Beginner’s Guide: Your First 7 Days

The first-week priorities#

Keep the Sanctuary upgrading because it controls building, research, and hero progression. Gather Grain, Timber, Herbs, Antitoxin, and Raven Essence; keep troop training and research active; and join an active alliance as early as possible.

For the opening squad, concentrate resources instead of spreading them across every hero. The illustrated path starts with Arthur and Bella in front, with Marlena, Claire, and Celia behind them.

Seven-day rhythm#

1. Establish the Sanctuary, train troops, gather resources, and join an alliance.
2. Upgrade buildings, begin research, and complete daily tasks.
3. Clear more map tiles, gather, and grow the main squad.
4. Improve heroes, gear, and research while keeping resources flowing.
5. Complete event tasks, use speedups thoughtfully, and keep upgrading.
6. Tune the lineup, finish upgrades, and prepare for the final push.
7. Claim rewards, complete remaining event tasks, and finish strong.
