Merge Gardens

March 10, 2026 Kasanje Leave a comment

I’m doing this one through FreeCash. It is a Merging game with Match3 puzzles for advancement through the game.

I checked the offer terms for Swagbucks and didn’t like the time limits on completing stages. They also had too many purchase requirements. The offer through FreeCash doesn’t include any purchases and has set time limits.

I’m not pleased with the game.

The only thing you really need to do is clear the puzzles, but all the micromanagement stuff is drawing my attention and wasting time that could be spent on puzzles.

It’s addictive.

But honestly, neither site has a good deal. I wouldn’t suggest this offer. A third of the reward is relegated to bonus goals that are unachievable.

Terms

It’s 60 days to complete the offer with the first regular goal at level 30 for $1.88. The next goals are level 40, 50, and 60 by day 45 for $3.08, $6.15, and $12, respectively. Only getting 15 days to clear 30 levels is really not enough.

The final leg of the offer is levels 70 through 100 with only another 15 days to finish. This last bit is worth $258.75. If you add the lost rewards from the bonus goals, it becomes $437.50 out of total offer of $469.88.

So, realistically, I will only be able to earn $32.38 from Merge Gardens on FreeCash. As I said before, I wouldn’t recommend this offer.

Game Strategy & Support Tips

Guide credit goes to Swagbucks community on Reddit.

Lets get started with some efficient merging and resource management by always waiting to merge five items at a time, especially for those mysterious veins and gems to the max.

You should never buy baskets or hampers since its better to save your gems for missions or continuing puzzles.

After you hit level 50, keep a cache of 5-7 daily supplies so you aren’t stuck waiting for days.

basic instructions on how to merge blocks in the puzzles

For puzzles and wildlife, only do match-3 puzzles if they are necessary for leveling up or events, and focus on merging stars up to level 5 before tapping to get swan nests for your wildlife score.

Honey trees are going to be your basic source for money and eggs too.

If you can, the 30-day gem pack is worth it for a steady supply, but just spend what you need to reach goals since the game can become a grind.

missions or goals to complete to level up character

You’ll want to grind your birds throughout the day whenever they have full energy. For levels 1-50, focus on merging basics and using events for infinite lives or boosts.

Once you’re in the level 50-70 range, start saving your daily boxes and trade bags until a quest actually requires them, and prioritize honey bees for your wildlife score.

Flawless Nectar. The highest tier of nectar in the game.

For the high levels up to 99, keep grinding high-value items, but keep in mind that many think level 99 is basically impossible without a massive time investment.

If you run into issues with getting credited, make sure to provide timestamped screenshots to support and ask for an escalation to a senior specialist if they push back.

Lastly, remember that the game eventually gives you “pity rounds” after enough fails, and you can always use 25 gems for extra moves on the tough puzzles.

Swagbucks: Call of Antia

January 28, 2022 Kasanje 2 Comments

I did this offer for Call of Antia through the aYet Studios offer wall.

Unfortunately, they did not credit me the correct amount. I only received 50% of the advertised rewards. I sent in a ticket, and they said to wait 7 days to see if it was credited.

I emailed back that they were misunderstanding me and that I had already been credited, but that it was the wrong amount. No response.

7 days later, I replied to the ticket message that I was still without the credit. No response. I checked the offer wall, and the game wasn’t listed under my pending offers. 10 Days later, I replied again to the ticket. No contact.

offer terms clearly show the correct amount

The offer requires that you purchase a “Battle Pass” for $9.99. I ended up barely breaking even on this offer after the purchase.

I now see that they have another Call of Antia offer up for 21,250 SB, and that you need to collect 8 of the 5-star heroes. This is quite impossible without spending hundreds of dollars.

You can buy 1 5-Star hero for $99, and you get a 5-Star for every 85 Sacred summons using Orange Summon Stones valued at $1 each.

Unless you get lucky on your summons, you are looking at close to $700 spent to complete this version. And aYet Studios may not credit you the correct amount.

they only paid 50% of the advertised reward

I would definitely advise against doing this offer through the aYet Studios offer wall, if at all.

Uncredited Game Offer for Puzzles and Conquest

November 24, 2021 Kasanje Leave a comment

A while back I made an offer for Puzzles & Conquest through the SB Live app. I had to reach Castle 15 and get a 5-star hero. I bought the 5-star hero advertised in the game for five dollars and tax to complete the terms.

I never received credit for the purchase and eventually had to submit a ticket with a screenshot of the terms, my account, the purchase, and lastly that I had since acquired 2 additional 5-star heroes.

I received a denial. IronSource (SB Live) claimed that the advertiser could not confirm that I had completed the offer. I continued to email them further evidence of my completion of the terms.

I received further denials after more correspondence with the advertiser. I then requested a refund from Google Play for the purchase of the 5 Star hero. The response was that any refund could only be issued by the publisher 37Games.

I then contacted the game advertiser directly and explained the issue and requested a refund. They (Global.37Games) referred me back to the platform (SB Live) for either credit or a refund. 37Games insisted that they had no control over the offer or any Refunds.

As of 11/24/21, I am awaiting a response from IronSource to my latest appeal.

I am owed compensation; either as credit for completion of the offer terms or as a refund for the qualifying purchase I made to meet the offer terms and conditions.
The question now is which of these three entities (Google, IronSource, 37Games) holds responsibility.

Game Guide: Puzzles and Conquest

October 10, 2021 Kasanje 7 Comments

There are varying versions of this game offered on Swagbucks and other platforms. This guide is for an older offer, but the gameplay tips are still very valid.

Puzzles & Conquest is a Build & Battle mobile game that incorporates Match3 mechanics for story progression.

This one is potentially a money maker, although you can do it without a purchase if you’d like. Puzzles & Conquest can be found in the SB Live app and it should be listed for at least 1,981 SB.

Offer Terms

Offer Terms require you to reach Castle level 15 and to acquire a 5-star Hero to get the full reward.

Total spending for the offer

P2W

Very easy. After you complete the tutorial there will be a pop-up offer to buy Lucifer Hero for $4.99, he is a 5-star hero.

Beyond that, you only need to reach Castle level 15. You will get a large cache of Gems when you buy the pack, which can be used to speed through building upgrades to reach castle level 10.

F2P

If you are going for the full reward and don’t intend on spending any money on packs or heroes this is what you’ll want to focus on.

Your Economy heroes will give big discounts on Building/Researching Costs, Construction Timers, Troop Training Capacity, Gathering Speeds, and Resource Output Speed.

Our goal is to get the Castle up to 15 ASAP and clinch the 800 points in the Beginner Event: Saurland’s New Dawn. This will earn us our first 5-star hero.

Summoning

You will need 10 Fragments to initially summon the Hero. The bonus the hero provides is based on their Level and Enhancement Rank.

Heroes can achieve 8 Ranks from collecting Fragments; however, the Economy heroes only go to 5th rank.

For this offer, you will want to collect Scarlet, Harald, Sakhir, Albertus, Lamassu, and Elros.

You get 5 free summons per day at the Basic level and 1 free rare. You also get 1 free Deluxe summon every 2 days. Playing in the Campaign will also earn you basic summon tokens as well as Blitzing the campaign missions for rewards.

Several events will play out in the first week that will provide additional summoning opportunities.

Tips & Tricks

You should wait until you have 9 tokens available and then do the discounted (10x) summon option.

You will get both Fragments of Heroes and also have a chance at a “whole” hero. Since we don’t need to clear many levels of the Campaign for our strategy you won’t need to only level up Good heroes.

Just focus on getting your Economy Heroes all up to level 31 and then Enhancing them with your collected fragments.

Recycling

In the Hero tab under Bag, you can Recycle hero fragments that you do not need.

You will get points for each recycled fragment and these in turn can be used to get the Economy fragments. If you exchange your Military fragments for Economy, you will get a large amount.

Hunting

You can Hunt Monsters on the world map to get Scarlet and Nilesh fragments.

Monsters levels 1-9 will drop Scarlet and 10-19 have a chance at Nilesh or more likely Scarlet. Getting Scarlet to max rank is easy due to the numerous drops of her fragment in the game.
