STRIKE WHILE THE IRON IS HOT

The job description is simple: there's a coin in the middle, and every hit pays. Find your rhythm and the forge starts to heat up, and a hot forge pays better and hits harder. Just don't dawdle. It won't wait for you.

BRICK BY BRICK

From a humble blacksmith's hammer to a mint up among the stars, fourteen buildings are waiting. Pay up and each one takes its place in the world right away. They show up as ruins, because that's as far as the budget would stretch. Upgrades handle the rest.

Villagers stroll across the bridge, the caravan keeps on rolling, and every building sends its gold back to the coin. Fair's fair.

THE SKY ISN'T THE LIMIT. IT'S UPSTAIRS.

Sooner or later, the ground won't be enough. The world opens up into the Cosmos first, and then into whatever comes after the Cosmos.

FRIENDS DROP BY

Every now and then a familiar face might come across the bridge. Your friends drop by from time to time, and some of them grab their hammer on the way. Don't walk past without saying hello, especially if they're wearing a crown. You can't put a price on that.

BACK TO SQUARE ONE, HAPPILY

Prestige wipes out everything you've built, but it doesn't send you off empty-handed: Eternal Coins. Put them into a talent tree that makes the next run faster, and the one after that.
