Tips and Tricks

=Population=


 * Each villager you hire to work in your farms, lumber mills, etc. decreases the wait time by 1%. You can have a maximum of 20 of each worker type. It's better to buy in bulk if you can, provided you have the triads and food to spare.
 * Why is it better to buy in bulk? I don't see any discount for quantity. Please confirm if I am missing something. (build 0.99-02_28_13)

=Spells=


 * Use the tier 2 and tier 3 fire spells to give a boost to recharging other spells you need faster; every tile cleared by those spells counts as a match on its own.
 * The tier 1 wind spell may seem weak, but never underestimate the power of a single tile clear. Plus it recharges faster than any other spell in the game.
 * The ignite spell doesn't have to fit inside the tower outline. You can place the horizontal center of the "+" on the top or bottom row to get a triple blast if you need it. The portion of the "+" that is outside the outline just isn't used.

=Bosses=


 * The Elemental Lord is your first real challenge because you cannot clear horizontally in his lane. If only you had a way to clear an entire row of runes...

=Hotkeys=


 * Tired of spamming the + button to max out your resource gain? Shift+click will set it to the max you can produce at once.
 * Want to get a closer look at your city? Press Z to zoom in. Now those pesky thought bubbles should be easier to click on.
