Massive Town Center Upgrade and Hidden Stage Revealed in Kingshot
Introduction
After just 17 days into my 30-day Kingshot challenge, I unlocked a secret land, reached Town Center level 20, and redefined my upgrade strategy. Here's everything that changed.
1. Upgrading to Town Center 20 Opened a Whole New Game Area
Until recently, I thought I knew most of what Kingshot had to offer. But once I hit Town Center level 19, something unexpected happened — a ship appeared next to my embassy. It turns out, it leads to a completely new map zone.
(1) So what's in this secret land?
A few buildings, uncollected resources, and upgrades I didn’t even know existed. Honestly, I'm still figuring it out — but it feels like a game within the game.
🚢 What you can do in the hidden zone so far
| Feature | What it offers |
|---|---|
| Resource collection | One-tap resource gather, separate from main kingdom |
| Standalone upgrades | Can upgrade structures independently |
| Daily login rewards | New daily chest system adds bonus items |
| Game mechanics unclear | Still not sure how progression affects main gameplay |
Why it surprised me: I’ve been logging in daily and grinding hard — but this feature stayed hidden until the TC19 upgrade. It caught me off guard.
2. Town Center Level 20: What Unlocks, and Why It Matters
Once my Embassy finished its upgrade, I wasted no time pushing my Town Center to level 20. I used speed-ups and a decree to accelerate construction.
(1) What unlocked at Town Center 20?
Honestly, the main unlock was Tier 7 troops, which became available once certain buildings were also upgraded.
🎯 Key milestone unlocks at TC20
| Upgrade | Unlock Condition |
|---|---|
| Tier 7 ranged units | Requires barracks upgrade + TC19 |
| Faster construction | Use decree to shorten building time |
| Improved battle capability | Stronger troops drastically improve PvE |
I hit TC20 and unlocked Tier 7 ranged troops within an hour. That alone changed my battle outcomes immediately.
I’ve been focusing on ranged units first, but next in line are the barracks and stables to unlock more Tier 7 unit types. That’s part of my new build plan.
3. Alliance Play and Battle Strategy Are More Important Than Ever
Now that my power level is climbing, I’m much more active in Alliance-based events and conquests. I’ve been attacking Dread Wolves, rescuing villagers, and collecting loot chests daily.
(1) Here’s how I structure my daily alliance activities
- Deploy 2 squads immediately after reset
- Run conquests for fast resource gains
- Rescue missions for power growth
- Attack elite monsters like Dread Wolves
- Join all alliance rallies and auto-join whenever possible
I’m on Server 819 and part of the "Devil’s Paradise" alliance. If you're looking for a team that’s constantly active, it’s worth checking out.
4. Gear Upgrades and Hero Focus: Mistakes and Adjustments
(1) I stopped spreading myself thin across too many heroes
One of the best pieces of advice I got recently was to focus on just a few key heroes and level them up properly — gear, skills, everything.
I’ve mainly been investing in Jable and Saul, with most of my purchases going toward gear for them.
(2) About those top-up packs: worth it?
I bought a few $5 packs for Saul thinking they were good value. But now I’m questioning that decision — especially since I’ve been investing consistently in Saul anyway.
💰 Comparison: Daily Pack vs Wheel Max-Out
| Option | Cost | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Saul Pack | $5 per day | Slow and steady progress | No guaranteed max-out |
| Saul Wheel (One-time) | ~$50 | Immediate full unlock | Higher upfront cost |
Honestly, I might’ve spent more in the long run doing dailies instead of just maxing Saul early on.
Still, I unlocked new gear like the Rabbit Cannon and helmets I wanted. Not a total loss.
5. Arena Progress: Rewards Are Nice, But Costs Add Up
(1) Arena rewards are worth the grind — to an extent
I’m currently sitting at 748 ranking with 1.4 million power, and Arena matches are getting harder. I’ve only been upgrading legendary and blue gear, avoiding anything that feels temporary.
I used 100 gems for one extra Arena battle — not worth it. One match per refresh isn’t a great deal.
- Stick to one main formation
- Avoid unnecessary gem spending
- Prioritize gear rewards
- Use free refreshes only unless ranking is close to milestone
Upgrading gear slowly has worked — but I’m starting to hit a wall. Might need to adjust soon.
6. Smart Use of Decrees: What’s Worth the 20% Boost?
(1) Here’s what I noticed
The Decree reduces construction time by 20% for a limited period. I activated mine right before starting the Town Center 20 upgrade.
⏱️ Time saved with decree use
| Action | Before Decree | After Decree | Time Saved |
|---|---|---|---|
| Town Center Upgrade | 2d 18h | 2d 5h | 13 hours |
I considered using the decree on unit training or minor buildings — but in the end, saving time on the biggest upgrade felt smartest.
I’ll save my next decree for the Embassy and other TC21 prerequisites once this upgrade finishes.
7. Final Stats and What's Next in the 30-Day Challenge
After 17 days of play, here’s where I’m standing:
📊 Current account status at Day 17
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Town Center Level | 20 |
| Total Power | 5,738,331 |
| Highest Troop Tier | Tier 7 (Ranged unlocked) |
| Main Heroes Focused On | Jable, Saul |
| Arena Ranking | 748 |
| Server | 819 |
| Alliance | Devil’s Paradise |
My focus from here is clear: keep building, unlock remaining Tier 7 units, and participate in every alliance activity possible.
Conclusion
Reaching Town Center level 20 brought more than just stronger troops — it revealed an entire hidden land and opened new upgrade strategies. From Arena rethinking to hero investments and Decree timing, these 17 days of Kingshot have been packed with surprises.
