Whats the best fastest way of building up coins?

[GAMESweetG]

I'm finding it frustrating building up coins. As I'm finding it very long and low receiving coins. I haven't given the game a review yet. And if I don't find any easier way to make coins faster. I will give a negative review.

You wouldn't like the game if you can't buy stuff fast instead of just actually playing it?

If I remember right, in the towns, using 4 instead of normal 3 items to get the next higher level gives you (more) coins.

The game is good but I agree, the coin collecting seems mighty slow. I feel like I am getting nowehere fast. It felt like a pay to win tablet game so I googled it and I was right it is on Android and iOs. The balance feels off for a PC conversion. I am slowly making bigger towns but I feel like you should be able to see at least the next move for free by default else there is too much luck involved. Of course you can buy fortune cookies etc but then we are back to the money issue...

Yeah, it takes forever. I play a little bit, then get bored and stop, then pick up the game months later to play some more. Since there's no story there's no incentive to keep playing.

As for coins, always make somethign with 4 instead of 3 if you can.

When I suggested this, it was immediately shot down as it's faster to just play the game, finish the map, collect whatever you earned there and start over. It's a valid point since making 4 of grass only nets you 2 more coins and requires you to plan much more in order to get the higher tier 4 of a kind bonusses. Basically, it isn't very time efficient to make 4 of a kinds all the time.

I already had given it a negative review. But it's a good negative review as I explained why.

Concur, it's imbalanced. The solution: the ability to sell items.

[Losk Osmanthus 路渐秋凉]

lol negative review because you cant "finish" the game "fast"?

come on, this is a game like tic tac toe, the coin is just for extra fun.

Since I havent give the game a review either, I will go ahead to write a positive one to balance out yours then.

Peaceful Valley (black ship flag with a giant line across a bear's face). I usually get around 900 coins per playthrough.

No bears no rocks cluttering up the place. Easy to combo grass into houses.

Also I agree with the post above. The coins are just an added bonus the real game isn't the castle town.

Look at the time I made that post and the time I made this edit. Pretty decent time/money ratio to be honest.

There we go. Another 15 minutes worth of gameplay later.

If all you want is coins then Peaceful Valley is the place to go.

@Greenraven22 That Island is not always available.

There's actually a trick to that. What happens is that the game swaps out one of the game modes once every 24 hours (so peaceful valley for lots of bears for example), EXCEPT when there is a game already in progress in that mode.

So if you want to be able to play peaceful valley all the time, keep a session in it active before you close the game. That way, it won't be swapped out and you can keep playing it whenever you want.

Then why do I end up being returned to my town?

[Koowluh]

You can and will always be returned to town by either selecting it on top, quitting the game in the menu or ending an island by having it filled up. You can recognize any game still in progress by the sails on the boats when you are in town.

I always leave a game of peaceful valley open before I quit the entire game. That ensures that I can leave this game for days or weeks and still return an play peaceful valley.

It doesn't do that for me. I do leave Peaceful Valley. And return to town. After I exit and return. But when I return to Peaceful Valley. It starts a new one.

Then either your progress is not saving or something else is wrong with which I cannot help you. Contact Spryfox Support if you need more help.

For that matter, I prefer the many bears map. Bears make churches, churches make cathedrals, and cathedrals give out treasure chests. Mind you, you have to be in a gambling mood, since treasure chests don't always give out coins, in fact they rarely do. But it's worth the gamble. Many bears maps are even quicker to play, and they seem to generate the matching gem fairly often meaning you should get at least one treasure chest per attempt. Sometimes, since the bears maps are rocky, you can use the gem to match two rocks and get a mountain, which nets you a treasure chest when you crunch it with the robot.

The truest method for grinding out valuables is to play several maps at once. Use the Peaceful Valley as your main map, and only build on that one when you have things in your Inventory to build with, so that all your moves are 100% predictable. This takes a really long time, though, but in the end you'll start really racking up points with triple castles and whatnot.
