The three markets
#The Golden Wool Market sells individual Ancient cards, coins, Golden Hay, Ascension Crystals, Legacy Gems, Ancient Adamant, and extra slots. It is where you choose the Ancient card you want.
The Llama Mark Shop sells promo cards, titles, and solo raid keys. It is the place to buy more attempts for solo raids. The Black Market is a rotating coin shop with Transferable XP, Llama Marks, Ancient Adamant, grade 10 finish variants, Glaze, and Hourglasses. Stock changes over time.
Work and idle income
#The clicker llama earns coins on tap. Hired work llamas earn coins on their own and keep working while you open packs, fight in the Arena, or are away. Golden Hay upgrades raise the passive output and make offline income more valuable.
The game calculates offline earnings when you return. A long break still moves the economy forward; it does not reset the work llamas.
What to spend first
#Early on, spend coins on packs and on the cheapest work upgrades. Packs expand your Arena options, and work upgrades compound. Save Golden Wool for an Ancient card you will actually use, not for the first card in the market.
Save Llama Marks for prestige upgrades before cosmetics. A permanent upgrade improves every future run; a title only changes how the profile looks.
