Idle Miner: Event Island Tips

Idle Miner has introduced a new kind of island: The event islands.

These islands are meant to be played and finished in just a couple of days. If you do so, you'll be given great prizes as a reward for your hard work. But, many people seem to have big troubles getting through it completely. Therefor, a few tips on how to complete these islands in their given time.

Event: Candy Mine

At first: It works best if you can keep the game running all the time. That way, you'll be guaranteed of the best possible income and have the most efficient way of upgrading.

Income Boosts: The first tip is to use Income Boosts. They will give you greater amounts of cash to spend on upgrading your mines, elevator and storage. Try to combine it with the video bonus as well to get an even bigger bonus. If you are a daily player, you might have received a couple of them already by the daily login bonus.

Start first with getting all mines: The wisest thing is to get all the mines to your use. That does take some time (Couple of hours, mostly depending on how fast the unlocking of the new floors will be), but will make it easier later on. As you will have to wait for the mine upgrades after each 5 levels, you have some time to upgrade your existing mines for an even better income per mine. But keep in mind: You'll need a good amount of money for getting new mines to use.

Directors: If you can, get at least 1 director for the elevator and storage (Preferably 2 or even 3, so you can switch between them while cooling-down the other(s)). You can do this after you have most of the mines: That brings in a lot of cash which you can spend on hiring new staff.

Work from top to bottom: After you have unlocked each mine (So you have reached the bottom mine, level 30), the best thing is to start upgrading mines to their maximum one-by-one. Each mine can go to a maximum of 800 levels. Wisest strategy is to start by upgrading mine 1 to it's maximum, followed by the elevator/shaft and storage. After completing mine 1, continue with mine 2 and so on until you have reached you have finished all the mines.


Well, those are some tips on how you can actually finish those event islands. If you have any more tips, feel free to share them with other players by leaving a comment down below :)

Business Tycoon [4 TIPS]

Game: Business Tycoon
Developer: Kewlieo Games
Available on: iOS & Android

Ever wanted to be a manager of multiple types of business at a time? Well, now you can in Business Tycoon. The goal of the game is to buy all the business types and upgrade those. Which things should be taken in consideration in terms of developing your empire? A few good tips to have a even better start:

1. Invest in your companies

By investing in your companies by upgrading, you will be rewarded more money in a shorter period of time. You can also decide to buy whole new companies to collect money from more companies.

2. You want managers, right?

Yes, you certainly do want to have managers in charge of your business. By doing so, you will be gifted a revenue that comes automatically, instead of you clicking on it. Also, it means you will be given money automatically when offline, which makes it way easier to grow.

3. Try to get a multiplier for your income

This one takes some time: You will have to either spend some money on the game or watch quite a few advertisements. You will be rewarded coins, which can be used to buy multipliers for your income and so, a faster way of growing your empire.

4. Pick your upgrades carefully

After you have bought a couple of new companies, it may be better to go back and upgrade your first companies to the maximum level 200. Also, you want to add the managers to those companies, in case you did not do that already.

There you go, 4 tips in order to help you in Business Tycoon. If you have more tips, leave them down in the description of course!! Enjoy!

NASCAR Manager

Always dreamed of owning a NASCAR team yourself? Well, NASCAR manager is the solution for that dream. This game is really about helping your driver getting to the finish line first. You can use both your own driver/team combination or a real driver/team combination, with the likings of Earnheardt, Stewart, Johnson, Busch and many others to pick from. Here, a couple of tips to get better results, especially in the beginning.

1. Take your time

It's best to take your time for this game. The thing is, that your energy level has the most incluence on your pace. And even though you still have fuel and tires to take care for, your energy is what you'd like to keep during the race.

2. Set up your car on the demands of the track.

Another good thing to do is to keep your car set up properly for the demands of the track. Each track requires certain charactaristics of the car to be highlighted. That are usual 3 certain things you need to take in consideration.

3. Sponsors

Start using sponsors in your own career as soon as possible. By doing so, you will get loads of money for upgrading your car, teams and new sponsors. I personally would go for sponsors first, as those reward you with decent amount of cash each race. At second I would go for parts, but do all the parts but the Stock ones. Those are just not worth doing in the beginning at all.

4. Use the small challenges with a race

It's a wise choice to take these challenges, like avoid a crash on track or challenge others drivers on track. Although it may be difficult, it gives a great advantage on track and may also help you with the damage control of your car. More damage means more chance of retiring and also slowing you down, although you may not notice that due to the fact you never see lap times whatsoever. 

There you go, 4 tips to get you started as NASCAR manager!! If you have some tips yourself, feel free to share them with others down below in the comments section!!

Idle Miner: Tips

Screenshot from the actual game.

Game: Idle Miner
Developer: Fluffy Fairy Games
Available on: iOS & Android

A free-to-play clicking game, focussing on mining all sorts of goods. The game is all about investing wise in your shafts. Therefor, a few tips on how to play Idle Miner!

1. The 'not so clicking' clicking game

If you start with this game, you will start of with only 1 type of gem to mine and 1 shaft to use. You should follow the directions given in the sort of tutorial which starts the game. But after clicking a couple of times, you should see a green arrow. This indicates you can 'upgrade' your shaft. Upgrading gives you more money per mining cycle and might also improve walking speed and the amount of workers in 1 mine. To begin with, work your way to level 10 of the first shaft. By doing so, you will enable the opportunity to have managers in the shaft, for the elevator and on the surface. These managers will help you with doing the mining automatically, instead of you clicking all the way.

But there is more: These managers will offer a certain bonus, depending on their function. Managers in the shafts have different bonuses from the manager in the elevator. Besides the different bonuses, they will also have different levels, from Executive to Junior. Take advantage of these bonuses, especially the 'Upgrade costs' manager.

2. Do not only upgrade the shafts

A thing to keep in mind, is that the upgrading should not only be done on the shafts. The elevator and surface must be upgraded as well, otherwise you will be less likely to grow rapidly. A wise thing to keep in mind: Keep both the elevator and surface around the same level as the shaft with the highest level. If you like to use your managers (See point 3), you might want to upgrade your elevator and surface a little bit more.

3. Use your managers' benefits

You should always try to efficiently use your managers. Although I'm not sure there is 1 best way of using them, I use the following strategy (See picture on the right on an example):

I split my managers, based on their quality at first. I start with the Junior managers on top, the executives are always on the floors that are the farther away from the surface. I personally opt to keep the 'Upgrade' managers out of these positions at first, so I can use them when I need them for cheaper upgrading. It's great to use the benefits for generating more money, although you'll need your elevator and surface to be able to keep it up.

4. Get to new regions with new gems as soon as possible.

At the moment, there are 5 different gems/items that can be mined. You start with coal, but there are more regions that can be unlocked with sufficient money. It is recommended to open up at least 1 or 2 of these regions as fast as possible, but keep in mind you will need money for upgrading these shafts as well. At least those upgrades won't be that expensive to start with, so it's a great way of earning more money in different shafts.

Keep an eye on your Idle cash meter. That shows the amount of money you get per second in each complete mine (Depending on the amount and levels of your shafts, the level of the elevator and the level of the surface). It gives a good idea in which region you should be for the most money, so you can upgrade earlier. 

Also, you must keep in mind you will need to visit the other regions to collect your cash. You must do that by yourself.

5. Use super cash wisely

One of the best thing the game has to offer, is that upgrading is rewarded with super cash. Super cash can be used to buy multipliers for your income, with both 2x and 10x the cash is offered as options (And a 2x multiplier forever, for €4,99). Do that wisely: a 2x multiplier for 12 hours has a better value than the 2x multiplier for a single hour. Best is to save up your super cash for the longer
multipliers, although it could be worth the consideration of spending it on shorter ones, for upgrading purposes.

Also, Super Cash can be earned by logging in on a daily basis. It's a good way to make some cash.

6. Patience is the key

Perhaps a little unneeded to say, but patience is the key for this game if you want to keep it free. You should try to take advantage of the 'Watch video' option to have a multiplier and save up super cash for bigger multipliers. Don't expect to completely dominate the game within a few days, but create a strategy that you will follow throughout the game.
