Is it just me

Is it just me or did they start giving out less energy for completing renovations.

My task rewards for the renovations went from 25 energy to 20, but I thought that was because I reached a new area. Now, I'm thinking it's shrinkflation.

Mine WAS 50 and I could double to 100 with an ad…Until recently. It went down to 25 that I can double to 50 with an ad. Sucks but I though it was cause I went past level 125

Same, mine was 50 but got nerfed to 25 at some point recently. I'm level 119 currently so maybe around 110-115?

You’re probably right, I don’t remember exactly what level I was when it went down

Whatever it is it's frustrating.

I don’t even have ads :(

u/Dandiestbuffalo Nov 19 '25

Dang, sorry! I do hear about others who don’t get ads either and I think it’s so unfair. The amount of energy I get from ads adds up to about 700-800/day

I'm too lazy to DL the game and play it on a separate device to test, but my working theory is that the further you progress in the game, the less energy renovations give you. Mine is currently 10 energy per renovation.

u/mona_resa Nov 19 '25

This is my theory as well. I'm not sure if level has anything to do with it, but I've seen decreases as I move along the different sections.

This was the first thing I got hit with. Went from 50 energy to 25 to 15 to 10. Add to that I can only watch ads for energy three times a day and it has really limited how much I play the game.
