During the game, you can benefit from special advantages called "bonuses".
Most of these can be activated with gold, and several can be earned, mainly by playing cards, but also by taking part in special challenges or contests on Discord, for example.
Also known as "Boosts"
This boost enables you to produce +25% of wood/clay/iron resources during its active period. | This boost enables you to produce +25% of crop during its active period. |
The duration of the boosts depends on the speed of the world:
for example, it is valid for 5 days on a world with speed x1, and for 3 days on a fast world.
These boosts can also be temporarily offered for the duration of the game in the "Great Deals" tab.
You can activate more queue slots for constructions, so you don't have to wait for a construction to finish before starting a new one.
Secret Adventure
While it's not a lasting bonus, the Secret adventure allows you to complete more adventures than your opponents, and therefore potentially earn more experience and loot.
Extra Building Ground
It allows you to expand your village by unlocking a new building site (and you can use 2 per village).
To use this bonus, just click on its image in the hero's inventory.
The additional building slot(s) will appear in place of the mountain, at the bottom right corner of your village, as shown below:
Note that even though the new locations appear to be outside the village, your enemies won't have direct access! The future buildings will be well protected by the wall or palisade, just like all the others.
