Tutorial - First steps in Goldentowns (Part 2)

When you have gone over that first little bump in Cashtowns and are actually starting to understanding the game mechanics you can move on to this step. This tutorial is the followup to this tutorial where I talk about the very first steps in cashtowns. But let's continue with the game!

In this cashtowns tutorial we want to expand our town to something like this:

This is where we're going in this Cashtowns tutorial

But how will we get there? 

Let's find out.

Tutorial - The City Hall

The City Hall is your main building in your Cashtowns town.The only purpose of this building is to produce unskilled workers (citizens if you will). But just because it only has one purpose doesn't mean that it is not important. In fact it's one of the most important buildings in the game and should not be neglected.

Without those new unskilled workers your town will never grow more then a couple of levels. You need new citizens to come in regularly because the old ones will die (not the initial ones).

When should I upgrade?

Tutorial - The market (The building)

First thing's first - this tutorial handles the market as in the market the building. Not the market where you can buy and sell raws. Now when we got that out of the way we can focus this tutorial on where and when you should build your first market. The market is the first building you should build in your town and is essential  for the start of your cashtowns town.

Where should I build it?
In the image above is where I think you should place the market and I think you will agree and these are the reasons for that:

Tutorial - Police station When & Where

This tutorial covers the police station which is one of the first administrative buildings you should build in your cashtowns town after the market and the school. When you build the police station you unlock the possibility to upgrade the market to level 2 and the houses that are covered by the influence which means more happiness - the key in cashtowns.

Check out part 2 here!

When you have registered your account in Cashtowns you start with 6 houses, 6 production buildings (one of each raw), 1 town hall, 1 Warehouse and 1 graveyard. Your main focus should be to get your houses to level 10 as soon as possible but you gonna have to see this as a long term goal and you have to develop you town in many different stages before you can achieve this goal. 

What should I start with?

1. The first thing you should do in my opinion is to start with the production of wood, stone, vegetables and food. Iron and clay is not needed in the beginning of the game.

Tutorial - School is important!

After some changes in the game where specialists changed from being trained in their respective buildings to being trained in the school the school became immensely important for every town big or small.

The school works a lot like the town hall with the difference that you train specialists (doctors, cooks, hookers, etc.) instead of unskilled workers (normal citizens). It takes the school 24h to train a specialist so you should plan in advance and be able to see when you need one. (Like everything else in cashtowns ;))

Nice drawing eh?

Tutorial - Houses and happiness is everything

Houses are the core of your town in CashTowns and should not be taken as anything else as the top priority. And with the new changes the admins have added it's more important then ever. Read about the new rules here. So here is some information that you need for developing your houses in your town.

Houses are the only buildings that can be upgraded to level 10. Without empty space in at least one house, you cant recruit new citizens. Every citizen needs a house to live in. The houses accommodate up to 20 citizens at a time, depending on the level. If you want to find the house capacity multiply the level with 2.
