Rule 1
Goal and core loop
Deal three cards, collect useful rewards, and finish houses one stage at a time. Completed homes earn rent and move you toward the next lot, neighborhood, and redevelopment lap.
- Choose Standard, Big, or Mega and deal a hand.
- Bank cards, Tickets, Tokens, and other rewards shown in the result.
- Open My Lot to build or repair the active house.
- Collect rent, protect your properties, and respond to rivals, goals, and events.
Rule 2
Your three currencies (and navigation)
Three currencies run the game, and each has its own wallet and its own job. TICKETS deal cards: every hand at the Card Table costs Tickets, and they refill over time. TOKENS are your money: they pay for building, repairs, Shop offers, bail, attacks, and every other price on the map. CHIPS are bonus coins: they only pay for the Bonus Wheel and mini-games.
- Tickets are Card Table energy. Tokens are the main spendable resource for building, repairs, Shop offers, bail, and other prices. Tokens never pay the Deal cost.
- Chips belong to Bonus Games. Property Value records construction progress and is not spendable. Your Card Album holds build, protection, mischief, collectible, and utility cards.
- Use Cards for the Card Table, My Lot for construction, My Block for the neighborhood view, Bonus for the wheel and games, Goals and Daily Bonus for rewards, and Menu for My City, Team, Events, Shop, Profile, Settings, and this guide.
- The Progressive Jackpot and current jackpot tier appear on relevant jackpot gameplay surfaces. They describe jackpot progress, not spendable balances.
- All resources are virtual game items with no cash value. Gameplay buttons may still use the normal verb cash out when you bank a mini-game pot.
Rule 3
Tickets, deals, and refills
Every player starts with 125 Tickets. Standard, Big, and Mega deals cost 1, 3, and 9 Tickets. A deal never spends Tokens.
- The recovery clock grants 50 Tickets plus 5 more for every completed neighborhood, every 25 minutes, regardless of your balance.
- While the game is active, recovery has no live wallet cap. One return from an away period can add at most 200 Tickets per away period; 200 is not a wallet cap.
- Earned Tickets are uncapped. Wheel, card, ad, and steal rewards do not reset the 25-minute recovery clock.
- The notification ‘Your Tickets have been replenished. Come play a hand!’ means the current away period has reached its 200-Ticket catch-up limit; it does not mean your wallet is full.
- Hold Deal when auto-deal is available. It stops safely for too few Tickets, jail, a full-screen result, an interruption, or another blocked hand.
Rule 4
Cards and immediate rewards
Each dealt card resolves its listed purpose. Build and protection cards bank in the Card Album; specifically listed three-card combinations can open their matching action, while single cards may still advance meters or collections.
- A Golden Work Ticket immediately awards 1, 3, or 9 Tickets for each copy dealt on Standard, Big, or Mega. Multiple copies in one hand multiply that award and also remain banked.
- Every four City Permits auto-convert to one Chip. Every four Bonus Blueprints also auto-convert to one Chip. These set rewards stay flat at one Chip and do not scale with wager.
- A Chip conversion consumes those four cards and respects the 30 Chips limit. Open the Card Album to see current quantities, stage needs, and card descriptions.
- A Ticket reward is Card Table energy; a Chip reward is Bonus currency. Their names and wallets are intentionally separate.
