For players with lives
The ten-minute daily routine
If this is all you do today, your account will keep moving and your alliance will still benefit from having you.
Do these in order
The red-dot rule
| What the dot opens | What to do |
|---|---|
| A free reward you already earned | Claim it. |
| Alliance Help or a free donation | Tap it. |
| A normal queue that stopped | Restart it. |
| A request to use gems, speedups or fragments | Pause. Check today's event and your current priority. |
| A “Power Up” suggestion | Do not obey automatically. The game is showing an available upgrade, not necessarily the best upgrade. |
| A purchase offer with fireworks | Still pause. Fireworks are not a mathematical proof of value. |
If you have thirty more minutes
- Finish the inexpensive parts of today's events.
- Use remaining free battle attempts.
- Join more alliance rallies.
- Check whether any building, research or troop timer can finish during your next login window.
- Review one battle report instead of staring only at Power.
- Help with the alliance's marked target or scheduled event.
Before logging out
The empty-queue checkBuilder moving? Research moving? Troops training? Marches gathering? If yes, close the game without guilt.
Why save stamina cans and flexible speedups?
Naturally refilling stamina and empty queues are lost time, so use them. Items sitting safely in your bag do not expire merely because the screen is red. Saving flexible items lets you spend them when an event rewards the same action—or when your alliance actually needs a push.
