These are various buildings which can be constructed in Construction Sites. Each building has a different effect to the town, and some have several side projects to further their abilities. Return to front page.


Most of this is false ATM... Season 3 is here!

Each upgrade takes 6 AP. With a fort or better, you are protected from theft(?)

  • Note: You can only upgrade your home once a day, unless your town has fallen into CHAOS (less than 10 survivors after the nightly attack.)
