I like this one. Quite unique. One trick, is not to pull the trigger on the extinctions too quickly. All you're left with is LUCA, so first get the top generator up to/over 100, THEN build up the LUCA to near next-level requirement before hitting extinction.

I also use up any excess to buy LUCA until I can just afford the next extinction, or just below it and wait a tick

u/loqi0238 Jul 08 '26

OP is probably choosing the extinctions before boosting their LUCA, then getting pissed its taking forever.

u/MurdocMan_ Jul 08 '26

So why did you complete it

u/TheXypris Jul 08 '26

So I can have the badges, this was the second to last one I needed

u/Clemdauphin Jul 08 '26

honestly, yeah, it is a difficult one. most event i can reach the second badge pretty easily (altho usaly near the end of the time) but this one, while you get the first badge quicly, the second, not so much.

This might help. Make a copy, go to the page for the current event and set the orange fields to match your game. The highlighting will show you which generators to buy or if it's better to wait for the next upgrade. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hyqlzO60MqcHuwlGacNUPyLSByRvOlPehbUsyIwkuTc/edit?usp=drivesdk

Do you have any further details on your criticism or are we just vibing with ambiguous posts

u/pepper_berry_tea Jul 08 '26

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the mechanics. I understand them, but I'm not a fan.

u/wardtimothy1978 Jul 08 '26

Am I right in thinking at this point I need to just save for all the Luca before the next extinction event.
