Laysara: Summit Kingdom – How to Make Money (Beginners Tips)

Money Making Tips for New Players

Build on pause – you’ve got infinite time to fix cashflow issues until your treasury runs out. This should help a lot while you organise your production chains and economy.

I’d also say think of the game more like a puzzle than a city builder at first – you need to make the most of limited land and be as efficient as possible until you tier up your research level.

Don’t build too fast or anything you don’t need – the maintenance costs are brutal to begin with, and things like walls or higher level roads will crush you, so keep it simple. You can definitely get a decent population of peasants and artisans with a stable economy before you push for the monk tier – as you noted, the academy is one of your first real progress gates.

Artisans pay more income than monks or peasants, 3g vs 2g, Build them all efficiently and close to the food market to begin with – I build them all around the market minus one building, which allows for a road to reach the market and leaves you 2 free 1×1 spots for a prayer shrine and a decoration.

Honey and the chicken coop are very easy and efficient sources of early food; build them around the edges of your mountain tier as efficiently as you can, using a distributor if you need to ‘jump’ from the edges back to town.

Finally make sure you’re not going into worker or yak debt – the worker shortage penalties are extreme. Oh and don’t forget you can pause production on anything you’re not using, this can be useful to block out locations for buildings you can’t quite afford to use yet or don’t need yet.

If you have 100 unemployed that isn’t worker debt, the debt situation is when you don’t have enough people to work all the required jobs – when this happens the game taxes you very hard with a penalty.

If you have 100 people unemployed you probably have too many workers of a certain type – without seeing your game its hard to know where the problem is but are they all getting food or other needs met? And are they all providing donations? You can see this when you mouse over the economy menu on the top.

There are two kinds of ‘worker debt’. First is importing in workers from outside your city if you don’t have enough population. Second is if a house isn’t getting all its demands due to a shortage, then there is a form of welfare given to them to compensate. Both are not well explained in the tutorial.
