If you have the game open but sitting idle then leave the screen either on your city or have a slot game open. There is a full breakdown of treasure box odds in a different post but in general smoking boxes = best for coins, steaming = best for charms, bubbling = best for passes and flaming = best for gems. Treasure boxes are a big part of the game, open them regularly. If you want to progress through the game as fast as possible then try to conserve gems to spend on Willie buildings. If you want to spend gems at parties then do that. The main thing is to have fun so play the game however makes you happy. Don't worry, buildings still pay coins and prizes if they are in your storage.ĭon't forget to collect the income and prizes from your city regularly, at least every 3 days. Have fun with the design of your city, if it's too full or you don't like some buildings put them in the storage tab at the bottom. You can buy buildings with building bucks or you can convert gems into building bucks. These will dramatically improve the payout of your treasure boxes and pay you coins and prizes regularly. Most important tip of all is to build up your city with the highest quality buildings, the Willie Nelson big buildings are best.
