Here are some tips to help you mine more ELM.
Tip 1: Hearts in the Puzzle game are lost when you lose a level, but they regenerate after a period of time. Keep an eye on the regeneration time so you don’t miss out.
Tip 2: If you want to play as long and as economically as possible, buy the 12-hour heart package, as this allows you to play unlimitedly for 12 consecutive hours.
Tip 3: Playing more rounds increases your chances of getting ELM.
Tip 4: Playing at all times of the day will give you a better chance of getting more ELM than playing at only one fixed time.
Tip 5: When mining ELM, you should play in order from the first level to the last. The first levels are easier to play. (This tip may only be true at this time)
Tip 6: If you’re playing a level and you feel there’s too little ELM, you can exit that level and replay it until you’re satisfied with the amount. Note that this only applies to those who purchased the unlimited package.
Tip 7: The more people mine ELM, the more ELM will be distributed. This is based on the following mechanism:
Each day, the system sets a daily cap on the maximum amount of ELM all players can mine.
The minimum is 10,080 ELM/day.
If the community mines all of this ELM in a day, the amount available to mine will double the next day.
Example:
10,080 → 20,160 → 40,320 → 80,640 → …
Therefore, inviting more people to join in mining will benefit everyone.
