Please note that even though you can deposit as soon as you start playing, I would advise you to familiarize yourself with the game. Personally I prefer the challenge of building a bankroll, it takes longer but you get a bigger sense of accomplishment when things go well, and if they go wrong you won’t lose your own money.When you login for the first time you will see your Home section, here you can check which bonuses you can win based on your activities. You probably noticed all the menus and options available, however, as a new player who doesn’t yet have any money to invest, you should focus on just a few of them.The first thing you should look into is your resources, which are displayed on the top right hand side of the page and are Energy, Euro, Gold, Local Currency.

The most important resource to start of with is Energy, basically it is used in all your other activities and without it you would not be able to do anything. The last three all work as currency and can be exchanged for one another, you can think of Euro as the global currency, Gold as the standard currency and the Local Currency as the currency used in your country. Because the game works at both local and global levels, just like in real life, having a global currency allows for easy international trade with other players.

Work

The first thing you should do in order to start making some money is Work, this is the fourth option on the menu to the left. When you click this section, you will be presented with the following formula:

(

Energy 1.00

+

Experience 1.00

+

Knowledge 1.00

)

/

3

=

Productivity 1.00

Basically, it reflects a cycle, in order to work you need energy, each time you work you get experience, knowledge you can increase by buying books, the higher these three attributes are, the higher your productivity will be. As a consequence, the more productive you are the more money you make, but for now we won’t pay much attention to this.

What you need to do now is have a look at the employment options displayed below this formula, chose your employer and click the Work button to the right of the employer description and start working. Just as in real life, your employer will be a fellow player who owns a company and needs workers to manufacture his products.
You will be allowed to work once everyday, and are awarded a work bonus whenever you play for 3 days in a row. By working once every day your productivity will increase and you will make a bit more money.
The same attributes that grow as you work, will decrease if you don’t, which means that if you only log in once or twice a week it will take you longer to make money. The upside to it is that all you need to do for now to ensure this doesn’t happen is login and click the Work button every 24 hours.

FightThis is the third option on the menu to the left, and it is, alongside work, a good way for starters to make some money. When you click this option you will be presented with a list of opponents (if no opponents are available you can fight a trainer). You are allowed to fight 10 times per day, and each time you win you will earn some money. If you fought against a trainer you will only get that money, however, fighting real opponents is a bit different.If you fight a real opponent and win he will become your referral, if you lose, you will become his referral. You can check Referralsunder the section of the same name on the left hand side menu. The referral has to pay 10% tax on it’s earnings to it’s owner. When someone becomes your referral they will be blocked for 24 hours, after that they will become free and are able to fight again.

You have the option to pay a fee and keep a particular referral blocked, as long as you keep a referral blocked, that person will keep paying taxes to you and remain your property. You can also sell your referrals for gold, but before doing it you should first take your time to get familiar with the prices.

Conclusion

Start off with these two activities, and don’t expect much profit for the first few weeks. Spend some time exploring the other options, and eventually you will have enough money to start a company and get more involved in the market and all the financial aspects of the game.
