Includes instructional guides for completing mobile game offers on “Get Paid To” sites.

Empire: Four Kingdom’s

I found this game listed on the Adgem with the offer term of “Complete level 20.” The Standard 30-day time limit on the Adgem offer wall applies. 2400 SB on a double-point special. Very little information was available for the Mobile game. The company operates a browser-based version of the game which has a similar name. The is a Wikia but it has little information and a noticeable lack of Spellchecker use.

You will earn Experience points mostly from constructing buildings or by completing quests. I was only getting 1 exp for each enemy I attacked. The Robber Barons (NPC) can be leveled up by repeatedly attacking them. At level 3 the Baron will have the possibility of dropping Gems. It takes 12,000 Experience to reach level 20.

I had difficulty finding out how to play the game after the short tutorial ended. Too much of the game operates on the assumption that the player already knows how to play. There were many game functions without any instructions beyond “Do this activity and get a reward.” There is a Help section in the Settings page but it only alludes to the game functions and does not instruct as to how to interact with the game.

A small camp on the right side of your castle outside the wall will have daily missions that provide rewards. The Fortune Wheel gives a free spin each day with additional spins available after watching ads. In the Store at the bottom of the list, you will find the Online Rewards for being logged in.

Early in the tutorial, you will be prompted to join an alliance. One of the Daily Activity items is to request help from your alliance. This option is level gated although it is not readily apparent and so being in an alliance is sort of useless in the early game. Another activity is to send resources to another lord and I tried this twice without it checking off as complete. After sending resources to 3 players, 1 of which was an ally it worked but I don’t know which was the triggering action.

There are rewards for reaching new-level milestones as well as rewards for maintaining an Honor Rank each week. Daily logins will get you a bonus if you are in an Alliance and if you have VIP active.

At level 13 you can capture an Outpost to provide additional resources. You want to find one with good resources. All outposts will provide food and either wood or stone. The ratio you want is 8/8 between food and the stone/wood.

The Outpost can build most of the same buildings as your primary castle and you can use Market Carts to ship resources between them. You can also launch attacks from the Outpost on players and NPCs. The Outpost will have its own resources separate from your main castle and it will frequently run short of either Wood or Stone depending on which specialty you choose.

Gold can be used to purchase siege equipment from the merchants outside of your castle. It is also used to take on Missions at the small camp. As you increase in level the Gold requirements will increase exponentially. Gold can be acquired from most activities in the game but especially from selling unused Equipment.

At the Forge, you can combine any 3 pieces of gear of the same tier to make a random gear of the same tier. If you put in 6 items they will generate a single higher tier item. You can get better gear from quest rewards early on so I would suggest selling the junk as Gold is very useful.

It took me 10 days to complete the offer terms without making any purchases. I was not attacked by any other players during this time. I did play aggressively and frequently attacked others but found most denizens to be peace-loving types who were only interested in PvE combat.


Fire & Glory part 2

Well I gave up after hitting level 15. They add 5 new resources to the game at level 15 which meant the 2 farm accounts I had built would also need to be 15 to get the extra resources. Simply not enough time without spending money.

It is unfortunate because I recently got a message on Swagbucks for the same game but for 750 SB for reaching level 15. Disappointing.


In other news, I ordered a drone from DJI and FedEx ended up losing the package. So I am playing phone tag with DJI and FedEx trying to get everything sorted out. My $500 in limbo.

I am working on putting together a grand gallery list of all of the Consorts, maidens and heroines from all of the games I have played. Check it out here.

Fire and Glory

909 SB to reach level 21 Stronghold, I’ll give it a shot. I’ve done many like this before and mostly the resources needed dry up fast. Other times it’s the speedup items you run out of as buildings take 1-2 weeks to finish.

This may not work out, I’ve been on a bad streak with the game offers lately. I failed Pirate King and one of the slot machine offers. The lowest cost item to buy here is 5 bucks which isn’t worth it in my opinion for a 9-dollar offer.

You just get the one Hero and they can be captured at Fort level 15 and then executed at level 20. So the important thing is to not send your hero out to gather resources.

I was looking at the in-game chat and these guys were joking that one of the other Alliances had spent thousands of dollars on the game. There are regular events in the game and one of the events is called “Raise Funds.”

For every dollar spent you get 1 point, at 200 points you get the first reward of an 8-hour peace shield.

You can see the rankings on the event page, so with a little math involved you can see just how much individual players are spending on the game. My own alliance looks to have spent a little over $1,000 as of this posting.

The smallest package in the game is $4.99 which is out of my price range, especially with the reward only being $9 to play.

I’ve put all of my stat points into boosting the Heroes attack bonus. I’ve similarly focused my Research on the Hero panel improving critical hit rate and attack combos.

The goal is to be able to one-hit the Monsters on the world map. I am saving up all my crafting materials in order to get a Blue (Elite) or higher piece of gear.

You run out of Rubble (Stone) quite fast and it is needed for all of the starting buildings. I ended up spending all of my Gold buying resources to rush to Fort Level 13.

I saved and spent all of my Alliance Loyalty credit on getting the VIP points. My VIP level is currently 4th Rank and I may get it to 5th before spending the rest of my points on Hero EXP items.


Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery

Got this one on a 2x special from Adgem and have finished it on 3rd day. All Adgem offers have a 30-day time limit unless otherwise noted. It’s a fairly simple game, just tapping through screens.

If I had to do it again I would have stayed in the First year longer to farm stat boosts and Friendship levels. In the Second year, all of the friends and the lessons wanted high-level stats to get good rewards.

The Events especially had high standards to get ahead. I spent much of my time after finishing the offer just boosting my stats to advance the storyline.

Leveling up the Magical Creatures is good. The Niffler can give you 40 points in a stat at max level when you feed it. Hagrid’s quest to get a Fairy is really just to get you to buy Gems in the shop. Even halfway through chapter 2, I haven’t managed to collect enough books.

I would have liked to play as House Slytherin actually. I chose the blue one; raven something? Anyway, I ended up getting my Empathy stat way too high. Courage is more useful in early-game encounters. Knowledge is good in the Second chapter but Empathy you get for cheap from impressing the professors.


Final Fantasy XV: A New Empire

I got bored waiting around for my points to post on #Swagbucks so #Adgem had this game on their offer wall for like $14 with a double point special.

The trick with the game is simply to build Siege troops. You don’t need to do anything else. Tier 1 Siege units are all you need to hit 220k Power. I’ve also seen reports on Reddit that it credits at 200k power.

I ran out of resources right after the tutorial and was forced to stop playing 😰. I got attacked really early on by level 50+ players. Wiped out my troops collecting resources on the map and they burned my entire guild 🥶.

The game is way difficult, or it would have been if not for me opening a royal chest from the guild monster hunt event. 200,000 Gold🤩. I can buy my way to the finish line with no problem.

If you can get on an older server the rewards for completing tasks and regular events are Huge. I was able to complete the offer the same day I downloaded it, took maybe an hour.

Offer pending

I’ve got two offers that haven’t been credited, so I am holding off on doing more smartphone games until I get my Swagbucks.

I played the Grand Mafia game through the Revenue Universe offer wall on a doubler. It is similar to Mafia City with some slight rearrangements to action order. I finished the offer in 6 days. The terms were to reach mansion level 17 within 40 days.

I aced that lol. I saved up 24k gold and paid my way from mansion level 14-17. Although it is likely that fast level-up that has me stuck pending. Oh, and the support sucks. The support team on the app store referred me to the in-game GM, which doesn’t work.

The other game is War & Magic: Kingdom Reborn. That was through Ayet Studios and I needed to reach 1 million power and make an in-game purchase. This was also on a doubler and I should get 2312 SB.

The problem is they only rewarded me for reaching 1 million power and not the purchases I made. Worse yet I was only given the normal reward which is 816 SB.

I couldn’t submit a help request from Ayet Studios because the offer wall said I had no points pending and it doesn’t give you the option to dispute rewards.

I emailed them after much scouring of the internet only to be referred to the Pending support option which was not available to me in the first place.

At the moment I am waiting on Swagbucks support to get back to me about War & Magic. Revenue Universe was contactable through their offerwall thankfully.

Worst of all I recently did Looney Tunes Mayhem on an offerwall for 540SB and I see it today on Swagbucks for 2000SB. What a loss.

If you looking for a nice side hustle for spending money then #Swagbucks is the place to be. Also, check out my guide to #Investing.

Two more done

Finished Afk Arena (3108SB) and Looney Tunes World of Mayhem(540) both on 2x.

Investing Update

I’ve been buying SPACs lately. I picked up 10 shares of Energy/Environment searching SPAC and set half to sell at $20 and the rest at $25-30.

I have had many successes as these are hot industries currently. Electric cars are another category that is profitable for a small initial investment.

I put in $100-150 to start and get back $125-150 in profits once all positions are cleared. I am missing some bigger wins by not holding longer but I avoid potential losses too.

There are 3 Spac’s that I am holding in SoFi that are long-term positions. WPF, BFT, and VGAC. BFT will become Paysafe which I expect will hit the hundreds later this year as it competes with Paypal. Vgac is Sir Richard Branson’s SPAC and I am a fan, also I am of British descent so I am biased. Lastly, Foley Trasimene has had a good track record so far and I am eager to see which company gets picked next.

I have 100 shares of BFT, 100 WPF, and 50 VGAC. I also scored big recently on Adamis Pharma which I bought 2000 shares of at $0.40 last year and sold half at $0.80 and the rest at $1.

State of Survival

I got this one done on an AdGem 2x for $56. Reach level 21 in 20 days.

There are tons of guides floating around and redemption codes, so I won’t bother with a walkthrough this time. I did buy the starter pack for a dollar, but I found I didn’t really need it.

Though I did put Lucky and the other ladies in a gallery post.

Make sure you get into an active Alliance. You can get hundreds of chests each day with speedup items that will really help you complete the daily events.

I didn’t have any problems with resources and really didn’t need to train a large army. In fact, gathering resources was largely unnecessary outside of Events.

During my playthrough, a Seasonal Event hit, and there were many extra bonuses available that made this offer easy.

If possible, you should time your start of the offer to coincide with a holiday. You can check the State of Survival social media sites to see what events are upcoming and schedule your start accordingly.

The game had many spammers in the chat, likely bots, given the frequency. PVP was nonexistent, so I never put up a shield, and the offer paid out at level 20. Cakewalk.

This was the first time I’ve had a smartphone game recognize my use of Korean and cater to that. Quite pleasing. 감사합니다

Game Guide: Rise of Kingdoms

This offer took 14 days to complete. I had Google Play credits from doing Google Opinion Surveys. I used a dollar to get the special starter Japanese hero (Sanada Yukimura) and some boosts.

I’m actually watching a show about Sanada Yukimura currently, so this is kind of cool.

The tutorial gets you through basic movement around the map and the construction of your city center. Make sure you join an active alliance and preferably one that is not combat-focused.

Those Help requests will really do you good on the construction timers. For starting Nation, you should take France and then later on switch to China.

Things went well till maybe the 10th day, when this fool leading our alliance decided to attack the biggest alliance on the map.

I had seen them destroy another team earlier from a public posting. They had over 3 million troops split among 6 alliances.

Anyways, he woke the sleeping beast, and we got overrun. I teleported away and quit the group; I went solo to finish my mission.


In other news, I did some debit card deals with Varo and Aspiration, and those got me up to Amethyst rank at Swagbucks. So I’ve made over $100 in points to date.
