CityVille Factory and Premium Goods

By | Published March 11, 2011
CityVille Factory

The new factory in CityVille.

One of the newer kinds of buildings in CityVille is the Factory (also known as the Goods Factory). This factory adds a new type of commodity to the game, premium goods. Premium goods are produced here and can be used in any of your businesses, providing a 10% bonus to collections.

Getting Your Factory Started

You’ll find in in your inventory and can place it anywhere in your city, but it takes up a very large footprint: 6×6 squares or one-quarter the space of an expansion. Once you place it and do the initial construction, you’ll need to finish the building. You’ll need 10 each of the following items, which you earn as gifts from friends: Robotic Arm, Safety Goggles, Lunchbox, Work Uniform, and Hard Hat.

Running Your Factory

To actually produce premium goods, you need to ask friends to take on jobs in your factory. Unlike with Community Buildings, where the job assignments are permanent, these jobs expire after each factory shift and you’ll need to keep asking your friends to come back in order to produce premium goods on an ongoing basis. Here’s how the different jobs work:

  • Chill Charles – 25 premium goods per worker, 4 hour shift, 72 coin cost, potential of 150 premium goods.
  • Fast Paced Frances – 40 premium goods per worker, 8 hour shift, 92 coin cost, potential of 240 premium goods.
  • Diligent Denise – 55 premium goods per worker, 12 hour shift, 98 coin cost, potential of 330 premium goods.
  • Hardwork Harry – 75 premium goods per worker, 1 day shift, 124 coin cost, potential of 450 premium goods.
  • Taskmaster Tom – 90 premium goods per worker, 2.1 day shift, 142 coin cost, potential of 540 premium goods.

After you select the kind of job/shift you want, you’ll get a pop-up to invite your friends to take the job. The first 6 who respond within the allotted time will take the job and get a coin bonus. At the end of the shift, you’ll get premium goods for each of the workers (up to the maximum of 6 workers). When the job ends, you can collect the finished premium goods at your factory and start the process all over.

Premium Goods Bonus

CityVille Premium Goods Counter
The premium goods, shown with a purple box, have a separate counter in the goods section at the top of your game window. Whenever you have premium goods, they get used first when re-supplying your businesses. If you don’t have enough premium goods to re-supply, the business will get some premium goods and some regular goods.

Premium goods provide a 10% bonus, similar to the bonuses you get with decorations. However, the bonuses from premium goods do not stack or compound with decoration bonuses. Instead, they are added on top of any bonuses provided by decorations. So if you currently get a 50% bonus from decorations around your business, using premium goods will yield a 60% bonus.

Are Premium Goods Worth It?

Assembling your factory takes a fair amount of work, and continually inviting friends to take on new production jobs can be a bit of a chore. Although premium goods provide a 10% bonus, all the effort required to produce them may not be worth it. Let’s look at one example using one of the most profitable businesses in the game: the Tower Eats Restaurant.

Normally, a Tower Eats yields 900 coins at collection time and consumes 165 goods. So using 165 premium goods on this business (requiring an 8-hour or longer factory shift) will yield an extra 90 coins in profit. That’s not very much considering the time and effort involved to produce those goods. You’ll get coins faster just by visiting your neighbors.

CityVille Visitor Center

By | Published February 23, 2011

There’s another new quest available in CityVille called Open for Visitors. This quest is given to you by Samantha and becomes available at Level 15. The quest is to build and staff a Visitor Center, which is a new Community Building in the game. The building appears in your inventory instead of the Build Menu. It requires 5 builds to complete and requires 4 staff members. Once built and staffed, it allows an additional 230 population.

Open for Visitors CityVille quest

One subtle change with the new Visitor Center is that when you select Hire Friends to staff the building, Zynga prompts you first to invite non-CityVille friends to staff the building. If you’d rather invite friends who are already playing CityVille, just click on the Recommended Friends tab.

CityVille Visitor Center Invite

Click on recommended friends to get a list of people already playing the game.

Once your Visitor Center is complete, it will provide interesting statistics about your city, including how much space it takes up, the total value of the city in coins, and the total number of residences and businesses that you have. Friends who visit your city will be able to click on it to see the details of your city as well. A second tab, called, Top Visitors, will show which of your friends have been helping out with your city the most.

CityVille Tower Eats – Is it Worth It?

By | Published February 7, 2011

As you start gaining levels and earning coins in CityVille, you’ll begin to explore some of the more expensive businesses available. One of them has probably been staring at you for a long time, way off on the far right side of that scrolling menu. It’s the Tower Eats business, and with a cost of 1 million coins, it’s one of the most expensive in the game. But is it worth all that expense? In a word, yes. But only if you fully maximize the building with lots of decoration bonuses. First, however, let’s look at the quick stats for the building:

  Business Cost Earnings Supply Earnings per Good
Tower Eats 1,000,000 900 165 5.4

As you can see, it may be an expensive building to purchase, but the return is impressive at 900 coins per collection. It consumes 165 goods each time you supply it, so the earnings per good invested is 5.4, which is one of the best in the game. But where the Tower Eats also shines is in Earnings per Energy. Remember that each business costs you one energy point per collection, and the 900 coins earned per energy point invested is very high.

But where the Tower Eats shows its full potential is with the possibility to fully maximize its earnings through decorations. Because it’s a 4×4 building, it’s possible to surround it with decorations and enhance its earning potential through bonuses. In fact, it’s possible to achieve a 322% bonus, leading to a potential earnings of 3,795 per collection or an earnings per good invested of 23. Depending on the population size of your city and your flow of goods, it would be possible to earn back your initial investment reasonably quickly with a properly decorated Tower Eats business.

CityVille Warehouse Guide

By | Published February 4, 2011
CityVille Warehouse

The new CityVille warehouse building lets you store seasonal stuff you don't want anymore.

CityVille just introduced a new building in the game that many players will appreciate. It’s the CityVille warehouse and it’s available to anyone who has reached level 12 in the game. The warehouse will allow you to store all of those odd items you don’t need but don’t want to throw away, such as seasonal decorations. Here’s a quick guide to how the warehouse works.

First, once you reach level 12 you’ll get the new warehouse quest and the warehouse will appear in your inventory. You can place it anywhere you like on your CityVille map. Because it doesn’t need access to roads or sidewalks, you can tuck it away in a corner or wherever it’s convenient. It will require a few CityVille energy points to construct it and then to finish the building you’ll need to get help from 3 friends. Once it’s complete, the warehouse will show up in your tool menu, where you can access it to place items inside. You can increase the storage capacity of your warehouse by asking even more friends to help you and the maximum storage capacity right now is 12 items. You can only have one warehouse in your city right now.

Monsters Galaxy Guide – Frequently Asked Questions

By | Published January 29, 2011

Monster Galaxy is a fun and new game to play on Facebook. In this game, your goal is to tame a variety of monsters and teach them to battle as you work your way up to become a master Moga Tamer. Here are some frequently-asked questions about the game and strategy.

What is the best strategy for Monster Galaxy?

Well, for starters, one strategy is not sufficient enough to make you the best in the game. For you to become the moga master, you have to combine many different strategies. That being said, I have compiled below a list of the best tactics in playing Monster Galaxy.

  • Tip 1:
    You can tame more Mogas with the help of your friends. You can call your friends in and ask them for a bonus attack using whistle fruit.
  • Tip 2:
    Click on your moga dex to have different mogas in your team. This means that you can make some of your mogas take a nap at their home while having other batch of mogas ready to fight.
  • Tip 3:
    Visit your friend’s ranches on a regular basis and have their whistles harvested and their trees watered.
  • Tip 4:
    When you capture a new moga, you can post it on your wall at your profile. Once posted, the first five friends that will click the moga button will get a free whistle to call your new moga into battle. Additionally, every time someone clicks your post, you earn free XP and they get bonus attack.

How to easily catch super rare Mogas?

Catching super rare mogas is a pretty laborious task. Finding one is also hard, so if you come by with any of super rare moga, chances are, when you try to catch them they will escape. That is frustrating and unsatisfying to say the least. Good thing there is a working strategy guide to easily catch super rare mogas.

First things first, make sure that you are playing 2X to 3X less mogas against them.
When you attack them, use your bonus mogas until they’re health is at 15-30 of their full health. At below 10, your chances of catching the moga will significantly increase.

If your bonus attacks did not register a critical hit, use your own moga to attack. Get their health at around 5 or even lesser.
Make sure that your moga should at least be 2 levels down or 2 levels up than the moga you’re fighting.
Once your target moga is weakening, use the star seed and you’ll surely be able to nail them.
Add various moga trainers to your arsenal. This will help you get more bonus attacks by increasing your collection.

What are rarities?

In Monster Galaxy, there are 4 rarities. These types of rarities describes how hard is for your to catch the moga.
Here is the list of rarities from the least rare to the rarest:

  • Common
    You’ll run into lots of them when you are traveling
  • Uncommon
    A little less common than common. That’s it.
  • Rare
    Understandably, rare mogas are pretty hard to come by. They are pretty hard to catch too.
  • Super Rare
    Chances are you will never see one again if you ever see one. So, you better catch it!
  • Beyond Epic
    Beyond epic mogas are incredibly hard to find. To even add to that, their capture rate is about 10% — this makes them more rare than super rare. If you try to catch one of these, you better have many star seeds on hand because you do not want them to slip away!

How do I change my Moga Team?

Open the dex button at the top left hand corner of your Monster Galaxy home screen ( it is where your mogas are jumping around). After clicking on the button, you have to drag your selected moga from the list into your team slot place at the bottom of the dex.

How to get Grryph?

Go to the Monster Galaxy Fan page and scroll down the page. There you will see buttons such as share, report this app, contact developer, remove app, block app, etc. Click “Contact Developers”. After that, click “type of issue” and type your message. When finished, click send.

CityVille Bonus Coins Guide

By | Published January 25, 2011

Tips for Collecting Bonus Coins in CityVille

CityVille Bonus Bar

Keep this bar moving to collect bonus coins in CityVille.

Have you ever wondered about the bonus bar in the upper right corner in CityVille? This appears every time you collect experience, coins, rentals, goods and other gifts. Every time you collect 5 items within 5 seconds the bar fills up and advances to another level, providing you with extra bonus coins. You can use this bonus bar to your advantage to get some huge coins bonuses in the game.

This is a list of bonus stages and how much money you will earn. First of all, you need to have a continuous collection of items before you can make it on the highest stage of the bonus. You’ll need to collect five items before you make to the next stage.

To complete the first bonus stage, you need at least 5 items. The next bonus stage, that you will get a plus more than 30 coins is “Excellent”. If you don’t stop collecting, the next bonus stage is “Amazing” which gives you more than 100 free coins. Next is “Outstanding” more than 200 free coins. And if you don’t stop within 5 seconds you will earn more than 300 coins for “Holy Smoke” stage. If you think that’s not enough, continue collecting another 5 and you will be on the “Extreme” stage and higher than 500 coins when you stop.

You’ll need at least 11 houses, businesses, or crops to collect to be in Extreme stage bonus. Remember, that when you collect a business or a house, you need to click again the coin or exp before 10 seconds, or it will not count on the free bonus. The cityville will automatically pick the item for you.

If you don’t stop collection, the next stage is “OMGEEZERS” that could give you more than 600 coins. Then, “Unstoppable” will give you 800 plus. “Insane” bonus stage can give more higher than 1,000 free coins. And last stage is “Masterful” that can give you higher than 3,000 coins. It will go back to the bonus stage after you reached the Masterful stage.

Remember that to advance through all the stages and collect the maximum bonus coins, you’ll need to have plenty of energy stored up and that you can’t let five seconds go between picking up items (for some more tips on saving energy in the game, check out our CityVille Energy Cheats guide). It makes sense to plan out your strategy before you start collecting in order to maximize your chances to achieve the bonus. Another tip is to time your bonus collection with using friends who have visited to help with your city. When you pick up items that drop from helping friends, they count towards your bonus and don’t use up any of your precious energy in the process!
