Micropolis, like most idle games, is about settings the stage for your profits to come in before you leave the game. We will show you how to do that in our Micropolis cheats, tips and tricks strategy guide!

Complete your tasks!

While it may not seem like it at first, Micropolis actually features a length city building campaign. To keep yourself on track, it is best to follow the active tasks. You can see your task list at any time by tapping the star at the top left corner of the screen. You will always have four tasks active at any given time, so be sure to work towards at least one of them.

They will often have you upgrading a certain building to a specific level. Every time you complete a task, you will be rewarded with something special, whether that be plain old gold or a skill!

For added convenience, you can see a building’s next milestone indicated by the purple star at the bottom of the screen. Milestones are most often what you will need to bring the building to in order to complete a task.

Get the random bonuses!

Every so often when you are looking at one of your buildings, you will see a purple button appear. A meter around the button will start to empty out, while the money shown in the middle of button increases.

Wait until the meter is about to be completely empty, then tap to claim the money! The longer you wait, the more money you will earn, but watch out – if you wait too long the button will disappear!

This random event happens fairly often when you have the game open, so with some luck and good timing, you can make quite a bit on money out of nowhere!

Use couriers and workers effectively!

Remember that Workers boost a single building by a significant amount, and Couriers boost three different buildings with a weaker effect. Also keep in mind that these two skills cannot stack, so effective placement is the key to efficiency!

It is best to spread the Courier across your middle-income buildings, while the Worker should be on placed on your highest profiting building. Space them out so that they are not overlapping to get the best effect!

Check your Supervisors!

Supervisors are even more permanent passive bonuses to your buildings, but first they must be equipped. You will sometimes gain them upon leveling up a building, so keep an eye out. Each Supervisor is exclusive to that building, so do not worry about having to spread them around to each of your buildings.

That’s all for Micropolis! If you have any other tips or tricks to share, let us know in the comments below!
