We all love a good idle game
from time to time, don’t we? Good thing there are new and good ones coming out
all the time, like Swarm Simulator: Evolution. In this game, you breed
humble Drones to gather meat and eventually harness that power to do all kinds
of crazy things like travel through time and evolve to higher forms of being.
In order to get to these late-game points though, you need to be a good little
drone and manage your colony optimally. Here’s exactly how to do that:
Adjust your quantities
Swarm Simulator is all about using
your gathered meat and hatched Drones to purchase all kinds of other bugs, like
Queens , Locusts, and more. If you want to
truly maximize your purchasing potential though, you shouldn’t just buy as much
of any one bug or item at every opportunity.
Although
the game offers by default to spend all of your gathered resources on buying as
much of any one thing as possible, this isn’t always the best idea. To avoid
this, you can the purple button in the bottom left of the screen to adjust your
quantities. Doing this can allow you to purchase the bugs you need while
keeping any resources you need to bank in tact.
Always watch the ads (or pay)
Each
time you return to Swarm Simulator, the game gives you an overview of
what you earned while you were away. While you’re on this menu, you can opt to
watch an ad to suddenly double your earnings, or visit the store to buy an
in-app purchase to remove the ad-watch option and get a permanent doubler of
all your earnings.
No matter how you
choose do to it, make sure you double your earnings at every opportunity. It’s
simply a waste of time not to. Even if you hate ads, opt to double yourearnings and just put your phone down while the ad plays. It’s worth it. Trust
me.
Follow the arrows
As
more and more things open up in Swarm Simulator, it might be a little confusing to
know exactly what to spend your resources on. In general though, it’s a good
idea to give permanent buffs to your production infrastructure wherever
possible. This means investing in “Twins” and “Faster” upgrades rather than
trying to tap out units all the time.
An easy way to know
whenever any of your infrastructure is upgradable is by looking at your bottom
menu bar for arrows pointing upward on any of the buttons. These arrows
indicate that you can upgrade your production rate or reduce the resources
needed to generate units, both of which will then let you progress in the game
faster permanently.
Tap the golden bugs
Speaking
of permanent upgrades, Swarm Simulator also
gives players the ability to squish little golden bugs. These may not seem all
that great at first, as squishing individual golden bugs gives you small
consumables that can give little boosts to your Swarm temporarily, but
consistently squishing golden bugs can also give you some sweet permanent
upgrades.
Once you squish your first ten Golden Bugs, you
can select from one of four upgrades that do things like permanently increase
your earn rates, hatch rates, or even Golden Bug appearance rates. So make sure
you squish away to make sure you maximize your potential in Swarm.
