Why am i winning only 1 gold everyday?

[Leonardo]

in on day 15, and suddenly, i lost most of my employes(most archers) and then i geting almost no gold. also, why i need to get the sickle?

[Howru]

Amount of gold from everyday chest is related to level of your castle.
In level 1-2 you will get 5 coints, on level 3-4 - 3 coins and on level 5 - 1 coin.

To get coins - cut some trees around your camp and wait untill grass will grow and rabbits will start to spawn.

P.S. But I think in your case it's better to restart the game)

i failed at level 25 T_T a giant boss spawed and i had only 5 archers. now i have 40 archers at level 20 and just one farm. i still dont get what the sickle does. you recomend level up all towers to suport 3 archers at the same time, or two are enough? i also upgrading all wood walls to stone walls. i will get any advantage to keep upgrading the castle? i can upgrade, but i choose to upgrade the stone walls or contract more archers.

With a stone castle you can create knights, who will lead an asssault to destroy a portal. Destroying all the portals is how you win the game. No other reason for the castle upgrade, put off doing it until you're strong enough to go for the portals. Destroying a portal will bring a big attack wave on both sides like a blood moon, you have to be ready to survive that.

man, can i add you on steam? i need to talk with someone for tips for this game.

[Howru]

Tips are simple - recruit every day at least 6 peasants and turn them into archers)

Archers will hunt rabbits - meaning more hunters = more gold. So real bottleneck is amount of free people that you can get.

And rabbits spawn from tall grass, that appear on long normal grass patches, so you need to cut trees to create them.

[Howru]

Strategy for first 5 days:

1) Skip intro (it will save you ~3 minutes in first day)
2) Get all coints, upgrade campfire, recruit two vagrants and buy two bows for them.
3) You will have 3 coins left - run to the right, recruit 1 vagrant from first camp and two from second.
4) Return to base, get coins from archers, buy 2 more bows.
5) If you have spare money - return into first vagrant camp to the right, hire last one here.

So at first night you now have 4 archers and 1-2 free peasants. More than enough for defence.

Get coins from chest, buy more bows, run to the right. Hire all free vagrants and go further.
You will have enough time to run past first portal to check whats behind it and return before it opens.
Whole goal of this searching is to find masonry shrine, free chests and camps.

Return to your base (don't upgrade it yet). Get coins from archers, buy one hammer and more bows. Survive second night with at least 8 archers and 1 builder.

Now, you need to run left (do it not at morning, but when all Greed from left side will be dead, it will give you ~1-2 more minutes). Cut first 3-5 trees to the left, creating hunting ground. Run further to the left, searching for shrines, camps, chests.

Return, hire vagrants from all camps.
Repeat it on day 4.

Day 5 is important. You should upgrade your camp at morning of day 5, and then upgrade it two times during day to get free wals before night of day 5 start.

With hiring bare minimum of 4 vagrants per day you will have 20 archers and wooden walls - enough to easily survive first Blood Moon.

Now you have strong base and can continue the same way - recruit, investigate, upgrade)

i did that and still lost :(. so the goal is to contract 6 new recruits everyday until the end of the game? you think that just one farmer for a farm is enough? that killed me in my furthest gameplay was that i put too many archers on towers in the first days.

now i have one more tip. about destroying the 4 portals. after i destroy one monsters will appear to attack me right? when that happen? if i destroy 2 portals in one day what will happen?

[Howru]

You don't need farmers at all. Hunters with big enough field will get you ~40-60 coins per day.
Also don't build archer towers at all - they are bad investment, since archers there won't hunt.

Yes, after you destroy all 4 portals - there will ba one Last Wave from both sides. If yo usurvive it - you will win.
Destroying 2 portals in one day possible, but since after portal destruction it will spawn attack from that side - you will be attacked during day from both sides and it may be quite hard.

i though that having farmers would help cause the farms drops golds everyday. and how the hell you get 40-60 coins per day? how many archer are we talking about here?

after destroying a portal the attack from monsters will happen in the next day or imediatelly after destroying it?

[Ruyven]

At hiring 6 archers per day, that would be 60 archers by day 10. If you clear enough forest in front of your walls to have a large grass field (which will spawn many rabbits) they can get you lots of coins!

After destroying a portal, the attack from monsters will happen immediately, in fact it's likely they'll kill the knights and archers you sent out.

its good to know that, so you recomend me waiting how many days until i send new warriors to the next portal? like 10 days, to spam enough archers? theres any problems not expanding my camp too much to the right or to the left? i dont want to kill some tents since they are spaming point of new archers

[spencerselander]

10 days is way too slow. Most of your guys aren't killed, just robbed - you need to give coins to them to get them back. Ride out with coins right after the battle and get them, and the new recruits that are available. As soon as you rebuild your force and repair your walls, you're ready to go again - maybe the next day if things went really well, or it might take a little longer if they didn't.

[Leonardo]

guys im on day 70. now im trowing knifes instead of arrows :D i have a doubt. i will get anything extra if i actually survive 100 days? theres 30 days left and only one portal left. it worth to live the 100 days?

[Leonardo]

i made an confusion, i beat it in day 55. im so happy. i had so much fun playing this game.
i notice something. i didnt need to actually destroy the camps where the begar lives to advance. i destroyed then for nothing. i can just advance a little more and the lumberjacks can cut further trees. its probably a piece of cake to go to day 100 if you dont destroy any camps. i have only 2 active. i noticed too that, if i put save and quit. i can resume the game right before i finish it.
thanks in particular to howru that helped me a lot with tips and the other guys of course.

[SPRÆY]

Thanks Howru* for the guide :D
