This article explains how to use the "tricks" in Clash of Clans for Android using some game elements. It is important to understand that using actual "hacks" in the game, ie modifying the code to obtain extra resources or items, is impossible and that attempting to do so will usually only lead you to download viruses to your phone or computer. Never use sites or services that claim to provide you with Clash of Clans resources, as these are scams designed to get you to download malicious applications or to make you visit dangerous websites.
Steps
Step 1. Understand that it is impossible to cheat on Clash of Clans
Even though hundreds of websites and YouTube videos claim to know the ultimate solution for using in-game hacks, it's actually not possible to do so.
- Even if it were possible, using hacks on Clash of Clans (as well as on all other online games) would be illegal. Since game assets can be purchased for real money, cheating is tantamount to theft, which can lead to severe penalties and even imprisonment.
- Don't be fooled by comments in videos or on sites promoting cheats. They are usually created by fake accounts to encourage users to fall for the scam.
Step 2. Consider the repercussions of trying to use a hack
All services that claim to be able to modify the Clash of Clans code are, at best, deceptive; in many cases, they are also scams that steal your personal information and download viruses to your computer or Android device.
- Attempting to modify the Clash of Clans code using a third party service will almost certainly cause problems, whether due to malware or because your account has been suspended due to violation of the Terms of Service.
- At best, attempting to hack Clash of Clans is simply a waste of time.
Step 3. Don't rush
In Clash of Clans the journey is just as important as the final destination. While accumulating resources may seem boring and uninteresting to you, the reward is always worth the wait.
Step 4. Don't spend the starting gems
Clash of Clans gives you a fair amount of gems; even if you will have to spend about half of it to complete the tutorial, you will be left with the rest. You may be tempted to spend it right away on the first items you can buy, but remember that being thrifty is a great way to start playing on the right foot.
You shouldn't use gems to purchase resources or shorten construction times. Again, remember that patience is your best weapon when trying to increase your stash of gems
Step 5. Complete the Clash of Clans objectives
Achievements are the most profitable source of gems, because unlocking all three ranks of each will earn you approximately the equivalent of € 100 in gems. You can view the list of Clash achievements and the requirements to complete them here.
- Simply by connecting Clash of Clans to your Google Play account you will get 50 gems.
- Once you've unlocked an achievement, tap your current level in the upper left corner of the screen, then tap Get reward next to the goal and the gems will be added to your inventory.
Step 6. Remove obstacles when you have the chance
You can remove trees or rocks by pressing on them and confirming your decision. This way you can earn 0 to 6 gems.
- Some obstacles, such as trees, return every 8 hours.
- The rocks don't return, so consider removing them after clearing an obstacle that didn't give you any gems. This way you are almost certain to receive at least one gem from the rock.
Step 7. Build and upgrade the Gem Mine
Consuming the elixir to build the mine may seem like a strange way to spend the resources you have accumulated so hard, but the Gem Mine allows you to automatically earn at least two gems a day, even when not playing.
- You must collect gems periodically based on the level of the Gem Mine. For example, the level one mine can hold a maximum of 10 gems before stopping production. Once the gems are collected, production will resume.
- At the highest level, the mine can hold up to 18 gems.
Step 8. Use Google Opinion Rewards
This Android app allows you to answer short surveys to earn figures ranging from € 0.1 to € 1. By completing enough surveys you will have enough money to buy more gems.
- This is not a trick, but a relatively quick method of earning a small amount of money to spend on gems.
- You can download Google Opinion Rewards for free from the Google Play Store.
