Tip 1: First and foremost in this game is offense. At first, all that you will have is your troops. The troops can be trained in the troop shop, and then they will hop onto the minivan, ready to go to other camps and wreak havoc. Upgrading the troop shop will earn you new troops to train, as well as more troops per training session, but to use all of them in battle, you have to upgrade the minivan.

Tip 2: Defense towers are extremely important for defending your camp, especially because there is no form of walls that can be built. Spread your towers out so that you can defend your whole base, but at the same time, make sure that your treehouse is the most heavily defended building of all. If the treehouse is destroyed, you lose. If it's not, then you're likely to win.

Tip 3: You have many ways of earning free gems in this game. Watch out for the gift boxes to appear in your stage. Blue ones are free, while red ones, which are far more valuable, can be earned after watching an advertisement video. Clearing out trees and grass can earn you free gems, as can completing the various goals.

Tip 4: Test your troops and your battle strategies in the campaign mode first. These single-player modes pit you against computer-controlled camps, so that you can test out your battle strategies. Once you're confident of your tactics in this area, then go to the multiplayer mode and start playing against other players and destroying their camps to move your rank up.

Tip 5: Always keep your treehouse upgraded. When you upgrade the treehouse, you unlock not only new buildings, but new upgrade levels of buildings that you already have, and the ability to buy more of the same building. Plus, an upgraded treehouse will be harder to destroy, and it will be able to hold both more coins and more energy.
