Click Empire guide
Everything you need for the first hours of play, and a few habits that keep the empire growing fast.
Taps, combos and critical hits
Each tap on the core earns compute power (CP). Tap without stopping and a combo builds up to +80%; wait two seconds and it resets. Every tap also has a small chance to land a critical hit worth eight taps.
A tap is also worth a small share of your production, so tapping stays useful even when your machines produce billions.
Machines
Machines produce CP every second, even when the game is closed. Each new unit costs 15% more than the previous one, so it pays to spread your purchases: the list shows the share of production each machine brings in.
Hold your finger on a machine to buy several in a row, and use the x10, x100 and MAX buttons for bulk purchases.
Upgrades
Upgrades multiply taps, a single machine or all your production. Machine upgrades unlock once you own ten of that machine. Later, Data and Energy open upgrades of their own.
Daily rewards, quests and data packages
- The daily reward grows over a seven-day streak, up to eight times the first day
- Daily and weekly quests pay out hours of production
- Every few minutes a data package drifts onto the tap screen: take it for a minute of production
- On mobile, a short ad can double these rewards; it is never required
Offline production
While you are away, your machines keep working at half speed for up to 24 hours. Insight upgrades raise that to 75% and 36 hours.
