First base route

Merge a Nuke beginner guide for your first base

Start by merging duplicates into stronger nukes, collect cash before spending, redeem BOOM in the live client, lock before risky launches, and upgrade the system that slows the next merge or raid cycle.

Build cash tempo

The core loop is merge, earn, launch, and defend. Beginners should keep the board dense and cash moving before chasing raid chains.

  • Merge matching bombs as soon as space gets tight.
  • Collect offline and live cash before new spending.
  • Spend on the part that slows the next stronger nuke.

Use BOOM safely

Try BOOM in the live client, then use the reward only after the game shows what you received.

  • Paste BOOM exactly.
  • Submit once before a long session.
  • Do not trust reward amounts from copied lists without proof.

Lock before launching

Launches are safest when your base defense is ready.

  • Lock before high-value launches.
  • Spend stolen cash quickly.
  • Pause raids when your base is exposed.
Action route

Use it in game

  1. Join from Roblox.
  2. Merge starter bombs until the board frees space.
  3. Collect cash before major spending.
  4. Redeem BOOM in the live code menu.
  5. Lock the base before launching at rivals.
  6. Use gains on the current blocker: spawn pace, merge friction, raid cooldown, or defense.
FAQ

Player questions

What should I merge first when the board starts filling up?

Merge matching low nukes immediately so the board keeps creating higher tiers instead of clogging with weak pieces. Learn the basic chain by combining equal nukes before focusing on raids.

Which upgrade should I buy first: spawn tier or max spawn?

Buy the upgrade that fixes the visible slowdown. If new nukes arrive too weak, push spawn tier; if the board runs out of room, push max spawn. Default spawn level and base capacity solve different problems.

How should I prepare before the attack timer ends?

Use the countdown to stack stronger nukes, collect cash, and avoid wasting space. Waiting passively leaves you with fewer launch options when the city opens.

Why did my city attack do less damage than expected?

Aim at parts of the city with buildings and rotate through ready nukes instead of clicking empty areas. Misses and low-building targets waste launches while the city health recovers.

When is Auto Merge useful?

Auto Merge is useful when manual combining becomes the main friction. It fits idle or low-attention sessions more than careful manual testing.

What should beginners do first?

Keep the merge board moving, collect cash, and reach a stable lock-and-launch rhythm.

Is BOOM safe to try?

Yes, try BOOM in the in-game redeem menu, then read the reward message before planning around it.

Should I raid immediately?

Raid after your base lock is ready and your cash can be spent quickly.

Does offline cash matter?

Yes. Check returning cash before spending or changing your merge plan.

Are exact merge costs public?

No. Use the live upgrade UI for exact costs and this guide for route decisions.
