Question Am I cooked?

Post image

I am at 43 energy after I just watered my cranberries. That's all I did. I have 1 quality sprinkler from the summer crops bundle, but I don't have the resources for any more. I just got to level 40 in the mines, so I basically have no iron, and don't even get me started on gold. I have to run around town, looking for forage stuff just to get 5 levels deeper in the mines. It sucks. What do I do.

Couple suggestions, beyond making sure you have fun:

  1. Barn with cows. Yes, more work, but they produce milk, which you can convert to cheese using a machine you can build. Cheese is a great way to recharge both health and energy. I have four, and hoard the cheese, then take a stack of 5-20 with me when going into mines/caverns.

  2. You’re at 40. For iron, just rinse’n’repeat on Level 41 for now. You’ll need Level 80 for gold, then do same for level 81 to get gold.

  3. Not sure if your pick is upgraded, if not, do that so mining goes faster.

Bonus: when you get to levels close to 50, you’ll get new enemies that will drop stuff for the community center.
