Rena's Game Thoughts Share #2 (part2)

Pushing maps in this game is basically = making money. After all, map clues are bought at Kiki's shop. To unlock (upgrade the shop), you need Collection Rate and Gold. And to make money quickly, we need to talk about two systems—Fish Tank/Friends. Fish Tank (Fig. 1), the gameplay is to put caught fish in it. Instead of selling directly, it accumulates time to automatically produce gold. For a idle game, maybe this is the real gameplay w Below the fish tank interface, there's a ❓ you can long-press for instructions and current bonus info. Rare fish have extra bonuses, and putting the same type of fish (up to 5) also gives extra bonuses. Personally tested, the rainbow-grade white fish from the new map might be more expensive than the copper-grade purple fish from the old map, so I suggest setting the fish basket to sort by selling price, not rarity. Appropriately discarding high-priced fish for overall bonuses is quite advantageous in the late game. There's also a point often overlooked… you can feed the fish in the fish tank. Feeding also gives money and drops cookies (?). You can long-press it when you have nothing else to do. Friends (like Jump Jump in Fig. 2, it's so cute!), are key to fast progression. When they first appear, after talking, they give you a current map nest bait (you need to use it from your backpack). Fill their affection ♥️ to max, and they'll give you fishing buff items. Fill ♥️♥️ to max, and you can poke them infinitely to get nest bait. Unfortunately, friends need time to refresh, and there's no predictable pattern… you can only wait blankly. In summary, the way to quickly push to map 5 is: raise White Goose affection > speed up nest bait > upgrade equipment > upgrade shop > while waiting for new friends, go back to old maps to fish.
