Clicker Heroes – Tips, Tricks, Cheats, How To Beat, and Strategy Guide

Clicker Heroes is an old browser game, an idle RPG/tapper game, that has recently been released for the iOS and Android. This game, which inspired other entries such as Tap Titans, puts you and your tapping skills up against a nearly endless bunch of monsters. You can recruit a massive supply of heroes to do that, and then level them up as well. Read on for some tips and tricks for Clicker Heroes!

If you are playing the game on a mobile device, you can tap with more than one finger at a time. You can tap with as many fingers as you can fit on the screen, in fact. Make sure to close the menu when you’re tapping so that you can fit more fingers. 4 fingers should be easy with a smaller iPhone, six fingers with a 6+, or if you are playing on an iPad, all ten fingers if you can move them quickly enough.

After you hit level 10, 25, 50, 100, 125 etc with either Cid or with any one of your other heroes, you will have a special skill to unlock, and it’s usually a DPS doubler, so make sure to unlock them as soon as you are able. Usually these will make the difference between beating a tough boss and losing the battle, coming out of it with nothing.

Your characters will continue to earn you gold coins after you log off of the game. To maximize your earnings, purchase all of the DPS upgrades that you can for your heroes before you go offline, and go to the highest level that you have unlocked. When you come back, you’ll have a ton of coins that way.

Wanna get a bunch of gold right away instead of waiting? Set the time ahead on your phone or tablet and you will be able to do just that. If you set the time backwards, though, it will goof up to the timer, but that’s a good way to get a bunch of quick gold if you want to cheat.

Rubies are the premium currency of the game, and you can spend them on either permanent upgrades or on getting a little bit of instant gold. The higher your DPS is the more instant gold you’ll get from the rubies, although it’s generally recommended to save them up and hoard them for the permanent upgrades.

Want to earn more gems for free? Complete the achievements and then go to the achievement menu and claim them. If you have no claims yet, then go to the achievement menu anyways and see what you have to do in order to complete any of the future achievements. Most of them are fairly easy until you get to the high-star versions of them, at which point they will become insanely time consuming to complete.
