The basic loop
Step
When you first load in, nothing is generating power yet — you need to place a generator to get things moving. From there, power flows into your batteries, and once they fill up you can sell that stored power around the city for cash. Take that cash and reinvest it into more facilities so the cycle runs faster.
- Place a generator this starts producing power immediately.
- Set up a battery power builds up here until you are ready to cash out.
- Sell the stored power head out and convert full batteries into cash.
- Reinvest the cash buy more generators or batteries to grow your operation.
Growing your output faster
Tips
A single generator and a single battery will get you started, but the income stays small. Stacking more of each is how players pull ahead.
- Add generators one by one as your cash allows — each one raises your total production rate.
- Place multiple batteries so power keeps accumulating even while you are busy selling one batch.
Dealing with other players
Warn
The game includes a theft mechanic — other players can take power you have stockpiled. You can choose to focus entirely on solo city-building, but the threat is always there as long as you are on a server with others.
