Cargo King – Tips and Cheats: The Strategy Guide

Cargo King is a new puzzle game for the iOS and Android. Your goal, simply put, is to stack as many boxes as high as you can on the back of a truck. This gets harder and harder as the stack gets higher and higher; however, the multiplayer/social connection element of this game is more than enough to keep people coming back for more. Read on for some tips and tricks for Cargo King!

Stack the boxes as close to center on the previous box as possible. You will know that you have done it right when you get a “pinpoint accuracy” bonus on the game. The more accurate your drops are, the less the stack will wobble around each time you drop a new box, therefore making it much easier to stack them really high.

However, if your aim sucks too much to do pinpoint accuracy every time, at least balance out your box positions, alternating between a little to the left and a little to the right so that overall the stack maintains a good balanced center of gravity. This won’t be as easy to get a super high score on, but it will still be fairly easy.

Wait around for a silver box with a heart in it to show up, then drop it and land it successfully and you will earn yourself a free heart. Also, if you set the time ahead in the game by half an hour, you will earn a free heart. However, you have to go to the heart store and click for your “free heart” rather than just automatically having it go to your account.

Go to the “free stuff” area to get a ton of free coins, especially by hitting the button to watch a banner for free coins. Another way to load up on coins is to match three of the same shape in a row on your cargo stack, as any time that you match three in a row you will earn ten coins as a bonus. Sit and wait for the right shape if you need to.

You can earn coins for other stuff too. The as-previously-mentioned bonus for pinpoint accuracy will earn you about 10 bonus coins, and so will the “breakneck speed” bonus, which will show up when you hit four consecutive blocks without having them fall or without delaying the drop and letting the crane scroll past.
