1. Invite More Friends-Just like other popular facebook games such as Frontierville, it really pays to have more friends. For backyard monsters, friends can speed up your construction. Having many friends also increases your chance of receiving free items and gifts that could help you in game.
2. Conserve your Shiny- Shiny is the premium currency in the game. Some items require you to use Shiny rather than the usual Twigs and Stones. It is very tempting to use your initial shiny to accelerate your building's completion. However be aware that Shinys can only be bought by money or through facebook credits.
3. Complete Backyard Monsters Quest Early On- The game has quite a number of quests that are arranged by categories such as buildings, monsters, etc. There's a lot to be busy early on in game and completing quest are a good source of experience points. Not only they bring experience point but as well as resource bonuses.
4. Like Backyard Monsters- As mentioned on the previous tips, completing quests brings rewards, one important task that you need to do upon starting the game is to "Like" the application. Though this is not explicitly implied in the game, it gives you an invaluable reward of 50 Shinys. Pretty much everything you need to accelerate building construction early on
5. Search and Destroy- it really pays to be agressive early on. The game actually allows you to attack other people on the later part of the game. Upon starting, you are only allowed to attack barbarians, or wild tribes. Usually they are a push over and are a good source of loot and experience points. So be sure to check out the map from time to time. Be wary though, there are some really heacily fortified camps, so be sure to assess the defenses first before attacking.
6. Standby for Backyard Monsters Cheats or Tricks- The last tip is a bit of a shameless plug but oh well. The internet is your best friend in getting ahead of this game. I will be posting news on cheats on this game if there are any, so be assured to read more stuff about Backyard Monsters in the future.
