Boost Your ‘X Empire’ Telegram Game Airdrop Rewards Before the Deadline – Tips from Decrypt

Elon Musk-inspired Telegram game
X Empire
turned off its gameplay
on Monday
ahead of the planned X token airdrop—and then
brought it back on Wednesday
with a short “Chill Phase” that will last about two weeks before the late October token launch on
The Open Network
(TON).

In this last sprint before the airdrop, X Empire has reset all progress, challenging the tens of millions of players to push hard for a share of 34.5 billion additional X tokens allocated for the event. The original airdrop allocations have already been calculated and won’t be changed, but the Chill Phase offers an opportunity to earn a little more crypto before the drop.

Luckily, if you’ve already been playing X Empire, then a lot of the familiar strategies still apply. You just have to start from zero, regardless of how far you’d gotten during the original phase.

But if you’re trying to make the most of the Chill Phase and boost your chances of receiving a solid share of the additional tokens, here are a few quick tips.

Invest in upgrades

As with the original airdrop, your “Coins per hour” rate of passive income will be key for determining how big of a bag you take away from X Empire’s Chill Phase. So tap that “Improve” button at the bottom of the screen and invest your earned coins on upgrades to your avatar’s traits, office, and team.

You’re spending money to make money, only it’s fake money you’re spending now—and real money (well, cryptocurrency) to ultimately claim in the airdrop. Some upgrades offer more bang for your buck, so choose wisely, continually spend your passive income on more and more upgrades, and level up your avatar as much as possible before the airdrop.

Do the daily combo

Another easy way to boost your in-game earnings is to invest in fake stocks via the City menu. Each day, three of the fictional stock market picks pay off handsomely, multiplying the amount of in-game coins you wagered on it. And each day, we update our X Empire daily combo guide with the current picks—so hit that up and don’t miss the added bonus.

Complete quests

Like many Telegram crypto games, X Empire also incentivizes engagement with social media and video content, and completing in-game quests is one of the stated criteria for the airdrop. Each day, the game serves up a number of daily quests, including improving five attributes, earning a certain amount of coins by tapping, and watching certain YouTube videos.

Complete all of the daily tasks and you’ll not only get a coin bonus, but also a Daily Lucky Box… which usually just gives you more coins, as well. Given the short timeframe for this Chill Phase, it might be worth watching the videos to complete all of the daily quests—so you can get an edge on other players.

There are also bonus quests to complete, such as solving the daily riddle and rebus puzzles—and you’ll find the solutions for both in our daily-updated guide. Connecting a TON wallet and making donations or other purchases will also play a role in the airdrop, the developers said.

Invite friends

Last but not least, the “quantity and quality of invited friends” is another primary criteria for the upcoming airdrop, so you might consider bugging a few pals if they’ll be a good sport about it—and won’t hold your badgering against you.
