I started this offer through InboxDollars with a maximum payout of $119 for reaching Chief Hall 24 in 45 days. The terms include 4 required purchases which are partially reimbursed (50%).
There’s also several times goals, such as reaching Chief Hall 9 on your first day of play, and Chief Hall 16 by the 5th day. Both goals also require an in-app purchase. This can be accomplished by completing the other spending goals.
Viking Rise is a standard 4X Game with a Norse theme, there are several other “Viking” themed mobile games with similar design and format.
On other play-to-earn platforms, the offer terms are to collect 23 Heroes.
There are actually only 22 heroes available Free-to-Play (F2P), so if you are doing that offer, you will need to complete the “First Purchase” event to get the special hero.
The following guide was written by happyadjustablespnrs in the Inbox_Pounds subreddit. Be sure to give the original post an upvote if you find this useful.
Viking Rise Tips
Viking Rise on Inbox Pounds offers £34.10 for collecting 23 heroes. For a ‘free to play’ attempt there are only 24 currently available.
I got 23 with only 2 x £0.99 purchases but potentially could have done it with just 1 x.
These heroes you’ll likely get through normal gameplay (early part of story, and LOTS of Hall of Valor summons):
Svienn
Waltham
Ulf
Eugen
Lindy
Snorri
Erik
Michaela
Wooden
Olena
Cecia
Ivor
These heroes may need more work:
Leidolf – available through the Leidolf in h Hiding event. There should be some Iron or Bronze bells in your inventory from normal gameplay, uses these to summon an enemy that can be defeated to get Leidolf shards.
Sheila – Can’t remember how I obtain this one sorry.
Rollo – obtainable by getting to floor 5 (I think) in the Rollo challenge which unlocks quite early. Isn’t too much hassle to do the dungeon game and then you don’t need to play this again.
Jens – I think I got lucky here as I won Jens in one of the random events. Jens can be selected as a Legendary reward for crystals. I got him on second attempt spending only 250 crystals. You might have to spend much more. You won’t get him through the staging post rewards in the time available.
Laird – I got some shards through the Wheel of Fortune event and then bought the remainder at the Mall for £0.99. I ended up getting enough shards after that I didn’t need to pay.
Ivana – Obtainable by participating in the Sacred Crucible which nlocks at Chief Hall level 15. I played two games and had enough points to buy the Ivana shards. Took about an hour.
Sigurd – Got him same way as Jens using crystals
Varka – Obtainable by completing the staging posts quests
Yvette – I think she is available in the First Purchase pack which I bought for £0.99
Gregory – I think he was obtained through the story, I had him very early on
The last hero needs preparation:
Verdandi / Arthur – Available through the Viking Reign event which happens once a week or once every two weeks. You need to score in the top 100 of users to be awarded 10 hero shards. You’ll need around 2 million points to reach the top 100. I got 4 million and place around 50th. Read the rules of the event but main thing is to save resources, gems and speed ups before the event starts and then use everything available to push up your score. The event lasts over 5 days so does require a bit of management to make sure you can participate each day.
General tips:
My chief hall was Level 18 when I stopped playing, I think 15 is enough though
Keep training troops when you have resources as you will need them for the Viking Reign event
Participate in the regular events to obtain more Oracle Soulstones
Use gems for Oracle Soulstones when available
Upgrade the Hall of Valor early to reduce time between free summons
The other heroes on the list are definitely not obtainable without spending much more money than the offer pays out.
You can buy some hero shards for Clan points at the Honey Tavern which is in your village.
Complete the daily tasks to get an extra Oracle Soulstone each day.
20 heroes for £19.10 is definitely achievable with some casual play over the 40 day offer window. 23 is more work and might need a bit of good luck to get the right summons.
Required Spending
Optional Purchases
The Growth Pack is only available if you have purchased/reloaded 15k Gems. There are some pop-up offers that include lots of gems that may contribute to unlocking the Growth Pack. But you can expect to spend $30 (before taxes) to get the necessary Gems.
Additional Builders are unlocked through upgrading the Chief Hall, so you won’t be prompted buy any extras for this offer.
Gift Codes for Viking Rise
Gift codes can be found on the official social media channels. The discord has codes posted twice per week and on Facebook there are weekly events.
The Viking Rise Reddit sub is essentially defunct. It looks like someone created a Fandom wiki page but never added anything to it. But that’s fine, Fandom is a nightmare full of ads and spyware.

You can only do this within 6 hours of account creation. Use code (GSPCD3FUMV) or follow the steps below.
Enter the game and reach Chief Hall Level 6 → go to [Notice Board] → tap [G-Spark News] → and enter my invite code: GSPCD3FUMV
Collecting Resources
All resources you need during the tutorial can be acquired on the Village map.
After you reach Chief Hall level 6, you can build the Porter Barracks and train Porters, a unit with a high Load capacity. These Porter’s are the unit you will use to collect resources on the World map.
Upgrading the Chief Hall
The first substantial timer for an upgrade comes at Chief Hall level 6, which is 2 hours and requires Walls and Warehouse to be at level 5 each.
Chief Hall Upgrade Path
CH 7: Walls 6, Eagle’s Nest lvl 6
CH 8: Walls 7, Infantry Barracks lvl 7

All of the “real-time” sniper combat occurs in the opening trailer and tutorial period. It’s a gimmick used to bring in players who are jaded with the current crop of trashy 4X games.
Afterwards, the game is largely a standard 4X game with base building, resource collection, alliances, and world conquest. Most battles are handled automatically with little player input.
The game is available on Android and iOS and can also be played on PC via emulators like BlueStacks.
Don’t bother with Warline, there are better ways to waste your money.
After a soft launch in August last year, the title has shown a renewed interest from YouTube game review channels, although the majority are only uploading the OP trailer and not providing any input or critique.
The game uses a generic unit upgrade path using Tiers (T1, T2, etc.) Unit art is nothing special.
Many game elements and characters will appear familiar to players of Warpath.
The gameplay style is largely borrowed from other titles in the Lilith Games family of brands.
I’d only suggest playing Warline if it were to become a Swagbucks/FreeCash offer. That is, I would only play Warline: Sniper Strike, if they paid me to play it.
Meet various medieval characters and enjoy romantic experiences, guiding your heir’s future and planning marriages. Rule your lands in sandbox mode, enhance productivity through strategic supply chains, and explore alliances, engaging in diplomacy or conflict for territory growth.
The game is a variation of the Kings Throne / King’s Choice format of castle simulations.
Don’t have kids right away: The rarity and stats of your kids depend entirely on how high your intimacy is with the parent. Use your gifts on one or two favorite lovers first. High-intimacy parents make high-tier kids, which means bigger stat boosts for you when they marry.
Look past the main quest: The tutorial quest at the bottom left of your screen is a bit blind. It completely skips over some functional buildings. Manually click your Build icon every now and then—if it has a red dot, you have a new building available that the game forgot to tell you to make.
Play the mini-games: The limited-time events are actually decent. They are usually totally separate puzzle or board games that give great rewards. It’s the best way to progress if you don’t want to spend real money.
Join an Alliance immediately: As soon as you build the Alliance hall, join a group. It opens up an extra shop, daily missions, and co-op bosses that give you a steady stream of extra materials.

Backyard
The Backyard is where you handle your lovers, your kids, and your family alliances. Getting this loop right gives you a massive power boost.
Getting Lovers
You unlock new Lovers by hitting certain Kingdom Power milestones during the Tutorial.
Afterwards, new Lovers can be acquired by encountering them a sufficient number of times on the Post House map.
Certain special Events will include new Lovers and the VIP system includes several premium Lovers.
Dating
In the Lover Tower, you can pay resources to Summon a specific lover (best way to get a pregnancy) or do Random Dates for cheap intimacy points.
You can also give them flowers to increase their Intimacy which in turn will boost Offspring’s stats. Charm items will increase the total Aptitude EXP Lovers receive from Dating.

Castle
Your kingdom needs to generate cash (gold) to keep moving. Here is how to keep the economy flowing.
Level Cap

Earning Gold
Buildings like the Farm and Smithy print money. Upgrade them 5 times, and you unlock a slot to assign a servant to them. You can eventually stack up to 3 servants per building to max out your gold income.
Match Retainer bonuses with corresponding businesses to gain greater rates of income.
Exclamation Marks
Check in on real-time buildings like the Council Chamber and Backyard. If you see an exclamation mark floating over them, it means their cooldown reset and you have free rewards or actions waiting.
Feeding Homeless
Go to the Asylum outside your gates to cook broth. Use the broth to invite vagrants into your kingdom. They sit in the Vagrant Shelter until you build enough houses for them. Once you officially check them into a house, your passive gold production goes up permanently.
Battles and Retainer Upgrades
Fights
Honestly, combat is just a math check. If your military power is higher than the enemy’s and you have enough gold to fund the fight, you win. Just hit “Go” or use “Quick Battle” to breeze through them.
Retainer Stats
Retainers are your main commanders. They have four stats: Military (fighting), Politics (resource yields), Commerce (gold generation), and Wisdom (EXP/admin yields). You get more retainers by leveling up your main character profile or winning events.
Upgrading Retainers
Use your combat EXP to level them up. To upgrade their actual skills, build the College and send them there to study for a few hours.
When you raise a lover’s intimacy and upgrade their skills, it directly boosts the stats of their paired Retainer (Bond).
Don’t ignore your lovers, or your fighters will stay weak.
Characters
Lovers
Lovers may be gifted Intimacy items like Roses to boost the strength of their offspring and Charm items like Sweets to increase the amount of EXP they earn from Dating.
Retainers
New Retainers become available as the player rises in level. Special and Limited Retainers may be earned from Events and by collecting fragments or exchange items.
Your total Retainer stats equal your Power level, and is a good indicator of your effectiveness in combat (PvP), while PvE is mostly governed by your Military stat.

Upgrade buildings and technologies, train troops, gather resources, expand your territory. Command your dragon and lead your allies to victory in massive fantasy warfare.
Reaching the T4 Troops and 3M Power goals is achievable, so a possible $196 in rewards, before expenses.
I made it! Tier 4 Troops are unlocked. When I submit my ticket, I will claim credit for the T3 and T4 ($112) goals. I will wait a day, to give time for it to credit normally before sending a ticket.
Tier 4 Mage Unit for the Elves
I ran out of speedups and had to keep chasing all the weekly events to get small boosts and Gems to spend on speed ups in the Goblin Merchant, Alliance Store, and the VIP store.
I maxed out the Titans Legacy pack at level 80, which unlocked a perpetual reward that cycles between speed boosts and Gold Keys.
Titan’s Legacy
Titan’s Legacy is a season long growth pack not included in the required purchases for this offer. It has a free tier and a premium tier for $4.99.
I decided to spend the extra money because it included many speed up items and would be active for 60 days, more than covering the time I would need to finish the offer.
Day 23: I managed to upgrade the citadel to a metropolis (level 21), this unlocked several rewards from the Growth pack, Titan’s Legacy, the Great Halls event, and construction goal rewards. Over 10k gems were included and also several days worth of upgrade speedups.
HQ Upgrade from 20 to 21 (8 days 11 hours)
I forgot to check which researches would be needed to get the Tier 4 troops and so I am behind on the research. There is maybe a months worth of upgrades I still need to finish, so I won’t likely get to T4. In hindsight I should have been researching those items up to this point weeks ago.
Around a months worth of speedups were needed to clear the research for T4 troops.
Day 16: I’ve reach 2M Power and have started the Citadel 19 upgrade (5d 8hrs). I quit CS alliance and joined Gaia after a lot of toxic behavior by leadership. I’m not the first it seems; I’ve found a bunch of comrades with similar experiences. I got to join and complete an Elite ROC raid. Nice prizes and bounties.
Day 10: I messed up. I misunderstood the VIP levels and I was already at 7 when i spent an additional 17.5k Gems to upgrade it.
The Honor chest was $19.99. I had read it was good to get to VIP 8, but I think I would have preferred to use those Gems on resources or speed ups.
Reimbursement on the Honor chest was $25, so a $6 profit. I hit the 1.5M Power goal. Level 3 Troops still hasn’t credited.
Day 6: Power is 1.2M currently, I should have T3 Troops ($12) in the next 2 days. That should put me above 1.5M ($5) for the goal, I need 4k more Gems to reach VIP 7 to get the Honor chest ($25).
Day 4: Closing in on 1M power now. It looks like the VIP 7 honor exclusive will be around $25, considering the increase in cost from ranks 4-6. My Alliance mates have posted several good guides that I have included here. Best Pet, Commander Pairings, and HQ Requirements.
Day 3: I went ahead and made two additional purchases. I bought a 99 cent pop up deal and the 9.99 Insight Rune for Titans Legacy. Unfortunately, these purchases did not count towards the Purchase Payback, so I did not get more Velyn tokens. I am up to VIP 6 now.
Day 2: I am on day 2, with 380k Power. The 1M power objective is unlikely. I’ve spent $20 and received $19 in reimbursement. I still need to buy the VIP7 chest, but that provides $25 in reimbursement. My goal will be 3M power and Tier 3 Troops.

Strategy
Some players, on Reddit, report being only able to reach 5M power after 30 days of game play and heavy spending, while others have said they reached 1M+ in 3-4 days.
Reaching 20 Million Power in Call of Dragons involves massive troop training (especially T5), completing all research at the College of Order, upgrading buildings to high rank (Level 25), leveling heroes, acquiring War Pets, and maximizing speed-ups and resources.
This was my status sheet on day 26 of play, having managed to unlock T4 troops in research, but not having converted all my units.
With full conversion, my power level would have been 4,012,136.
Tip: New players are encouraged to build out Magic Heroes and Units or Marksmen for ranged DPS. They can be used to support melee armies in your alliance, while also being easier to maneuver away from combat if you are targeted. The Fire/Frost legendary heroes are easily acquired.
Just focus on a primary unit type for combat and use the Arms Exchange feature in Events to swap other units types for your primary. This way you can produce all unit types and then convert them into your primary.
I had 100k mage units on Day 10, and 37k Work Elks. I later swapped 15k Mages to Infantry to help the Alliance for some challenges.
The only exception to this are the Work Elks. Keep them for gathering.
Armies are limited to a single unit type and will typically synergize with the abilities of the hero and deputy hero. Multiple armies can be deployed in unison covering each type (infantry, archer, tank, cavalry).
Cavalry units don’t become become available until Sanctuary level 10. They can however be gained earlier by trading with Camps (Work Elk). These initial cavalry units are meant for gathering and have a high load capacity.
In the event panel, you may swap units of the same tier. I swapped my infantry/tank units for the Tier 1 Cavalry to increase my gathering efficiency.
Key Strategies for High Power Growth
Troop Training: Train high-tier troops (T4 & T5) for massive power gains; T5 troops give 100 points in events like Strongest Lord.
Research: Finish all research in your College of Order as quickly as possible, as this adds significant power.
Building Upgrades: Upgrade every building in your city to level 25 for substantial power boosts.
Heroes & Pets: Level up your heroes and acquire powerful War Pets.
Resource Management: Use speed-ups and resources efficiently to accelerate all these processes.
This video goes over all of the methods for increasing your power rating.
Offer Spending
Some of the goals require a purchase, which may be a good choice given the limited 30 day offer terms.
The Honor Exclusive may be a bit costly. Typically, high VIP levels in mobile games is one of the most lucrative avenues for monetization.
At each rank of Honor, you are prompted to purchase an exclusive pack that includes Liliya’s Tokens. This is the method to upgrade the Legendary starter hero from the First Purchase.

Any remaining levels may be acquired through the extra worker and growth fund purchases.
Purchasing the extra worker will fulfill the requirements of “Purchase Payback” which provides an additional legendary hero (Velyn), and 20 Keys to summon more heroes.

Power Levels
Power comes from Buildings, Heroes, Pets, Artifacts, and Research. Your basic recruited hero and their equipped pet and artifact will provide a moderate amount of power.
The Citadel provides 91,451 Power at level 16.
Resource Buildings are worth 10,181 at level 16 (4 each = 162,256).
Tier 5 troops are worth 10 Power each (2M Tier 5 = 20M Power).
At high ranks (4 Stars), a legendary hero may provide a power score around 100k. It will would likely be difficult to gain such powerful heroes in just 30-days. Blue heroes were around 30-40k power at level 30s and 4 stars.
While a building at max level can provide around 725k power, we will not be reaching those levels in the course of this offers timeframe.
Our first mission will be to complete the level 8 town upgrade on the first day. This can be achieved by using some of the free resources and speed up items new players receive.
On the first day we can also buy the extra worker and the growth pack to clear both of those objectives.
Strategy 1 (Long-term): Save your gems for purchasing VIP points. At VIP level 8, we get a permanent 2nd research slot which will speed up our power gain.
Strategy 2 (Short-term): Gems should be used to exchange for Gold Keys. In the early game the fastest way to reach 1M power by day 3 is to summon heroes.
Upgrading the castle from 8 (town) to 16 (citadel) takes 385 hours or 16 days. You will need 6,072,100 Gold and Wood, and 2,507,790 Stone to complete the upgrades to the main building alone.
There will be additional resource requirements to upgrade pre-requisite structures. Expect to have all other buildings upgraded to level 15.
Buildings do not provide much power until they reach level 21. At levels 20+ buildings provide 30-50k power each when fully upgraded.
Using Gems
Farming Gems
Farming gems can be easy or hard, based on how many players are on your server.
After you learn Gem Prospecting in Internal Affairs, you can send heroes to gather gems. But with many players, competition can be tough.
New players should focus on permanent technologies and other resources first, and start gathering gems once they reach max technology and city hall levels.
Events and Quests
Many events and quests provide gems as rewards. To gather gems over time, it’s important to complete as many of these as possible.
Examples include special events, NPC battles, and daily quests. Joining a whale alliance, where spenders buy bundles and give out free chests with opportunities to win gems, can also help.
Buying Packs
Spending real money on packs usually includes gems. Bundles like Growth Fund, Monthly Pack, and first purchases in the Gem Market can give you many gems. Growth Fund is especially good as it offers a large number of gems, but you need to reach upgrade milestones to receive the rewards.

Guide to Creating a Farm Account
by (GAIA) Atenea.
What is a farm account?
A farm account is a secondary account whose main purpose is to produce resources (wood, gold, mana, and food) to directly support your main account.
1️⃣ Creating the farm account Create a new account from the Settings → Character management. Choose the same kingdom where your main account is located. Try to join a nearby alliance, preferably one located in your same region.
2️⃣ Faction choice The best faction for a farm account is: 🏹 League of Order (Humans) Balanced development. Efficient buildings. Ideal for accounts focused exclusively on economy and gathering.
3️⃣ City development (priority) Upgrade only what is strictly necessary to produce resources. Key buildings 🏛️ City Hall 🌲 Lumber Mills 🌾 Farms 🪙 Gold Mines 🔮 Mana buildings Research Prioritize only Economy and Gathering research. Avoid military or defensive research.
4️⃣ Recommended commanders Use gathering commanders only: 🔹 Invest only in Gathering and Economy talents. 🔹 Do not spend experience on combat commanders.
5️⃣ Proper troop usage Train only the troops needed for gathering. Keep low-tier troops. Do not develop advanced military structures.
6️⃣ Efficient gathering Keep your marches always gathering. Take advantage of resource nodes within alliance territory. Use gathering boosts only if they are free.
7️⃣ Protecting the farm account Place the city inside alliance territory. In case of conflict: Withdraw troops from nodes. Avoid confrontations. Prioritize not losing troops.
8️⃣ Resource transfer To transfer resources to your main account: Both accounts must be in the same alliance. Use the Alliance Bazaar to transfer resources safely.

Heroes
Call of Dragons was developed by the same company as Rise of Kingdoms and the heroes in both games are essentially the same. The combat system is also the same.
You will have a primary hero that leads the army and a deputy hero that provides Skill (attack) based bonuses. The deputy hero does not lend their talents to the fight, only their skill effects.
Make sure you save the Blue Tokens to improve the skills of your lower tier heroes. New skills unlock every 10 levels.
Upgrade Legendary heroes first to improve your battle efficiency, but afterwards upgrade the blue heroes. They can provide around 70k Power each with maxed out skills and artifacts equipped.
Hero Specialties
Each hero has 3 specialties which may include:
Gather
Support
Overall
Marksman
Peacekeeping
Precision
Magic
Skills
Fighters
Combat Heroes excel at PvE and PvP combat. Their skills deal direct damage to foes and include a finisher in most cases.
Gatherers
These economic heroes get a bonus to gathering specific resources and these bonuses can be improved upon in the Talent Tree.
Heroes with the Gather specialty, will have a skill that improves gathering speed in general and also boosts a specific resource gathering speed.
For example, Pan’s Tier 2 Skill, “Secret of the Trees,” provides the following bonuses when upgraded.

Campaigns
Expeditions
This is the idle reward portion of the game. It includes a mini auto grid-battler system with room for 6×6 fights.
Each squad can have two heroes, a pet, and a single unit type. The units should complement the heroes being deployed.
At mission 11, players can activate the double speed option. At mission 30, the multi-battle option can be toggled, which automates the expedition. It will keep fighting until you lose a battle.
The chest on the main screen can be tapped to claim current accumulated rewards which include gold, wood, stone, exp tomes, and hero tokens.
Expeditions are independent of world map battles and can be completed while heroes are out gathering or fighting.
Behemoth Trials
This is a mini battle campaign trail with manually controlled battles. Some trails use tactics and will require some thought on how to advance.
After clearing a Main Stage, you will receive 1-3 star rating, along with corresponding Loot bonuses. You will receive rewards for clearing a Main Stage for the first time.
In Main Stages, you will use your own Heroes, combat units and buff effects. In the Side Stages you are only able to use preset Heroes, combat units and buff effects.
The higher your Loot bonus and the longer you wait, the more Loot you will receive (idle rewards). Loot will accumulate for up to 24 hours, so remember to claim it in time.
The first time you beat Main Stage 5, you will unlock the Auto-Battle feature. Auto-Battle cannot be used in Escort, Tower Defense, Boss, or Side Stages.
The first time you beat Main Stage 10, you will unlock the Multi-Battle feature. Multi-Battle cannot be used in Escort, Tower Defense, Boss, or Side Stages.
During Behemoth Trials, feel free to allocate your Legions as you please, as they will not die or have their numbers reduced. Trial Store items will be refreshed at midnight each day.
Trial Coins can be used at the Trials Store to buy various Hero Tokens and items.
Tournament of Champions
This is an Arena for PvP. You can create a team of up to 5 legions (HQ dependent) and battle other players lineups.
First start by setting a defense team to handle opposing attacks and then create an offense team. You get 3 attempts each day to battle other players and can spend Gems for extra attempts.
Reaching higher tiers will provide rewards.
Roots of War
Roots of War Guide
This is a mini map battle with set regions to fight over. The goal is to collect energy from the map by gathering resources.
Special mana stones will spawn at set intervals. A team member will pick it up and then walk slowly to a central drop off location. Team members will need to escort the caravan to the location to prevent attacks by the opposing team.
If your team does not have a sufficient number of players present, you can get blocked in by a strong enemy and prevented from accessing the map for the duration of the event.
25x 60-Minute Training Speedup, and 10x Level 3 Choice Resource Chest.
Wall Map
The floating compass above the city wall takes you to the storyline game. This works similar to the expedition but requires you to navigate the heroes on a mini-map and battle enemies in real-time.
You can use any of the heroes you have unlocked and raising their levels will improve the success rate for these missions.
Missions are gated by the level of your Sanctuary (Citadel).
The Best Pet for your Hero
Since War Pets unlocking, wanted to share this guide to help you choose the best pet for each legion.
Mages
Recommended pet: Sapphire Faedrake
Reasoning: The Sapphire Faedrake’s spell fires a large beam that hits the target and nearby legions. Its secondary skill (available in the shop) can increase damage output by up to 40% with one star. Overall, this is the most efficient pet for mages.
Stat priorities: Intelligence and Luck
Infantry
Recommended pet: ice bear & orange bear
Reasoning: The Ice Bear is good because it offers a shield and damage when it breaks, which can be combined with Eliana or Madeline. The orange bear is good because it offers healing and sustainability, making it good with Garwood and mu hsiang . Sand Lizards might be better for mages because they heal per second, which is good for continuous DPS and not for tanks.
Marksmen
Recommended pets: Shadow Manticore, Snowpeak Roc, Berserk Faedrake, or Golden Roc
Reasoning: The Snowpeak Roc’s talent skill works with marksmen but only when paired with Nico or an awakened Kinnara.
Stat priorities: Strength, Agility, and Luck
Cavalry
Recommended pet: Golden Roc
Reasoning: The Golden Roc’s passive skill provides rage accumulation and additional damage once rage is active. It synergizes perfectly with Emrys and Bakshi, both of whom benefit from rage gain, amplifying overall damage. Combined with defense ignore, physical damage, and HP ignore effects, this setup becomes extremely powerful.
Stat priorities: Strength, Agility, and Luck
Commander Pairings
In this decree, the best hero pairings are listed. Feel free to do your own research as well on google.
Note: An “x” in the number of the skill means it doesn’t matter since the skill is not relevant to the open field.
Tip: Pressing the Lock button when viewing skills will allow you to select which skills to allow to be leveled up. Otherwise, point distribution will be random.

Beast Battles
I missed the bear fight, but I did take part in the Thunder Roc normal battle. I died in the water during the first fight, but survived during the second normal battle. I did not have time to join the Elite Roc fight.
Different time zones were a difficulty in this game. Most players were 5-9 hours away.
Thunder Roc
Thunder Roc StatsThunder Roc Skills
The strategy uses two teams Sun and Moon. Use Discord for voice chat and party management (alliance chat if you can’t use Discord).
Members will send their best legion to participate in the battle. For Normal Roc, T2 and T3 units are fine. But for Elite Roc, only T3’s should be used and you want a minimum of 45k units.
Teams are divided evenly between Sun and Moon with designated Tanks and DPS members. The Roc battle area is a circle divided by land paths in a quadrant.
The Roc will target different quadrants during the fight.
During the fight, if your legion gets targeted by the Red ball (Roc’s attack), your screen will flash red. When this happens, walk your legion to the middle. When the Red ball touches the water, it will become electrified and do heavy damage to any legions present in the targeted quadrant.
Multiple legions may be wiped out if players are not properly coordinated.
During the fight, Dispel stones will appear that will remove the shock from the water, heal members legions, and stun the bird. For the Normal Roc, 8 players are needed to activate the stone. In Elite Roc, 13 members must activate the stone.
After the Roc has been stunned, players can safely attack it.
Tank role during the raid: Tanks will need to keep the Roc in the center of the field. Don’t let it get into the puddles of water. It the Roc does its charge in the water, it will kill half of the people in that puddle.
Multiple rounds of avoiding the Red ball, running from shock water, activating dispel stones, and attacking the Roc will occur. After the Roc has been defeated, players will purify it by targeting the body.
Alliance-wide rewards for Thunder Roc
Individual rewards are issued for the top 5 members who deal the most damage during the fight. Alliance-wide rewards are issued regardless of member participation in the event.
Got a new Build & Battle title available through Swagbucks for $61.25 in total rewards. (This is a low reward. Best wait until it doubles or triples in value).
We do have an advantage though. This title is actually from the same developer as Puzzles and Conquest, Survival, and Chaos.
Level 30 is the end game and we are not likely to reach that stage within the 30-day time limit on this offer. The level 26 stage may be possible, but will likely require the spending objectives to be completed.
It is a play on the post-apocalyptic, State of Survival style games but instead of zombies, you have these Dinosaurs with robotic parts. It looks like someone in development really liked Transformers: Beast Wars.
There are two purchases required for the full prize. The current valuation for this offer is low, and it would probably be better to wait for a better reward tier list. The final two goals are $30 and the purchases are $20, so you will only get $11.25 from this offer if you don’t spend money on it.
So we know what to expect to some degree.
Offer Terms
Must be a new user of the app to earn SB.
Reach all levels listed below within 30 days of installation to earn Up to 6,125 SB.
There are AI bots actively trying to scam players into stopping this game. This is discussed on both the Facebook and Discord channels for the game. Some of the Alliance Leaders you encounter in the game will be bots.
If your Alliance leader says you need to add them on Discord to stay in the Alliance, this is a scam. The bot will send you a faked screenshot of server maintenance taking 15 days to complete. It will then try to get you to play a different game. The bot uses AI and may seem like a real person.
Strategy
We have limited time to reach our goal, so we will want to stock up on resources and speed boosts. You can find these items in the Shop and other menus throughout the game.
Resources can be gathered by your troops on the World Map or by attacking other players. It may be a good idea to get some 8-hr Shields for the Killing event that usually takes place in these games.
You can spend Diamonds (premium currency) to buy resources for cheap in the VIP shop. I saved my first initial 8,000 Diamonds and used them to unlock the Advanced Supply Pack. This will pay me back my Diamonds over a week and I get various other items as a bonus.
I used maybe 4,000 Diamonds to upgrade my VIP rank to 2 for the extra economic bonuses and access to additional VIP Shop items. I was able to buy some VIP Points in the Alliance Shop.
Unfortunately, you don’t get VIP time extension items without paying money or Diamonds. There is a free boost, so you will have maybe 3 days of VIP.
I would suggest saving up to get the 30 days of VIP.

2nd Builder: To unlock the second building queue you can either make a purchase in the shop for 4.99 USD or you can spend Diamonds to “rent” the extra slot for 48 hours for 1,200 Diamonds.
Alliances
As with any multiplayer game, you will benefit from joining an Alliance and taking part in group activities. You can get some construction timer discounts from fellow members as well as free items from everyone completing daily tasks. In addition, there are many Alliance-based events to take part in.
The Alliance Glory tab will include some prizes that become available as your members complete their goals. Gold buttons on your taskbar (bottom-right) are shortcuts to Alliance functions such as Help, Building, and Battles.
Player
In addition to setting your Avatar image, you can change your character model. This is purely ascetic and will not affect gameplay. In the Settings panel, you can disable notifications, enter game codes, and access your game achievements.
Stamina: Your bar will display as full at 200 points of Stamina. Each day you can get a refill of 80 points from the Airship building. There is no maximum or cap on the amount of Stamina you can accrue. The highest amount of Stamina I reached was 620 points.
Commander Gear: At HQ level 22 you gain access to crafting and equipping gear for your commander. Six pieces of gear can be made and equipped. They boost the stats of your combat troops.
Heroes
Unlike the other games in this genre, we do not have people as heroes, instead we get mecha dinosaurs. The game uses a merging mechanic to upgrade the dinos to higher tiers (colors). You will mostly capture dinosaurs on the world map and then use the copies to upgrade your main unit.
Dinosaurs have both Exploratory and Military bonuses that will impact your city and armies. These can be upgraded with Skill Manuals.
Capturing is always a success up through level 7 beasts, but starting at level 8 you will need to use a “net” item with a varying success rate. These can be collected by completing your Daily Tasks. Level 8 and higher beasts are likely to be Blue or Purple rarity.
Tip: The Sickleclaw has a Passive ability that increases construction speed. At max rank, you get 15% off. You will want to hunt the Sickleclaw to get extra copies for upgrading.
Pyodra can increase Research speed by a maximum of 20%.
Caesar is only available in Advanced Hunt or through purchases. You may find Caesar on the World Map, however capturing it requires a Beast Lab at level 20.
Upgrading Dinosaurs
The process is pretty straightforward. Your dinosaurs start as Green and you will need three (3) additional green copies to upgrade the dino to Blue. Once you hit Blue you just need an extra Blue to make a Purple. To upgrade a Purple, you need four (4) more Purple copies.
This will get you your first Orange dinosaur. My first orange beast was the Dune Crawler. An early game event gives you a bunch of Purple copies.
CORRECTION: After 9 Orange pips, the cost increases to 2 Orange copies per pip, for a total cost of 15 Orange copies to reach Red.

HQ Upgrade Requirements
I skipped the Tutorial levels for the following chart. I forgot to screenshot some levels. My building time numbers may differ some from yours based on timer reductions from bonuses.
A player in chat lamented that the upgrade time from HQ 22 to 23 was almost 8 days!
Note: I was not scrolling down on the upgrade screen, so the list is missing the Oil amounts for levels 12 through 19.
My construction Speed bonuses increased over time, and I received a 50% boost at level 22. This took 3.5 days off the timer.

HQ Leveling Requirements (up to Level 23)
The Headquarters Level-Up Pack will display on-screen after finishing the HQ 12 upgrade. If you close the window, you can reopen it by tapping the countdown timer on the right side of the screen just below the Events button.
The Deluxe First Top-Up is priced at $19.99, but we only get back $15. I decided not to buy it.
Town Layout
I found another player using this layout, so I did my best to copy the design. It is much easier to upgrade the resource buildings with this layout.
Airship
You can collect 80 Stamina points from the Airship facility each day. Additionally, the facility will provide 5-minute speedups periodically throughout the day. I placed it near the center of my base to make it easier to select and see.
Each day you may also claim a Secret Crate bonus by entering the correct code. The Airship should give you the code in the dialog, but this is not always noticed. Your best option is to check the World Chat log to find the code or ask other players in your Alliance.
Codes
You can find codes for the game both on the official Facebook page and their Discord server. There are links to both in-game.
To enter them just tap on your Avatar and then go to Settings and “Gift Code.”
If you are playing on iOS, you will need to use their code redemption website since the Apple Store no longer allows apps to include code redemption options in-game.
The following codes were active when I started playing (July 2024).

The rewards can be useful when completing offers. I know for Sea of Conquest the Facebook rewards came in really handy near the end of that offer.
Bugs
There are a few UI bugs, most notably that the Military and Exploratory categories are backward. You’ll also notice the chat window does not separate the text, so you will see World Chat and Alliance Chat on the same screen.
Final Result
I was partway through the upgrade to HQ level 23 when the offer expired. I did not make any purchases. I earned a total of 11.25 USD for my time. Not really worth the 30 days I spent working on the offer but perhaps you will do better or maybe they will raise the reward.
Upgrading the Flagship is how you will complete the offer objectives. The Flagship is the equivalent of the Castle or Headquarters in other games.
I think the best strategy is to max out your Flagships’ Cargo space and Sailing speed by building Storage and Oarsmen Quarters (+5% Speed). Then find the most lucrative Auto-Trade route, and keep your ship running 24/7. You can send your Heroes to collect resources for hours at a time.
I installed the game on March 4th and finished two objectives. After completing the 2nd objective, I purchased the $9.99 Artisan pack that includes a 3rd builder queue.
As you can see below, I received reimbursement for my purchase. On MyPoints, the valuation is generally 150 points = 1 USD. So, the 2,125 pts were actually worth $14.17.
Starting with the 3rd objective, I did receive early credit before reaching the goal. The level 14 reward went pending upon reaching level 13.
Note: I only made it to 19. After that, the build times on facilities increased to 3-4 days, and I ran out of time. I received 8,194 points or 54 USD from this offer.
Intro
This one is a bit more involving compared to other Build and Battle titles like State of Survival or West Game. Unlike the other games, your ship is the HQ and it’s mobile, so you can move around the map as needed to gather resources and grind out levels.
The first two objectives are easy to clear on the first day. It starts getting slow to upgrade your facilities after level 8. The upgrade time went from 1 hour to 8 hours, a big jump up.
Probably the first thing you should do is get all of your Storage Rooms built and upgraded to level 3. In the early game, you have very little Cargo space for carrying plunder. This can limit your ability to gather enough Gold to upgrade your ship(s).
I’ll continue to update this post as I progress…
Player
You will have a player avatar and character levels associated with your account. You gain EXP from fighting pirates and completing missions.
Your Hero’s maximum levels are limited by the players’ level. The heroes get EXP from items. Hero skills can be upgraded with items. Land battles, gathering resources, and crewing ships are the different functions in which you will deploy your heroes.
Your ship’s Hit Points are refilled by resupplying the ship with crewmen from the reserves.

Summon Rates
Your heroes can be equipped on your ships to improve their stats and fighting ability. Importantly, the Constitution value of heroes equipped to your Flagship will increase its Hit Points.
Most guides suggest placing Armstrong in the Gunner position, Ahab as Captain, and Madame Lulu as the First Mate.
The number of heroes you can equip for your ship will depend on its level. You can also place heroes on your support ships.

Ship Upgrades
In addition to your Flagship, your fleet may encompass 4 extra smaller ships. These slots become available as you level up your Flagship. You will receive two extra ships for free, and one can be unlocked by completing the first Pirate Kings Trail event.
When you craft a ship there, you have a chance for it to be critical and get an Epic or Legendary result. All stats are random, and it is possible to get a terrible ship. The same is true of your ship equipment.
Support Ships
Support ships can be separated from the fleet by pressing and holding their icons and then dragging them to an empty spot on the water. This will disengage the ship from your fleet.
This is useful for when you want to place a boat to guard a Sentry Tower or if you want to hunt monsters with your Gang, but still be able to leave your Flagship in Auto-Trading mode.
After my Support ships reached level 13, I stopped upgrading them to save Gold. The Flagship upgrade costs got so high that I didn’t feel comfortable spending the resources on the little Support ships.
Equipment
Your character does not equip gear, but you can equip the ships in your fleet with 4 different items (Cannon, Sail, Helm, and Figurehead). I suggest waiting until you get Lvl 12Legendary gear before you enhance the equipment.
You can exchange tokens for random Legendary Ship Parts in the Cartographer’s Corner.
Each day, you can kill Sea Monsters 5 times to get rewards. The level 12 Krakens can drop Legendary equipment.
The stats on equipment are random, and it is possible to find a Rare/Epic item with better stats than a Legendary of the same type. You want to get stats in Whole Numbers and avoid the ones that give a Percentage (%) bonus.
So hold onto your gear and compare the pieces before deciding which ones to dismantle. When you dismantle the equipment, you will receive Starlight Shards that can be used to enhance your gear.
Sails: You can use dyes, obtained from your Gang, to color your ships’ sails for a little customization. The paint does not provide a bonus on its own and is only cosmetic in nature. However, you can add the logo of one of the Trading Guilds to your sails, and this will provide extra reputation points whenever you battle other ships on the map.
Infamy
Killing Players, looting resources, and plundering Merchant Ships will accrue Infamy. The higher the Infamy Level, the more penalties you will receive. At the maximum level, you will not receive any resources from attacking other ships.
PvE
Attacking Merchant Ships and Smuggler Ships will build up your Infamy rather quickly. They are a good source of cooking and brewing items, but there is some risk of getting too much infamy.
PvP
The game employs Bounties for players with any Infamy points. The player who sinks a bounty will receive a gold reward. You can tap on the Red Skull icon on your hot bar to view your Infamy level and the bounties associated with each level.
Players with a bounty are considered to be fair game for killing, regardless of whether an Alliance or Truce is in effect.
Artifacts (Triggered Abilities)
Eye
This is an instant teleport option that can be used to quickly move to an Ally or a Port. This is good for helping out friends being attacked in PvP or for helping to clear monsters when they are on the other side of the map. There are 5 uses each day.
Horn
The horn will temporarily speed up your ship and allow you to cut down on transit time. This will refill charges every 15 minutes, and the ability has a 15-second cooldown between uses.
Compass
The compass has two functions. First, it can be used to find Treasure from maps. The treasure will be a bunch of trading goods that can be sold for a pretty penny. You get 20 uses of the compass each day (refills over time).
Secondly, the compass can be used to reveal the land at hidden ports. Afterward, you may clear each of the Mist Incidents for the Port by checking all of the Landward Quests and the Maritime Incidents.
You may either use a single compass to clear the fog and then manually clear each incident, or you may spend 3 compasses to automatically clear the island and receive all rewards. The automatic method does allow you to clear distant ports you have not yet visited.
Once all ports on the map are 100% cleared, the entire sea area you are in will be cleared of Fog.
Hourglass
This tool will allow you to skip ahead 2 hours’ worth of game time. It is useful when you have lots of Food or Drinks queued up and for construction projects. It can be used once every 12 hours.
Exploring the Map
When you visit a port for the first time, you may tap on the compass icon on the island to “make acquaintance” with the port. This will reveal a large portion of the mist from the map and will allow you to complete any Mist Incidents on that island.
You can also complete Mist Incidents on the water if you come across them while exploring, as long as they are connected to a port. However, for Incidents that are physically inaccessible but still visible, you cannot clear them.
Clearing Incidents will reward you with resources and other goods. Completing all Incidents available at the port will give additional rewards.
Plunder
Plunder and Search will reward regular items while Worship will provide a permanent stat bonus that can stack the more Temples you visit in the Sea.
Salvage
For the Salvage Incident, there is a simple trick to get all gold barrels for a perfect run. Just make sure to tap the screen as the gold barrel reaches the marked island in the picture.
Worship
You may unlock a permanent bonus to your stats by visiting Worship sites. Each site features a particular pan-Mesoamerican deity that will bestow a % bonus once all torches have been lit.
Fishing, Cooking, Brewing
You can use the Fishing function from anywhere; however, schools of fish will drop specific fish at a higher rate.
Epic (Purple) and Legendary (Orange) fish will only show when a bar appears on the left side of the screen during fishing. You have to time the indicator to land in the blue bar area to catch the fish.
Cooking
A complete list of Food/Drink recipes can be found below. The Distillery works the same as the Galley for cooking food. Just throw in the ingredients to see what you can make. Once you complete a recipe for the first time, you can collect Emeralds from the catalog.
The Quick Cook/Brew function can be used to craft food from known recipes.
Food crafted in the Galley is also used for the Pirate Revel Event, which rewards players with 2.6 million gold for full completion.
Galley Recipes (Food)
There are multiple combinations that all give the same result. To save on space and sanity, this list will only include the most basic of combinations from my own list of recipes. Your list may vary depending on the various combos you make, but it is all relative.

Sea of Conquest: Complete Galley Recipe List
Distillery
The interface for the Distillery is the same as the Galley. You can combine fruits and water to craft beverages in different tiers.
I was unable to craft any legendary brews in the first ocean area. I believe you will need special ingredients that either come from other (internal) areas or from Merchant ships.
The Pirate Revel event does include a list of beverages that will be needed to get all the rewards.
Distillery Recipes (Drinks)
There are multiple combinations that all give the same result. The descriptive text of each drink can be seen as tips on which ingredients you should use to craft the drink.

Sea of Conquest: Complete Distillery Recipe List
Mess Hall
Any food items that have been crafted may then be sold in the Mess Hall on board your Flagship. Alternatively, you may save the food to supply your ship.
Gold generated in this way doesn’t earn much unless you are selling Legendary Dishes. Also, keep in mind that you cannot sell Food immediately using the Mess Hall.
The cabin can only process sales in a limited number of sales each day. Upgrading the Mess Hall will improve its function. You may collect your current earnings by tapping on the green icon in the Mess Hall cabin. This source of Gold comes in stacks of 50.
Items
Like most mobile games, they all have different names for the same items used in-game.
Grants 10,000 Reputation points with the selected Guild.
Smuggling Warrant
Use it to purchase goods in the Black Market.
Retrofitting Tools
Helps allocate storage space for the Cargo Hold and Supplies Hold even at sea.
Advanced Ship Part Chest
Select a specific type of Ship Part. 100% chance of level 16-20 Legendary tier items.
Item List
Trials
This is the standard AFK rewards campaign. It is mostly played using your Heroes on the Land, but there is a ship battle option. The ship battle cannot be completed while you are auto-trading, but the land battles can be.
The AFK rewards include EXP for your Heroes and Wood/Iron for construction and upgrades. Completing stages will reward Echo Conch and other items.
Earning Gold
Exchange: The Rogues Rumble PvP fights reward tokens that can be swapped for Gold and other items. You can access the challenge by tapping on your Avatar.
A recent update improved the UI and added ship battles as an option. The rewards were significantly boosted, and new items have been added to the exchange.
Trading (Manual): You can purchase a hold full of goods and sail to a different port to sell them. You will get a good price if the goods being sold are different from those available on the island. The further you have to travel, the greater the earnings per trip. Additionally, as you unlock higher Tiers of Relations with the various NPC Guilds, you will get access to higher-quality goods for trading.
Combat: When you pick up loot from pirates or from Treasure stashes, you can sell it at a port.
Auto–Trader: In the trading interface, there is an option to enable automatic trading. This is a good option when you are going to log out. It can take 1-2 hours to complete a 50-stop trading route. The 100-stop option is pay-to-play only.
Smuggler Tickets: When you complete Daily Tasks, you will receive these tickets, which can be used at Black markets to get Goods for free. You can then sail to a distant port and sell them for a big profit.
Remember, the further you travel away from the purchasing port, the larger the profits will be when you sell the Goods.
Other sources of Gold are completing missions on islands, player quests, fighting pirates, attacking merchant ships, and selling unwanted items. Attacking Smuggler ships is a great way to pick up some extra cash. These ships carry the same Goods you find in the Black Markets.
Resources can be gathered by your heroes even if you are not docked at the port. Just select the resource site and send your heroes to liberate the facility. They will stay and mine the resources until it is empty. Resource sites will go on cooldown for a while before being usable again.
Gangs
These are SoCs equivalent to an Alliance. You can make daily Donations, speed up research or construction, and complete tasks to earn tokens that can be exchanged on the market for rewards.
As the game progresses, your Gang will start capturing territory by attacking the low-level ports around the outer edges of the map. After capturing a port, your Gang can get Sentry Towers. You will receive rewards for helping your Gang capture territory.
The goal is to capture Sentry Towers in a line from your starting port, and on to a level 2 port, then a level 3 port, and finally to the Gates into the Inner Ocean area.
There are limits to how many Sentry Towers can be held by the Gang at any given time. Either the Leader or any R4 Gang member may abandon a Sentry Tower to make room for new ones to be captured.
Making alliances with other Gangs is the preferred way to navigate the early game. I suggest joining the biggest Gang in your corner of the sea and helping them to stay in the top ranking. An active Gang will generate a steady flow of resources from regular activities as well as from other players purchasing Premium content.
Treasure of the Tides
This function can be found in the Daily Tasks panel at the top of the screen. Once the window is open, tap on the calendar page marked “7.” The tasks shown here will be completed through normal gameplay, and at the end of the week, you will receive rewards depending on how high your chest is. Level 20 is the maximum and will provide:
40 Emeralds, 1 Hymn Conch, 2 Echo Conch, 25Single Piece Vol. IV, 6x 30min Construction Speedup, and 6x Stargazing Speedup.
Squad Raids
This is a big sea monster battle against a raid boss (Kraken). You can take a team of 4 players into a 20-minute-long fight that comes in 3 different difficulty levels. If you are beaten, you can revive and resupply before heading back to the fight.
I would advise you to not use the automatic matching system. if a player is AFK, this will prevent your group from being able to enter the fight, and in Matching mode, there is no way to remove the AFK player from the party.
You can challenge each difficulty level up to 3 times per day for rewards. After the 3rd fight at a difficulty level, you can continue to raid, but you will only receive Honor points. There is a Leaderboard that tracks how fast your team beats the boss.
Completion Difficulty
Monster Lair Rewards

Hard
30 Emerald, 1 Random Ship Part, 3 Royal Cigar, 10 Starlight Shard
This new function can be found by tapping on your Avatar on the top left of the screen.
There will be a set of missions that you can send your heroes out to complete. The missions each have different requirements to dispatch a team.
The rewards can include Speed Up items, so I highly recommend doing these.

Sailboat Racing Event
Showdown of Gangs
Showdown of Gangs: This is the big PvP battle among the top Gangs on your server. It is worth watching the battle in real-time as the game will randomly reward lucky viewers with the Echo Conch and Golden Conch.
Also, betting can be quite lucrative. Absolute power doesn’t necessarily guarantee victory. The way the tiered battle is set up, it is possible to waste heavy hitters in the early stages and lose out in further rounds.
In my Gangs’ case, our power level was 1-2 million points lower than our opponents, and the provided odds were quite against us; however, we managed to beat the opposition and won many coins on the bet.
I was able to swap my coins in the Parlor for 2.75 million Gold. I should mention, though, that I had been buying up coins before the event became available. The Parlor exchange panel is available even when the event is not active.
Azure Promise
Azure Promise: This beginner event is available for everyone. Login for 8 consecutive days to claim rewards. Epic hero Will is available on the 2nd day.
Pirate Kings Trail
Week 1Week 2
Pirate King’s Trail: This is a recurring event lasting 7 days that rewards players with the Crimson Sentinel (Epic Ship) and Madame Lulu (Healer) during the first week.
Power Rush
Power Rush: Be the strongest pirate o’ the seas! Raise your Power rating to the set levels to receive a reward.
Undead Revenge
Undead Revenge: Ghost ships will spawn on the world map. Just attack them to get points for the event. Return to the event page to collect your rewards based on how much total damage you managed during the combat phase. The ships will spawn every 2 hours or so, and your cumulative damage will count towards the final reward.
Pirate Revel
Pirate Revel: You can reap handsome rewards if you can serve all the orders they want by the recipes before the countdown ends. If you fail to serve all the orders, the relevant rewards will be delivered, given the orders you’ve fulfilled, and the rewards will be delivered via Mail. This event rewards 2.6 million Gold for a full completion.

Sea Voyage Rewards
Lord of the Seas
Lord of the Seas: This is a weekly event that includes a “killing” period for PvP battles. Each day features a different task: Collecting Gold, upgrading Cabins, recruiting Heroes, completing Star Gazing, and other tasks.
Grand Odyssey (Server Story)
Grand Odyssey: This is the server event, and it is tied to the age of the world you are playing on. You can check the rewards in-game.
After 10 days of gameplay, the Grand Odyssey story advanced to chapter 13, and the gates into the central seas opened. After this occurred, my Gang started getting hit by all the Whales (big spenders). We struggled initially, but did manage to capture some territory.
You can expect to get sunk often in the inner sea. The trade routes will give 2x to 3x the amount of gold, even on short routes, as compared with the starting zones. You will also start getting more Reputation items and other Food items for the Epic and Legendary Drinks from the Distillery.
Misc. Tips
Tapping on the ship icon on the right will center the map on your Flagship.
Maritime Incidents may be completed without unlocking the associated island. This way, you can save your daily compass usage. Just tap on the island Flag.
You may either tap on a location to order your ship to go there, or you may drag a line (path) from the ship to where you want to go.
Sailing into the fog must be done manually by dragging a path.
Your ship’s crew will consume Food to keep up Morale and improve ship function. At zero food, the crew will abandon the ship. You can toggle on/off a function to automatically use food while at sea. At the port, your crew will not consume food, but you can only stay for a limited period.
Staying at a Port will protect you from attack by other players. This is similar to using a Shield in other games.

Game Strategy
The game runs top-down like similar games in the genre. Your town is located on a small island and you will use Ships to battle monsters, gather resources, and complete storyline missions.
Your ships will be crewed by pirates that you train at the Pub. You’ll need to make weapons for the pirates, and cannons for any ships you build as well as cannons for upgrades to your Gate (town wall).
You will be limited in the number of ships you can have in your harbor depending on the level of your Dock. Ships are built at the Shipyard and then launched into the port.
I wouldn’t suggest replacing your ships with higher-tier ones unless a mission objective requires it. You will get upgrade parchments later on that can be used with Gold to tier up your ships to Galleons.
Every day you can speed up any construction timer by 100 minutes, up to 10 times by watching a short 20-second advertisement.
You also get similar advertisement speedup options available when healing pirates, upgrading ships, crafting gear, and the Free Daily Rewards.
The daily rewards have 10 stages that will reward you with 100 Gold each on the first 9 and then 1,000 Gold on the last one for a total of 1,900 Gold each day.

Gathering Resources vs Production at Island
The basic resources in the game are Food, Lumber, and Silver.
The silver mostly gets used to upgrade ships and gear until the later stages of the game.
I found gathering resources to be incredibly slow, the same can be said for Producing resources in your town. The skill boosts you get from leveling up barely make a difference in the speed.
If you look below, you can see that a level 10 Farm produces much more resources than the upgraded Lumber Mill and the Silver Mine.
Resource Production on the island
I would suggest only building Farms. You can build a single Lumber Mill and Silver Mine to complete the corresponding missions.
You can handle most of your early game Food needs this way and then you only need to focus on Gathering Lumber from islands. You should get plenty of Silver from mission rewards and Events.

Monster Hunting
The best way I found to get resources was by using the Monster Hunting function.
You can send out your ships to hunt critters or merchant ships and you will get good rewards when you win. Better yet, you can turn on the Hunting Streak which sets your ships on auto-pilot, they will keep hunting monsters of a set level until you either run out of Stamina or use Auto-mode.
Some Events run weekly and require you to hunt monsters using Tacticians of set Elements like Fire or Wind. I received a chest with 100,000 Gold from this Event.
I was able to skip a couple levels with all the Gold I got.
Use stamina refills whenever you utilize the Auto-Hunt function
Alliances
Alliance: Your guild or clan will be able to help with speed-ups and boosts to gathering within the territory of the alliance fortress.
You will also receive Chests every time someone completes various tasks in the game or buys something from the Store. It’s also good to keep plunderers away if you are in an active Alliance.
VIP System
VIP: You will start the game at VIP level 1.
At the basic level, you get a 5-minute free speed-up to complete buildings. At level 2, this speed increases to 7 minutes. It’s not particularly appealing.
A good thing though is that you will get all of the Gold rewards from the previous tier that were unclaimed. So about 3,000 Gold, which can be very useful in the early game for upgrading your Castle.
In addition, you will be able to use the “Claim All” function on Alliance chests so that you are not tapping forever claiming them.
To reach VIP 2, you will need to acquire 50 VIP Points.
When I first checked my VIP level it said I had 30 Points accrued, although I couldn’t remember how I got the first 30 points.
You will get 45 Gems as part of the Tutorial which can be spent on a Shop item that gets you 10 VIP points.
Theoretically, this would mean that you would only need to spend $1 on a basic pack in the Shop to level up your VIP ranking.
For just a dollar you can raise your VIP level and get 3,000 gold
I played West Game through the Adgem offer wall in FreeCash and earned $62.64 after reaching the final goal. I only spent $1 on a beginner pack.
Offer terms are to “complete” Town Center level 16, which usually means getting to 17.
Layout
The town layout doesn’t really feel like any of the other games I have played, so I couldn’t really call it a clone.
Gameplay is very standardized and follows the same set themes of the genre. A nice difference is that the resource buildings are automated and will accumulate resources without having to tap on them to collect them every time.
There are caps on resource storage space, so you will need to keep an eye on the numbers if you are away for a time.
Strategy
Starting out, you don’t have a lot of resources, and gathering resources is tedious. I would suggest only using Siege units for Gathering as they have the best Load capacity.
You can only use 1 March until Town Center level 8. Use up all your energy fighting mobs and bosses, and then send out your gathering units. Heroes can be imprisoned in this game, so never send your hero on the Gathering march.
VIP Level
Raising your VIP level is useful, and there are two tiers of VIP ranks.
The second tier unlocks after reaching VIP 10. I got to VIP 5 on the second day of gameplay, and it has made a big difference in getting through the building upgrades.
I have also crafted Equipment that supports Troop Load, Farm Production, and Coin Production. Crafting materials will mostly come from your Alliance gift boxes.
Spending
You probably don’t need to spend any money on this game other than maybe getting the 99-cent starter hero.
Everything else in the store seems to be $5 or more. I expect this game offer to take about a week to finish.
