Game Guide

This page is meant for Guides, which purpose is to explain certain aspects or areas of the game. While the guides may be narrow, please follow the **hyperlinked** categories to follow the respective articles for more information regarding the different topics.

Please consider checking the Basics of the Game, Early Game Guidance and Tutorial if you are unclear where to start.

### **Basics of the Game**

#### ***What is this game about?***

Army Clicker is a artistically drawn clicker game with in-depth combat mechanics, comic book-driven story line as well as increasingly harder chapters to progress in game, similar to other clicker games, such as Cookie Clicker or others.

#### ***How do I play it?***

The main aspect of the game is clicking and defeating Missions. Once you gain enough materials, you can start shopping for better upgrades and higher levels will allow you to unlock more content in the game.

#### ***I started as a guest, do I need to register a new account to change my name?***

No, after the Tutorial you can go to Profile settings to change your name and you password and keep your guest's progress.

#### ***Can I play on my phone?***

Yes you can! While Army Clicker is mainly focused on the browser-game experience and the Mobile version is not too polished yet, you are welcome to try both.

#### ***How do I level up?***

You will be earning XP during any Missions as rewards (*also Speed Rewards*) as well as within the first 60 seconds of Missions and after completing them you will also receive bigger XP rewards.

#### ***I want to level up quickly!***

Invest in XP gains - % XP for completing Missions, XP Bounty and similar attributes, which greatly boost your XP gains.

#### ***I see people with very high levels - How do i get there?***

By playing the game for a long time. Most of higher level players have played the game for a few years and counting.

#### ***What are levels for?***

Levels will allow you to unlock new content later within the game, which may be new materials, new content and even Clan Wars!

#### ***I died?! What happened and did i lose something?***

You only lost the Fuel which you used for the Mission, nothing else was lost. Try again! Maybe also try Trains for more Gold?

#### ***How do i avoid dying?***

If the Mission was too hard, better Health and Damage can help drastically as well as the higher values in Damage per Click and Damage per Second.

#### ***How do I get more Fuel?***

Fuel is always given upon leveling up and with Hourly and Daily Rewards. You can also buy more of it in the Shop or check the Facebook or Discord for more free Fuel.

#### ***How do I get an Achievement?***

Playing the game is a good start. Once you unlock the achievements, you are able to do what they ask and do actions towards their goals.

#### ***What are Valor Points used for?***

Valor Points are like Prestige Points - the more you have, the more better items you can unlock in the Shop. Usually one new item is unlocked per every 100 Valor Points.

#### ***What are Skulls?***

Skulls are premium type of currency which are used to purchase better and rarer upgrades in the Shop.

#### ***What is VIP and how do i get it?***

VIP status appears once the player has supported the game for at least 1$. This is a **once-time purchase** which will unlock all of the VIP items in the Shop.

#### ***How do I get Skulls?***

You are able to earn Skulls after every 10 Level ups and you can also buy them in the Shop if they are available. If you want to support the game, you are also able to buy Skulls via the Premium Shop.

#### ***I can download an auto-clicker - is that allowed?***

You can download them - yes, but Army Clicker has a strict **anti-third party program usage policy**. Army Clicker has **Auto-clickers** **IN THE GAME, For Pete's sake!**

### **Early Game Guidance**

#### ***Alright, I have just registered and I'm in. What's next?***

After you got into the game, the Tutorial will appear which is a really short intro to the game, although it may not explain much. So let's get into more details.

#### ***ATTACK - First Punches?***

What you need to know is that pressing on the ***ATTACK*** button **attacks/damages the enemy** and the ***GOLD*** button **allows you to get Gold**. Seems simple enough, right?

*By the way, **there is no need to click the button i**f you're lazy, **you can just HOLD it**!*

If you got that on the first try - well done! If not - let's give you a little bit more background.

You **click the *Attack*** button **to damage and kill the enemy** within the Missions. Once you did that, you get **Gold** - **which is used to buy upgrades from the Shop**, and **XP** - **which is used to level up and unlock more content**

#### ***GOLD - Gold, precious Gold!***

Haha, yes, you are able to earn Gold by clicking the Gold per Click button and use that Gold to upgrade your attributes from the Shop.

#### ***HEALTH - You are taking damage, huh?***

If you are not protected enough, the enemy can and will damage you. That is why Health is also important too. You can regain your Health back after **clicking the *HEALTH*** **button** and also by getting more total Health from the Shop.

As you can see Army Clicker in not fully-idle, but semi-idle from the start.

#### ***Wait a second. Did you just say 'semi-idle'?***

Yes, but the semi-idle can be easily turned into almost fully-idle as there are both Autopilot and Auto-clicker functions within the game itself, you just need to unlock them.

#### ***Okay, I got it - clicking (or holding the button to click). What's next?***

Next comes the interesting part. Shopping! Once you have earned enough Gold you can increase your Damage, Health and even the same Gold, so you could earn more and buy more expensive items from the Shop.

#### ***HELPERS - Who are those guys & girls on the left of the screen? Are they suppose to help me?***

Yes! Those are your fellow friends and helpers which help you during any Missions. If you treat them nicely and upgrade them, they will boost all of tyour Damage, Gold, Health and Ammo abilities **per second**!

If you have long Missions to go through, why not sit down, grab a beer, and let them do your job?

#### ***AMMO & POWER-UPS - Hmm, What's the "Ammo" button under the Health button? And what are thooose? Power-UPs?***

Yes and yes! The Ammo is directly linked to Power-UPs! Under the Health bar, you can see how much Ammo do you have and if you have unlocked the first Power-UP and you have enough Ammo during the Mission - BAANG! You just dealt some instant damage to your enemy!

The Power-UPs themselves vary from Damage, Health, Gold to Ammo, most of which give instant bonuses, despite Ammo, which may give higher Ammo per Click and Ammo per Second values.

#### ***Isn't this too much for a new player to handle? Clicking the buttons AND Power-UPs?***

Yes, at first, but it gets easier later, trust me! Once you unlock Auto-clickers and Autopilot, the game becomes a breeze, since you can set up how you want to click on Gold or Attack, and which Power-UPs you want to use.

#### ***RANDOM BONUSES - What are those floaty things on my Mission screen?***

Those are free Random Bonuses for you to catch! These may help you level up quicker or even get more Gold or XP when you need it the most. There are even Rare Random Bonuses which are unlocked from level 20, keep an eye for them too!

*There's even a secret Golden Goblin there somewhere, hehe..*

#### ***AUTO-CLICKERS - These things click instead of me?!***

Yes, Auto-clickers supposed to do that! They can be used individually for clicking separate buttons, or they can be used with Autopilot setup! The car drives itself - this is the future! Make sure you have enough Auto-clickers, which can be purchased from the Shop!

#### ***AUTOPILOT - So you're saying that i don't need to do anything?***

Well, you still need to do something. Adjusting your Autopilot is one thing according to the strength of the Missions, but sometimes Autopilot is useless if you want to do some quick clicks or change some stuff. Or you can set up your Autopilot to click on Gold if you have enough Health to last you for a long time.

#### ***RECYCLING - I want to be eco-friendly while playing this game - how can i do that?***

Clean diet, recycling, electric cars...oh, in the game? Well, umm, yea, we have Recycling! When every Fuel is spent, all the canisters don't go to waste, they go into the Recycling bin, which can actually give you rewards for doing so. Just make sure you reach the levels required to claim those rewards and you recycle together with your friends so you could get more out of Recycling together! Clean Planet, here we come!

#### ***DAILY TASKS - What are those Daily Tasks everyone is talking about?***

You explained them yourself! Those are Daily Tasks which appear daily and give off some smaller rewards every day once you complete them. Can't get more self explanatory than this!

#### ***CHESTS - OK, Ok, but what about those Keys?***

Keys are used for the Chests and are a little bit more harder to get, but Chests are really useful if you have saved up some Keys or bought some. Chests have a % chance to give you something great and you can even get Premium or VIP Items from the high-end Chests. Make sure you convert your Keys into the ones you need!

#### ***MODULES - I see a some sort of a slot on my Helpers - What's that?***

This slot is where Helper Modules go in. These are kind of 'stamps' or 'badges' you may have seen in other games, which can increase some attributes either by a X% value or by base values.

If the Missions are harder, you can put on some heavy weaponry Modules and get X% to Damage per Click to kill those pesky enemies! If you are more into love and peace, you can find Modules which help to get you X% more Gold per Click. You can even have Modules which would allow you to use up more Fuel per Mission and help you get rid of that grimy Fuel stock and put all of it into Recycling much quicker! Call that a clean helping hand!

*Maybe you might get even better Modules in the future? Who knows!*

#### ***CLANS - My friends are in a group and i want to join!***

And you can! That's what we call - Clans. You can join them via the Clan selection and if you're good enough, they will accept you what you are. If not, you can create one yourself and show them who's boss! After a while, if there's a Clan War taking place, you could hop into that too!

#### ***BOMBS & ANTIAIR - I want more explosions! Can i do that?***

We haven't paid our graphics guy enough to have a lot of animations in the game, ***sorry***!

We're kidding, we have Bombs (and Golden ones, too)! Once you unlock them, you start getting them with your Daily Reward or from the Shop. But don't think that if you buy enough Bombs, you can clear through the Missions like butter. *No way, Jose*!

AntiAir appears on the Missions once you reach Bombs, thus you need to punch your way through 35% of the enemy Health to be able to Bomb them! Take that, [*Insert the name of the person you hate here*] !

#### ***PLATINUM - What is this grey material in my hands? And why is it so heavy, hnnnnng?***

This is Platinum, which is heavier than Gold as you can see. Also heavier than feathers. Heavier and more expensive. You can even use our "Gold-to-Platinum Press" to get more of it! (*patent pending*)

On a different note, it acts the same as Gold. You buy stuff with it in the Shop. And you can use it elsewhere too, not like that cheap Gold. While you will have low amounts of Platinum once you unlock it, you'll get more and more overtime. Don't get too greedy now, you'll need loads of it in the future!

#### ***ARENA - PvP Please?***

We have Arena for that. While we do not suggest you to PvP in Real Life, you are free and welcome to with in the Arena with others. Just be sure you have loads Attack and Health attributes, which directly impact if you will die there or not! Oh and also you can also use Modules in there with the Arena Heroes to raise your power against others! Fight more, earn more rewards! Be sure to sharpen your sword often!

#### ***CLAN WARS - You mentioned Wars, right?***

Clan Wars, right! While they happen every 100 years, they still sometimes happen (sadly). And during them you have to fight to survive. Use your friends as cover and cannon your way through the other Clan defenses to get their bases and have more bases in the end to win the Clan Wars! You'll also get a ribbon for participation (fictional, of course) and some hefty rewards too!

#### ***BLACK-OPS - Missions are way too easy - i want something harder!***

Well you asked for it! Black-OPS have arrived! These are really hard and Fuel-wasting Missions which will consume both your time and tears. Be sure to have enough Damage and Health and you may just crack this cookie and get good items in return! At least you'll Recycle more!

#### ***RUBIES - Oh, those are shiny and red!***

And expensive too! Rubies are your key to success in Clans and Clan Wars, so be sure to collect more of them to upgrade your Clan with. Modules can help you get more of them quicker and Ruby Bounty helps out too!

#### ***OCTAGONS & M-CORES - Those are some T H I C C Modules!***

Well, if you call them like *that*.... We call them Octagons. And they are BIG - same size as 4 Modules. thus they only fit like a Tetris cube in your Module slots. You can also upgrade them if you have enough M-Cores, and you get them by destroying your useless Modules. Recycling, again!

#### ***DAILY BOXES - Can I boost my Daily Rewards?***

Do you like more stuff? Well if you have more of that stuff, then maybe we can exchange? Daily Boxes are one-time exchange places for your 'too-much-stuff'. Trade them in for Fuel or Skulls!

#### ***CARAVAN - My Shop is almost empty, but i want MORE ITEMS!***

Calm down. Relax. We got you covered. Every now & then, a Caravan passes by to bring you some limited edition and discounted items for you to buy, some in every Caravan. Oh, remember how i asked you not to be too greedy with Platinum? Here's a place where to spend it and upgrade your Caravan. The upgrades are costly, but they are great, trust me!

    Here are all of the topics with their unlock levels as well as the skills needed to reach and use these topics.
