FAQ

How do offline earnings work in Idle Medieval Tower Defense?

When you close the game, your towers continue to defend against enemies at an accelerated rate. The resources earned during this time are calculated based on your current defenses and their efficiency. Upon returning, you'll receive a summary of resources gathered while away.

What's the best tower combination for beginners?

For new players, a balanced approach works well: start with a few archer towers for range, add some barracks to slow enemies down, and include at least one wizard tower for dealing with special enemies. As you learn the game, you can experiment with more specialized layouts.

Can I reset my progress for bonuses?

Yes, the game features a prestige system that allows you to reset your current progress in exchange for permanent bonuses that make subsequent playthroughs faster and more efficient. Timing these resets strategically is a key part of long-term progression.

How often should I check back on my idle game?

While your defenses work continuously, there is typically a cap on resource storage. Checking back every few hours allows you to spend accumulated resources and prevent them from going to waste once storage limits are reached.
