The Garden

How plants work, what equipment does, and how to grow broccoli efficiently.

Plants & broccoli

Broccoli is the core resource in Nanogotchi. You earn it by growing and harvesting plants in your garden, and spend it to feed your Nanogotchi, buy items from the shop, and donate to your clan treasury.

Each plant must be watered a set number of times before it can be harvested. Watering requires waiting a cooldown period between each water — you can't water a plant twice in quick succession. Once a plant has been watered enough times, a harvest button appears.

Plant types

There are five plant types available in the shop. Each has different costs, water requirements, and broccoli rewards:

Wilting

If a plant isn't watered for too long, it wilts. A wilted plant can still be harvested, but the broccoli reward is reduced by 1. Growing and harvesting a wilted plant cures it.

• Without irrigation: plants wilt after 7 days without water
• With Irrigation Channel: wilt threshold extends to 14 days

Garden slots

Your garden starts with 10 plant slots. Each garden upgrade (purchased with Nano) adds 10 more slots, up to whatever level you've upgraded to. So a Level 1 garden has 20 slots, Level 2 has 30, and so on.

Garden upgrades

Three equipment upgrades are available for purchase with Nano. Each is a one-time purchase that permanently improves your garden.

🚿 Sprinkler — 500 broccoli

Unlocks a Water All button that waters every ready plant in your garden in one click. Without a sprinkler, you must tap each plant individually. This is especially useful once you have many plants growing at once.

💧 Irrigation Channel — 2 XNO

Reduces the water cooldown on all plants to 75% of normal. In practice this means your plants are ready to water sooner, letting you complete harvest cycles faster. It also extends the wilt threshold from 7 days to 14 days, making your garden more forgiving if you're away for a few days.

🏡 Greenhouse — 5 XNO

Adds an indoor growing area with up to 10 extra plant slots that are protected from wilting entirely. Greenhouse plants never wilt regardless of how long they go unwatered, making them ideal for higher-value plants you check on less frequently. Requires Level 8 to purchase.

🌱 Garden size upgrade — 0.5 XNO per level

Upgrades your outdoor garden to hold 10 more plants. The cost increases by 0.5 XNO with each level (Level 1 costs 0.5 XNO, Level 2 costs 1.0 XNO, etc.).

Seeds & growing

Seeds work like a free version of buying a plant from the shop. When you harvest a plant, there's a small chance a seed drops into your inventory. You can then plant that seed at any time without spending broccoli.

Seeds are particularly valuable for expensive plants like the Broccoli Tree — a seed drop effectively saves you 350 broccoli per plant.

Planting

To plant something, click an empty slot in your garden. You'll see the shop with available plants and any seeds you own. Select what you want to plant. The plant appears immediately and can be watered straight away.

Harvest cycle

Once planted, the basic loop for any plant is:

1. Wait for the water cooldown to pass
2. Water the plant
3. Repeat until the required number of waters is reached
4. Harvest — collect your broccoli
5. The plant resets and the cycle starts again (it stays in your garden)

Plants don't disappear after harvesting — they reset their water count and are immediately ready to be watered again for the next cycle.

Watering other players' gardens

When you visit another player's garden, you can water their plants. This doesn't cost you anything and doesn't affect your own garden in any way. The other player gets the benefit of the water count progressing on their plant.

This is a social feature — many players water each other's gardens regularly as a friendly gesture, helping everyone grow broccoli faster.

How to visit other gardens

• Click a player's name in the global chat
• Use the search bar to look up a wallet address or player name
• Click Visit on a player's profile card

To return to your own garden, click the Home button.

Your Character

How to hatch your Nanogotchi, customise its appearance, and unlock new items.

Hatching

When you first create an account, your Nanogotchi exists as an egg. To hatch it, you need to tap the egg enough times to trigger the hatching animation. Once the hatch begins, you'll be asked to choose your Nanogotchi's character type.

Character types

There are six characters to choose from at hatching:

What hatching unlocks

Hatching your Nanogotchi is a required step before many features become available:

• Feeding your Nanogotchi (the feed button only appears after hatching)
• Earning from the Loyalty Rewards pool
• Selling broccoli
• Receiving Nano payouts from levelling up

Customisation

Your Nanogotchi's appearance can be personalised with a range of cosmetic items. Open the Customize panel (the wardrobe button in your garden) to cycle through what you own and equip different combinations.

All items are purely cosmetic — they affect how your character looks to you and other players, but have no effect on gameplay stats.

Wearables

Wearables are bought from the Shop using Nano. Each category has multiple options at different price points:

Some items have a minimum level requirement — they won't appear in the shop until you reach the required level. Items you already own are always accessible in the Customize panel regardless of level.

Companions

Companions are small creatures that follow your Nanogotchi around in the garden scene. They can be bought from the Companions section of the shop, won from the spin wheel, or received as a gift from another player.

There are three types of companions, each with their own movement behaviour:

You can own multiple companions, but only one can be equipped at a time. Equip them in the Customize panel under Companion.

The spin wheel & mystery items

At certain level milestones, you'll be rewarded with a free item spin. A spinning wheel animation plays and you receive a random item from the shop's prize pool.

When does the spin wheel trigger?

The spin wheel activates on reaching Level 1 (your first level up after hatching), and then at every level where level % 5 === 3 — meaning levels 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, 28, and so on.

What can you win?

The prize pool includes all shop items that have a weight assigned to them. Rarer items have lower weights and are less likely to appear. Items you already own are excluded from the pool where possible — so the wheel will always try to give you something new.

Companions, wearables, and general items can all appear in the pool. The wheel respects your current level — items with a minimum level requirement higher than yours won't appear.

Mystery item

The Mystery Item is a special purchase available in the shop. Instead of buying a specific item, you pay a fixed price and receive a random item from the prize pool — similar to the spin wheel but available at any time. Like the spin wheel, it excludes items you already own where possible.

Economy

How Nano and broccoli work, where to earn them, and how the market and rewards pool function.

Nano (XNO) — what it's used for

Nano (XNO) is a real, feeless cryptocurrency that runs throughout Nanogotchi. Your in-game identity is your Nano wallet, and real Nano moves in and out of the game as you play.

Ways to spend Nano in-game

Ways to earn Nano in-game

• Selling broccoli — sell your harvested broccoli back to the game at the current market rate (see below)
• Monthly Loyalty Rewards — eligible players share a pool of Nano each month based on level and streak
• Community marketplace — sell your own custom items to other players directly
• Dead Air — solve the mystery within the time limit and reclaim part or all of your 2 XNO deposit

Broccoli (nanobeans) — how it's earned and spent

Broccoli (internally called nanobeans) is the in-game soft currency. It doesn't leave the game as real value on its own — but it can be converted to Nano by selling, and it's required for many in-game actions.

Earning broccoli

• Harvesting plants — the primary source. Each harvest rewards broccoli based on the plant type
• Buying broccoli — purchase up to 5,000 broccoli per day at a fixed rate of 0.002 XNO each
• Feeding streak bonuses — longer streaks give a multiplier that makes each feed more efficient

Spending broccoli

• Feeding your Nanogotchi — costs broccoli equal to your current level (minimum 1) per feed
• Buying plants — each plant type has a broccoli cost (20–350 depending on type)
• Sprinkler upgrade — costs 500 broccoli
• Clan treasury donations — donate broccoli to fund ship upgrades and missions

Selling broccoli

You can sell broccoli to the game for Nano at the current market price. The base price is 0.00001 XNO per broccoli, with a ±40% fluctuation that updates periodically. The current price is always visible in your garden UI.

There is a daily sell cap of 5,000 broccoli per player. This resets at midnight. You must have hatched your Nanogotchi and harvested at least one plant before selling is unlocked.

The shop

The shop is accessible from your garden via the shop button. It contains all purchasable items organised into categories: Hats, Hair, Beards, Shirts, Pants, Companions, General, and Plants.

Items are purchased with Nano. Payments are detected automatically — send the displayed amount to the payment address and your item will be added to your inventory once the transaction is confirmed on the network.

Item pricing

Prices vary by item rarity and type. Companions start at around 4 XNO. Wearables range from inexpensive common items to rarer cosmetics at higher prices. General items like the carrot, fence, and seasonal decorations have fixed prices.

Level requirements

Some items require a minimum player level before they appear in the shop. If an item doesn't appear, it may be locked until you level up. Items you already own remain in your inventory regardless of level.

The community marketplace

The community marketplace allows players to create and sell their own custom items to other players. Unlike the main shop which sells fixed official items, the marketplace is player-driven.

How it works

Any player can create a listing by uploading a custom item image, choosing a category (hat, hair, beard, shirt, or pants), naming it, and setting a price between 0.01 and 2 XNO. Once listed, any player can purchase it.

When a buyer purchases a listing, they send Nano directly to the seller's wallet address — the game does not take a commission. The item is then added to the buyer's inventory and can be equipped in the Customize panel like any other item.

Creating a listing

1. Open the community marketplace from the shop or menu
2. Click List an Item and upload your item image
3. Choose the category (what slot it equips to)
4. Name your item and set a price (0.01–2 XNO)
5. Submit — your listing goes live immediately

Loyalty rewards pool

Every month, a pool of Nano is distributed to dedicated players. This is the primary way active players earn real Nano from just playing the game consistently.

Eligibility

To receive a payout, you must meet both requirements at the time of distribution:

• Level 10 or above
• Feeding streak of at least 7 days (daysFed ≥ 7)

How your share is calculated

Your payout is proportional to your weight, calculated as:

weight = level + (streak ÷ 2)

Your share of the pool is your weight ÷ total weight of all eligible players. So a Level 25 player with a 30-day streak (weight 40) earns more than a Level 10 player with a 7-day streak (weight 13.5).

Pool size & timing

The Nanogotchi team will contribute nano to the pool on a monthly basis, funded by in-game Nano activity — item purchases, garden upgrades, and other transactions contribute to it over the month. At distribution, 80% of the pool is paid out and 20% is kept as a seed for the following month. Distribution happens automatically at the start of each month.

Additionally, anyone can donate to the pool. When donating to the Loyalty Reward Pool, you can enter a name, website name, description and link in case you want to use the sponsors tab as advertisement space. The top donator will be highlighted in the in-game menu.

NanoBot NaNFT 🤖 — how to get one and what it does

A NanoBot is a collectible NaNFT (Nano NFT) from the community-made Nano Bots collection on Nanswap Art. Each bot is a unique pixel-art character signed on the Nano ledger.

If you own a NanoBot on the same wallet you use for Nanogotchi, it is detected automatically and unlocks powerful passive perks for your garden. There is no activation step — as soon as the NaNFT is signed to your address, the perks turn on.

What it does in-game

• 💧 Auto-watering — a background job waters your plants for you every hour. When you return to the game, it catches up to 6 missed water cycles across your plants, and automatically harvests any that are ready.
• 🌿 Wilt protection — plants owned by a NanoBot holder never wilt, regardless of how long they go without water. You won't see the wilt warnings or the −1 broccoli penalty at harvest.
• 🎨 Displayed in your house — your selected NanoBot appears inside your home scene as a framed piece of Nano art. If you own more than one, you can pick which bot to show.
• 📜 Activity log — a NanoBot log tracks every auto-water and auto-harvest your bot has performed, so you can see exactly what it's been up to while you were away.

What is a NaNFT?

NaNFTs are NFTs on the Nano blockchain. Ownership is certified by Nano signatures — no gas fees, no smart contracts, and transfers are instant and feeless. The Nano Bots collection consists of 3,500 unique bots with 130+ traits, built by the Nano community for the Nano community.

How to get a NanoBot — step by step

1. Make sure you have a Nano wallet. If you're already playing Nanogotchi, you already have one — either the web wallet you created in-game or the external wallet (Natrium, Nautilus, etc.) you log in with. This same wallet will hold your NanoBot.
2. Fund the wallet with Nano (XNO). NanoBots trade on the secondary market, typically around 3–5 XNO (floor price varies). You can buy Nano on Nanswap itself, or send XNO you've earned from Nanogotchi to your wallet.
3. Open the Nano Bots collection on Nanswap Art. Go to nanswap.com/art/collection/nanobots. You can also tap the 🤖 info icon next to NanoBot in the Nanogotchi shop/menu — it contains a direct Browse NanoBots on Nanswap button.
4. Browse and pick a bot. Filter by traits (eyes, mouth, background, accessories) or sort by price. Click a bot to see its full traits, its rarity, and its current asking price in XNO.
5. Buy it. Click Buy. Nanswap will show a Nano address and an exact XNO amount. Send that amount from your Nanogotchi wallet (or any wallet you own) to the displayed address. Because Nano is feeless and instant, the transfer settles within seconds and the NaNFT is automatically signed over to the sending address.
6. Return to Nanogotchi and refresh. On your next login (or page refresh), Nanogotchi queries the Nano network for NaNFTs owned by your address, spots the NanoBot, and enables all the perks automatically. You'll see the bot appear inside your house and the auto-water log will start filling in.

Buying brand-new vs. from the secondary market

The Nano Bots collection originally minted at 4 XNO per bot (2 XNO in presale) on launch day. The mint has since ended, so all bots are now bought from other holders on the Nanswap Art marketplace. Prices are set by sellers, so shop around — you can often find a bot with traits you like below the collection floor.

Trading, reselling, and multiple bots

• You can own more than one NanoBot. In the Settings area of your profile, you'll see a NaNFT selector to pick which one is displayed in your house.
• You can resell your NanoBot on Nanswap Art at any time. Listing is done from the Nanswap site by signing a sale order with the wallet that owns the bot.
• If you sell or transfer your last NanoBot away, the in-game perks turn off on your next refresh.

Social

Chat, visit gardens, gift items, make friends, and hang out at the market.

Global chat & mentions

The global chat runs in real time and is visible to all players. It appears as a floating window in the bottom-right corner of the screen. You can minimise or expand it, make it fullscreen for easier reading, and switch between Global and Clan tabs.

Sending messages

Type in the chat input and press Enter or tap Send. Messages are limited to 200 characters. The chat keeps the last 100 messages in memory — older messages scroll away as new ones arrive.

Mentions

You can mention another player by typing @name in your message. If your name is mentioned, the chat tab shows a red notification dot to catch your attention even if the chat is minimised. The dot clears once you open the chat.

Chat rules

Messages are filtered automatically for offensive language and spam. Keep it respectful — the chat is shared by all players including younger ones.

Visiting other gardens

Every player has their own garden that others can visit. When you visit someone, you enter their garden scene and can see their Nanogotchi, their plants, and their equipped companions and customisations.

How to visit

• Click a player's name in global chat — a profile card appears with a Visit button
• Search by name or wallet address — use the search bar to find any player
• Click a character in the scene — if another player is in the same room as you, clicking their character opens their profile

What you can do in someone else's garden

• Water their plants — free to do, helps them grow broccoli faster
• View their profile — see their level, streak, and character
• Gift an item — send them an item directly from your inventory
• Add them as a friend

Returning home

Tap the Home button to return to your own garden at any time.

Gifting items

You can send any item from your inventory to another player as a gift. Gifting is permanent — once sent, the item is removed from your inventory and added to theirs.

What can be gifted

• Wearables: hats, hair, beards, shirts, pants
• Companions (snails, butterflies, orbs)

What cannot be gifted

• Default starter items (the items every player begins with)
• General items (plants, broccoli, carrots etc.)
• Items the recipient already owns

How to gift

1. Visit the player's garden or open their profile
2. Tap the Gift button
3. Choose the item from your inventory
4. Confirm — the item transfers immediately

The recipient receives an inbox notification letting them know who sent it. Gifted items appear in their Customize panel after a page refresh.

Friends

Adding someone as a friend bookmarks them in your friends list, making it easier to find and visit them quickly without searching each time.

Adding a friend

Visit their garden or open their profile and tap Add Friend. There's no approval required — adding is immediate and one-sided. They receive an inbox notification that you added them.

Your friends list

Open the friends panel from the menu to see everyone you've added. Each entry shows their name and lets you visit their garden in one tap. You can also remove friends at any time.

The market scene

The market is a shared social space separate from your personal garden. Enter it via the Market button. Unlike your garden, the market is a single room where all visiting players appear together — you can see other players walking around in real time.

What's at the market

The market contains several storefronts:

• Shop — access the main item shop
• Community Shop — browse and buy community marketplace listings
• Broccoli Market — sell your broccoli for Nano
• Seed Market — placeholder for future seed trading

Multiplayer in the market

The market uses the same room system as gardens — other players who are also in the market appear as characters you can see moving around. You can click on them to view their profile, gift items, or add them as a friend, just as you would in a garden.

The market also has a day/night cycle that reflects the current time — the scene looks different depending on whether it's daytime or night in your timezone.

Clans

Everything you need to know before joining a clan — including what changes when you're on a space mission.

What is a clan?

Clans are groups of players who team up to explore the galaxy, conquer planets, and compete on the clan leaderboard. Joining a clan unlocks the Galaxy tab, the ship, and all space mission features.

Clans have their own chat channel, a shared treasury funded by member donations, and a ship that can be upgraded over time. The more planets your clan holds, the higher your position on the leaderboard — and the larger your share when clan payouts launch.

Member slots

Every clan starts with 4 member slots. Conquering planets unlocks additional slots — one extra slot for every 2 planets your clan owns:

This means expanding your empire and growing your crew are directly linked — a larger roster requires you to hold more territory.

Creating & joining a clan

Creating a clan

To create a clan you need:

• Level 10 or above
• 1 XNO creation fee

Choose a clan name, a short tag (shown in brackets before your name in chat, e.g. [TAG]), and optionally upload a flag image (64×48 pixels). The clan name and tag must be unique across all clans.

Joining a clan

You can only be in one clan at a time. To join, a clan leader must send you an invitation. You'll receive it as an inbox notification — accept or decline from there. Once you accept, you're immediately a member and the clan tag appears next to your name.

Leaving a clan

You can leave a clan at any time from the clan panel. Your lifetime treasury contributions are forfeited when you leave. If you were the leader, leadership passes automatically to the highest-level remaining member. If you were the last member, the clan is dissolved and all conquered planets are released.

Inactivity removal

Members who haven't logged in for 14 days are automatically removed from the clan each night. The leader is never auto-removed. This keeps clans active and prevents a single inactive member from blocking a slot indefinitely.

Roles

There are two roles in a clan: Leader and Member.

Leadership transfer

If the leader leaves the clan, leadership is automatically transferred to the highest-level remaining member. There is no manual transfer — the only way to change leader is for the current leader to leave.

Clan chat

Members of a clan get access to a private Clan tab in the chat window. Messages here are only visible to your clan members — other players cannot read them.

A notification dot appears on the Clan tab whenever new messages arrive while you're viewing a different tab. The full message history is preserved and loads automatically when you open the chat.

The treasury — donating broccoli

The clan treasury is a shared pool of broccoli used to fund ship construction, component upgrades, and space missions. Any member can donate; only the leader can spend it.

Donating

Open the Treasury tab inside the Clans modal, enter an amount, and click Donate. Broccoli is deducted from your inventory immediately and added to the clan balance.

Treasury ledger

Every treasury transaction is logged and visible in the Ledger section of the Treasury tab. You can see all donations, mission costs, ship upgrades, and daily planet maintenance deductions with timestamps.

Planet maintenance

Each conquered planet must be manually maintained by any clan member within a 12–24 hour window each cycle. The cost is deducted from the treasury when you click Maintain on the planet. Planets that go unmaintained become vulnerable and can be conquered by other clans. See the Galaxy & Missions section for the full maintenance cost table.

Payout weights

The Treasury tab also shows each member's payout weight — a percentage based on their lifetime contributions to the treasury. This is what determines each member's share when clan payouts launch.

Ship upgrades

Your clan's ship is built and upgraded in the Ship tab inside the Clans modal. Only the clan leader can build or upgrade the ship. The ship must be docked (not on a mission or under construction) to make changes.

The ship has five component slots. Not all hulls have all slots — you unlock more slots by upgrading to a higher hull tier.

Hulls

The hull is the foundation of the ship. Upgrading to a higher hull unlocks new component slots and increases storage capacity. Hull upgrades preserve your existing components — you only pay for the hull itself, not your already-installed engine or shields.

Higher-tier hulls require your clan to own a planet in a specific ring before the upgrade is available.

Engines

The engine determines how far the ship can travel (range in light-hours) and how fast it gets there (speed in LH/hour). Swapping an engine is instant and costs only broccoli and resources — no build time beyond the initial install.

Shields

Shields protect against planetary hazards. Without a shield that covers a planet's hazard type, the ship is blocked from proposing a mission there. The Shields slot is unlocked by upgrading to a Cruiser Frame or higher.

Scanner

The scanner upgrades how many planets are revealed per scan. The Scanner slot is unlocked by upgrading to a Warship Frame or higher.

Cargo hold

The cargo hold determines how much of a planet's yield you collect on conquest, raid, or harvest missions. A higher-tier hold means more resources brought back.

Life on a mission

When a mission is approved by vote, your garden scene transitions to the ship interior. You'll see your clanmates' characters on the ship alongside yours. The ship HUD shows your destination, distance remaining, ETA, and engine status.

What to do before voting yes

• Water all your plants — you won't be able to water them during the mission
• Harvest any ready plants — same reason
• Check the mission duration — shown in the proposal. Longer missions mean a longer time away from your garden

Ship maintenance during missions

While traveling, periodic maintenance checks come up. Any crew member can perform them via a short button-sequence mini-game in the Overview tab. Missing a check slows the ship to 50% speed. Missing two checks stalls the ship entirely until someone fixes the engine. Completing a check on time gives a small speed boost.

Returning home

Once the ship arrives at its destination, any crew member can initiate the return flight from the Overview tab. During the waiting period the ship is docked and the crew is on the planet. The return journey takes the same time as the outbound trip. When the ship docks back home, you automatically return to your garden.

Galaxy & Space Missions

How the galaxy works, how to conquer planets, and everything that happens aboard the ship.

The galaxy map & rings

The galaxy is an interactive map accessible from the Galaxy tab inside the Clans modal. It contains 250 planets spread across four concentric rings. You can pan and zoom the map, click on any visible planet to see its details, and filter by ring, resource type, or ownership.

Only planets that are already conquered by some clan, or that your clan has scanned, are visible on the map. Unscanned, unclaimed planets are hidden.

The four rings

Outer rings offer far higher revenue weights but require more advanced ships, shields, and resources to access. Ring 4 planets have no resource yield — they exist purely for leaderboard dominance.

Hazards

Many planets have environmental hazards that your ship's shield must be able to handle before you can visit them. If your shield can't handle a planet's hazard, you'll be blocked from proposing a mission there.

Access requirements

Rings 2, 3, and 4 require your clan to have specific resources in the vault before a conquest or raid can be proposed. These resources are consumed on mission start. For example, Ring 2 planets require Rai Shards or Yap Dust — which you can only get by first holding Ring 1 planets.

Scanning for planets

Before you can target a planet, it must be discovered by your clan. Use the Planet Scanner in the Galaxy tab to scan a ring for hidden planets.

• Choose a ring (1–4) and click Scan
• The scan reveals 2–5 undiscovered planets depending on your scanner component level
• There is a 4-hour cooldown between scans
• Discovered planets are only visible to your clan until they are conquered

Mission types

There are three mission types. Each has a different cost, purpose, and outcome.

Conquest

Conquering claims the planet for your clan. It will produce resources daily and contribute its revenue weight to your leaderboard score. Any clan member must manually maintain it within the 12–24 hour window each cycle — otherwise the planet becomes vulnerable and can be taken by others.

You can only conquer a planet owned by another clan if it is vulnerable (their treasury ran dry). Invulnerable owned planets cannot be targeted.

Raid

A raid collects resources from a planet without claiming it. You receive 4× the planet's daily yield, adjusted by your cargo hold capacity. The ship auto-returns once resources are collected — no captain action needed. Raids are useful for quickly building up resources to unlock deeper rings without committing to the maintenance cost of conquest.

Harvest

Harvest missions visit one of your own planets to collect resources that have been accumulating since the last harvest. Travel speed is 50% faster than conquest/raid. Resources collected scale with how long it's been since the last harvest, up to a maximum of 7 days.

Voting on a mission

Any clan member can propose a mission by clicking a planet on the galaxy map and selecting a mission type. This creates an active proposal that all members can vote on.

• The proposal shows the planet, mission type, travel time, broccoli cost, and expected resource yield
• A majority of members must vote Yes for the mission to launch
• Proposals expire after 48 hours if a majority isn't reached
• Only one proposal can be active at a time
• The proposer or the leader can cancel a proposal before it launches

Life on the ship

During a mission your garden scene is replaced by the ship interior. You can see your clanmates' characters on board. The ship HUD shows your destination, distance remaining, ETA, and engine status.

The maintenance mini-game

While the ship is traveling, maintenance checks come due at regular intervals (roughly every third of the travel time). Any crew member can perform them by tapping the Perform Maintenance button in the Overview tab when it becomes available.

How it works

Clicking the button opens a short mini-game: four coloured circuit panels flash a sequence, and you must tap them back in the same order. The sequence length depends on urgency:

Consequences of missing checks

• 1 missed check — ship slows to 50% speed, remaining travel time doubles
• 2 missed checks — ship stalls completely. A crew member must fix the engine before travel resumes
• Completed on time — small speed boost applied, shortening the journey slightly

Planet ownership, resources & maintenance

A conquered planet provides two benefits: daily resource yield deposited into the clan vault, and a revenue weight contribution to the leaderboard score.

Daily resource yield

Each planet produces resources every day based on its type and position within the ring. Resources are deposited into the clan vault automatically and can be spent on ship components and access requirements for deeper rings.

Planet specialization

Once you own a planet, the leader can choose a specialization from the planet detail screen:

• Mining Colony — +30% resource yield
• Efficient Outpost — −40% daily maintenance cost

Manual maintenance

Planets must be manually maintained by a clan member. Any member can do it — open the planet detail (or click the Maintain button in the clan overview) and the cost is deducted from the clan treasury. Maintenance works in three phases, similar to feeding your character:

You can maintain a planet any time during the 12–24 hour window. Maintaining resets the clock and starts a fresh 12-hour safe period. If no one maintains within 24 hours, the planet becomes vulnerable.

Progressive maintenance costs

Maintenance cost scales with how many planets your clan owns. Your cheapest planet always occupies slot 1, your next slot 2, and so on (ordered by conquest date). This is designed so that expanding your empire gets progressively harder to sustain — keeping space from being dominated by a single clan.

Releasing a planet frees up that slot and lowers your total daily burden. Only the clan leader can release a planet. Released planets become abandoned and available for conquest again.

Vulnerable planets

A planet becomes vulnerable when no clan member maintains it within 24 hours of the last maintenance. Vulnerable planets:

• Can be conquered by any other clan without the normal "unclaimed only" restriction
• Remain yours until another clan completes a conquest mission against them

To restore a vulnerable planet, click Maintain on it. This deducts the slot cost from the treasury, resets the clock, and clears the vulnerability immediately. A fresh 12-hour safe period then begins.

The clan leaderboard

Clans are ranked by their total planet revenue weight — the sum of the revenue weights of every planet they own. This is visible in the Galaxy tab leaderboard.

Higher-ranked clans receive a larger share when clan payouts launch. The leaderboard also shows each clan's current payout percentage, so you can see exactly what share your clan would receive.

Building your score

• Conquering more planets always increases your weight
• Outer ring planets have dramatically higher weights — one Ring 4 planet (15–40×) is worth many Ring 1 planets (1×)
• Losing planets to other clans (when vulnerable) reduces your weight

Tips & FAQ

Common questions and things worth knowing before you get too deep in.

Top tips

🌿 Garden

• Feed every day without fail. Missing a single day resets your streak to zero and removes you from Loyalty Rewards eligibility if you drop below 7 days.
• Water your plants before voting yes on a clan mission. You won't be able to water during the voyage, and plants left unwatered too long will wilt and give reduced rewards.
• Buy a sprinkler early. At 500 broccoli it's cheap relative to the time it saves — one click to water every plant at once.

🏰 Clans

• Keep the treasury funded. Check the Treasury tab for the number of days of maintenance remaining. Donating a small amount regularly is better than scrambling when planets go vulnerable.
• Anyone can do maintenance. Don't assume the leader will handle it — if you see a maintenance check due on the ship, do it yourself. Missing two checks stalls the ship for everyone.

💰 Economy

• Check the broccoli price before selling. It fluctuates ±40% from the base rate. Selling when the price is above base earns noticeably more.
• Reach Level 10 and a 7-day streak as your first goal. This is the threshold for Loyalty Rewards eligibility — the main way to earn Nano passively.
• Streak multipliers compound quickly. At 25 days your feed progress multiplier goes to 1.5×, and at 50 days it reaches 2×. Long streaks level you up faster.

Your Nanogotchi levels up by accumulating enough Feed Progress. The number of feeds required to reach the next level equals your current level + 1. So reaching Level 2 requires 2 feeds, Level 3 requires 3, and so on.

When you have enough Feed Progress, a Level Up button appears. Click it to level up. Your Nanogotchi will grow visually as it levels up — higher level pets are physically larger in the garden scene.

Why level matters

• Level 10 — unlocks clan creation and Loyalty Rewards eligibility
• Level 8 — unlocks the Greenhouse upgrade
• Different levels unlock different items
• Higher levels increase your Loyalty Rewards payout weight
• Your character's visual size in the game world scales with level
