FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I spend Cash or Gold first?

Cash funds rolls, hires, and rebirth gates; Gold buys permanent stat upgrades. Spend Cash to keep production moving and save Gold for upgrades that stay with you.

When should I rebirth?

Rebirth once your current setup has stalled and you meet the requirement comfortably. Resetting at the bare minimum usually costs you more time than it saves.

Do upgrades reset on rebirth?

Gold stat upgrades and rebirth rewards persist, while cash-funded progress is rebuilt. That is why guides push you to bank Gold before a reset.

Is it ever worth skipping an upgrade tier?

Sometimes. If the next tier unlocks a production multiplier, skipping filler upgrades to reach it can be faster than evenly spreading your spending.
