Picking a character and getting started

Step
In short Your first choice is which character to run, and from that point your job is to collect boxes every eight minutes.

When you join the game, you choose one of ten characters — The Jester, Blue Creature, Spider Mom, Purple Cat, Rainbow Strings, Dough Man, Scary Box, Flower Doll, Non-Hero, or Long Hair Girl. The character you pick shapes the look of your base. Once you are in, the main income loop begins: boxes fall from the sky every eight minutes, and collecting them earns you the cash you need to upgrade.

  1. Pick a character your base's appearance follows whoever you choose.
  2. Boxes fall every eight minutes, so check back regularly.
  3. Each box adds to your cash, and cash goes toward upgrades.

What to spend your cash on

  • Walls strengthen your base's defenses.
  • Skills unlock new abilities that make your base more powerful.
  • Protection add features that keep your base safer.
  • Unique look customize the appearance of your base.
  • Completion finishing every upgrade on a character's tycoon earns you that character's badge.

How Rebirth works

Warn
In short Rebirth wipes your base and cash, but the permanent bonuses it gives make every future run faster.

Rebirth is the game's prestige system. Triggering it resets your castle and your cash. What you receive in return compounds over multiple rebirths.

Worth watching out for
Your base and all accumulated cash are reset when you rebirth.
Each rebirth permanently raises your Max Health and your Cash Multiplier.
Exclusive skins are also awarded through rebirth.
06

Badges and long-term goals
