Building up your character with money
Tips
Every enemy you defeat earns you money. That money goes toward upgrading your stats. Reaching $1,000, $100,000, and $1,000,000 each unlock their own badges.
- Balance attack and defense — high attack kills enemies faster, but low defense means you die quickly.
- Grinding the same stage repeatedly is a reliable way to stack up money before moving on.
- Check your stats regularly so you can spot which area is lagging behind.

Common questions
FAQCan I reach all the eras without spending real money?
Yes. Every era and upgrade is accessible through in-game earnings alone.
I keep dying in a new era — what should I do?
Go back to an earlier era you can handle and grind for money there. Spend it on whichever stat is causing the problem — defense if you die fast, attack if enemies outlast you — then try again.
