In this guide, I show you how to make money in this game, step by step
Requirements
What you need for this guide:
- Your own Base
-> You can start with the one from the start, but for later you will need more space to make more
money faster - Reputation >= 1
-> Do not use reputation for base attacks! You will need reputation and the more you got, the more money you can make! I recommend just saving 5$ to pay for the case an attack is coming. - Aluminium Smelter
-> You will need a minimum of 2 Aluminium Plates (4 Aluminium Ingots)
-> For the Aluminium Smelter you will need 6 Ceramics, if you can´t find them, just buy them
from the clown (after his explosive mission) for 2$ per Ceramic - Cigarettes(Money or Tobac/Paper)
-> You will need a lot of them.
Either
-> Buy them. You can buy 20 for 5$ on any Bottle sign on the map, for the beginning 20
Cigarettes are enough.
-> You can craft them by planting Tobacco and making Paper from wood via Defibrator (in
build menu under “Production”)
For the beginning, I would just recommend just buying one pack because it is easier and faster to
get the 5$ than actually searching for Tobacco seeds and building everything you need. But of
course later on you can just craft them. - (Money)
-> As already mentioned, you can do this completly without spending money, but it is harder and
is going to take more time.
If you need money, just go begging, it will do the job.
How it’s done
The concept is pretty simple.
After getting all the requirements, go back to your base and build a(or more, depending on how much reputation you got) “Bum Shelter”. Press “E” on it, and assign a Creep to it.
Then, press “E” again and choose “Money”.
After 33 seconds, you will get 2.5$(if you don´t have the skill “King of the creeps”, if you have it you´ll get 5$) for paying one cigarette.
That’s it.
Even by not having the skill, and with buying the cigarettes, you will make 45$ profit per Cigarette Package.

Later on, I would recommend saving more creeps (build more reputation), build a lot of Bum Shelters so you can make a lot more money.
