you to complete chapters of the Storyline within a set period.
Previous versions of the offer required users to collect Epic and Mythical Heroes to get rewards.
The offer time limit has been increased to 45 days to finish all objectives. The goals are time-based, so you will need to rush at least for the first week.
The offer terms for the Ayet offer wall now mimic those found on Swagbucks and MyPoints. The reward was reduced to $274 (in September) to finish all terms within 45 days. The new final reward is for level 31.
Ascension Chart
Upgrading Heroes
As you can see from the chart above, the game runs on the same system as AFK Arena, with users collecting multiple copies of the same hero card to upgrade a single card.
Three of the factions use a simplified upgrade plan. If you look at the bottom of the chart.
A single hero card raised to Legendary can then be upgraded all the way to Mythical using additional duplicate Epic+ hero cards.
The four standard factions, Vitalus, Ardent, Illuminated, and Eternal, use a slightly more complex combination.
You will need to use two random Epic+ and Legendary+ hero cards at select stages of the upgrade. This differs from the upgrade path at the bottom of the chart.
Game Progress
The bulk of the game’s features and functions will be unlocked after completing Stage 2-5 of the campaign.
I can’t provide any suggestions for completing the campaign other than to get some strong heroes fused. Usually, clearing stages is not the focus of game offers.

There are two other games in this franchise, shown below. Click the image to get to the guides for each offer.
Puzzles & Conquest Guide
Puzzles & Survival Guide
Server reset time is at 00:00 UTC, which for me was 7pm EST.
Talents
Your character has 3 skill trees that you can put Talent points into. You will get 3 points for each level you go up. The trees are Economic, Military, and Balanced.
I suggest skipping Balanced and only using Economic and Military. In Economics, you can get the “Rapid Build” ability with a 24-hour cooldown.
This will reduce building and research time by 20% for the next 5 minutes. This means any research or construction you start will get a 20% discount on the overall time for the whole project. For example, a 3-day (72 hours) construction will be reduced to 2.4 days (57.6 hours).
Heroes
The developer has utilized the same heroes as the other games in the “Puzzles &” franchise. If you have played any of the other games, you will quickly notice who’s who in the lineup. Some of the colors have been swapped, but the abilities are duplicates.
Combat in Puzzles & Chaos is by far the best out of all of the games. The graphics are spectacular, though on slower devices this may prove debilitating.
As with the other offers, I will once again stress the importance of focusing on your Economic heroes. You will notice they have a Book icon on their profile images. Military heroes will have either a sword, a bow, or a horse.
The starter team will be fine for clearing the Campaign storyline. You will get replacement heroes for the 2-star heroes from the story. Barron, Sophia, and Luke will be replaced quickly.
3 of the Economic heroes can be acquired from Hunting Monsters and defeating Monster Dens. There will be an early Event where you can get Odell, a 4-star Blue Wolf hero with an AoE attack.
The castle town map will initially be frozen and under a “fog-of-war,” but once you clear the tutorial, it will clear and be sunny and green.
This game allows you to rearrange the position of the building however you like. There are cosmetic items like trees, shrubs, and statuary that can be added to customize the appearance of your town. The Event cosmetic items will provide stat bonuses to your town.
Your resource buildings will be limited early on. For the first 4-5 levels, you will only have a single Lumber building. You will be reliant on collecting resources on the world map for the majority of this game, as compared to other games by this developer.
Beginner Event
The beginner event runs for 7 days with an 8th day available for final redemptions. Similar to the other “Puzzles &” games, there will be 3 award tiers available based on the final level of your Citadel (Castle/HQ).
You will need to acquire 800 points by completing objectives to get the 5-star hero (Zeus/Prometheus). If you also reach the previously mentioned Citadel level tiers, you will get extra Shards to upgrade this 5-star hero.
Purchases
What you buy will be the same as in the other games. You want to get the Builder and Researcher gear sets, which are 4.99 USD each. You may also want to buy the 2nd builder for 1.99 USD.
The 1st Top-Up offer is 4.99 USD and will get you Saya who is a 5-star Red Economic hero who speeds up construction times (Free Speed Up + Construction Time -%). I didn’t buy Saya because to get the full-speed bonus, you will need to upgrade her to the max tier, which will cost far more money.
The Purple 4-star hero Elsa can be bought for 1.99 USD. She increases construction speeds. You will also get some resources and speed-up items with the purchase.
I have had bad experiences with this developer not paying back the reimbursed purchases in the past for both Puzzles & Survival and Puzzles & Conquest. I do not plan on buying the Weekly or Monthly Cards.
The offer can be done as Free-to-Play, but don’t expect to reach the highest level of rewards.
The benefits of the VIP system are useful, but not required to complete the offer. You can purchase VIP points directly using Diamonds in the Shop.
Each day you log in you will receive some points, but this will take a long time to rank up your VIP level.
A good alternative is to use your Alliance Points to trade for VIP points. You can ask either the Leader or an R4 member to stock the Alliance Shop with VIP points.
I stopped buying VIP points after reaching rank 5, the benefits are listed in the following table.
Auto Combat in Mesdi Portal
Free Building Speedup: 6-min
Can use AP restoration items 6x per day
Can save 2 troop lineup(s)
Hunt March Speed +15%
Food Output +5%
Wood Output +5%
Stone Output +5%
Iron Output +5%
Quick Queue Speedup
VIP Benefits (Rank 5)
Redemption Codes
They no longer offer codes for free stuff. The publisher now provides links on their website that distribute rewards after launching the game.
Battle Warship is offered for 766 SB on the OfferToro wall. This offer can be completed in 7 days if you use your free speed-up items. No money needs to be spent completing this game offer. Construction requirements are listed below.
The requirements call for base level 14. To reach this you will need to level up your buildings as follows.
Radar 12
Storehouse 13
Command Center 6
Aircraft Factory 10
Research Lab 11
Dock 10
Warship Depots 8
Energy, Oil 12
Uranium 13
Resources can easily be gathered from Power Plants and Oil Rigs. Uranium does not get used for buildings until level 20. Uranium will be used for Aircraft but you will get more than enough from all of the freebies and regular events.
Unlike other games there is no cap on the number of “marches” you can have out at one time. Your fleets are each led by an Aircraft Carrier and you can send out as many as you have available. You will get 5 Carriers as part of the tutorial and early mission rewards. A 6th Carrier can be purchased for 500 Gold from the Shop.
You can join an Alliance for the Help timers to speed things up or you can make your own Alliance and go solo. Either way, you will have access to Alliance Missions and regular Event bonuses. There is a function in the game to Expel players who are physically located within the Domain of your Alliance (img6) which is useful as this allows more resources to spawn near your base.
Attacking the World BOSS requires a base level of 10. Once you are able to do so I would suggest taking part in the event. You can earn materials needed for upgrading your Aircraft Carriers. The offer actually credited at Base level 13 but you never really know with these offers how it may go down. Best of luck!
Update 2023: Offer terms are crazy hard now. Not possible in my opinion.
When I originally did this offer it took me 7 months to finish. The offer terms are 35 days currently to earn USD 107.
Before I had to get an Orange tier clone. New terms say you need a Red tier, which takes 4 Oranges with two of them being specific clones you have to get.
One of the rewards for $20 says to get VIP 5, but it costs $98 (absolutely crazy).

September 15, 2020: I just finished the Swagbucks offer for the game Clone Evolution. I think I started the game back around March? I don’t even remember how many points I was supposed to get for it.
This offer did not have a time limit on It so I knew it was going to take a long time to finish. The offer required me to get a Hero up to Orange quality.
I reached account level 76 and spent $5 from a GC that I bought to fulfill a credit card offer and around $3 worth of Google Play credit. This unlocked the first level of VIP and got me some Gems for the first month. The Google Play credits were all from doing surveys on the Google Opinions app.
I was trying to get my Water and Fire-type heroes up to Orange. At some point, I noticed I had enough points in the Arena challenges to buy 2 copies of Founding Fathers. I had gotten one copy from a Red summon scroll and the other Heroes I needed were in my Inventory.
I am glad to be done with this offer and now I am looking for something else to grind on. I still need to finish Epic Summoners and Coin Master.
I have earned $350 so far on Swagbucks and am waiting for a $250 Amazon GC I recently redeemed my points on.
Update for 2023: The offer terms have changed drastically over the years. In the good ole days, you could just level your Mansion up to 16-21 to get the reward. They’ve smartened up and no longer offer that path.
In my opinion, the current terms cost more money than the reward offered.
You could maybe do the Babe unlock and some of the Underboss leveling. But the crafted items like the ‘Grand Architect’ set need to be [Yellow] tier which does require purchasing packs (collecting the required materials is not possible in 30 days).

03/15/21: I finished this in under a week but Revenue Universe denied me the points. They said the advertiser claimed it was not my first time. The only other Mafia game I’ve played is “Mafia City” which is from the same publisher but a different game in the app store.
So be careful if you’ve done other Mafia games as they are both published by Yotta Game, you might get denied. 1192 SB with the doubler. Very irritating.
I saved up all of the Gold I received from Events and rewards. I think I had maybe 26k gold and then I used it all to buy my way to the Mansion level requirements.
