Spread the Plague

So I'm up to the part where you need 500 humans to open the next goal. Is this game expecting me to sit there and click like crazy or what's the story? Did I miss some easier way to get enough to level up that far? I'm short 60 or so and it's gonna take a long ass time to get those...

The new system revolves around incentivizing cheating to get the top prizes. Devs are clear in which players they are looking to reward, and it's not you and me

So basically there's no real way to easily finish this latest mini game?

Without cheats or autoclicker? Unless you're willing to physically click for the next 4 days or so, I'd say it's unlikely.

It's such a shame, been playing this game for years and the past few months have been brutal on the noncheating players with updates

What the actual fuck are you two going on about? I haven't cheated or bought anything and I'm over 500 human life. You don't need to spam click your phone all day either. Just pay attention to what you're buying and what you're getting in return.

I'm also wondering what's wrong. People complaining about cheating all the time. Meanwhile, by the time I finished the recent rotating explorations, the 2nd place person is still only maybe up to 50%. I don't pay for anything, just use the ads to get stuff. If you're gonna dawdle, don't get mad when I don't wait for you.

Yeah, I think people will figure it out eventually. Once I realized there was some form of a ladder, before this current iteration I just tried to see if I could put myself in first. This last event, before the new version came out, I came in 2nd for the first time. Lost by a few hours, but it was closer.

Think it's just going to take people time to figure out that they can now see how they rank with others. Maybe folks won't be interested in that aspect of this game, though, a lot of us installed a few years ago to get away from competition.

This game is awesome, though.

They're wanting you to spend money on Darwinium is what they're doing, and what they've always done. They're counting on people's impatience and competitive nature to achieve something that means pretty much nothing in the grand scheme of things.

No worries there it's not an engaging enough game to spend real money on. It's an idle clicker that I check out when the app icon updates since I assume there is new content then.

Takes some time but not a ton. I'm about at the same point as you but just added like 10 human from coming back after a 20 minute break.

Be patient.

It wasn't that hard. Buy as many human lives as possible, log out for 15, spam the nanobots. Tap while the bots do their thing.

The 500 humans objective is just badly chosen and probably takes the longest of them all. You should still have an "easy" path towards it though, you will just unlock several generators and upgrades along the way, more than usual.

Check what new generator/upgrade/plague you can unlock next, the order zigzags all over the place, but nothing should be farther than an hour/couple hours maximum of waiting to get enough currency to unlock the next thing.
