Candy Kingdom Defense Beginner Guide

The selection screen shows Finn and Jake as Rare, 3-star options. It identifies Finn with a sword role and Jake with an extending attack style in the recorded interface, but it does not show a confirmed selection or a same-condition damage test. For available sample data, compare the Finn unit page with the Jake unit page. If you are looking at later investments, the rarity tier list groups the captured unit forms by star count, with Finn and Jake in the three-star C tier.

The recorded team interface has six hero slots and a Summon entrance. Use it to assemble the heroes you own; the screenshot set does not establish an optimal six-unit team. The summon reference explains what the captured summon interface displayed.

Choose a unit card, then click open ground beside the road. The tutorial shows the range preview and a “Not on the road” rejection. If rejected, move the preview to valid open ground, place the unit, select it to open upgrades, and use Start Wave to begin.

Upgrade stages belong to a unit during a match; they are separate from a hero’s collection or profile level. Captured Finn panels show stage 1 Sword Slash (Damage 85, Range 20.2, Attack Speed 0.9s, Splash 5), stage 2 Sword Slash+ (118, 22.1, 0.8s, 5), and stage 4 Somersault Chop+ (343, 23.1, 2.3s, 11). The interface also shows upgrade costs such as $120, $280 and $800 in those samples. Other stages are not filled in by inference.

The recorded Candy Road result reached Wave 6/6 with 20 lives left and a 5:23 clear time. It is useful as a concrete first-clear reference, but does not show all six wave compositions, enemy paths or a reproducible team. Open the Candy Road result page for the reward details and evidence boundary.

The same result screen lists +150 Gems, +1 Trait Crystal and +2 XP Candies with a “FIRST CLEAR” label. This records the displayed reward for that clear; it does not establish repeat rewards. Before spending a Trait Crystal, review the trait interface notes and its displayed odds.

The tutorial says to click a hero card first. Finn’s deployment preview shows a $50 cost and Q to cancel. Choose the intended hero, inspect the placement preview and cancel if the location or unit is wrong; a preview is different from an already deployed unit.

Back in the lobby, QUESTS opens the task list and the summon chest shows an E interaction prompt. Continue with the active quests, then check daily rewards and player-level milestones for separate resource goals. Use Areas to find the named locations.
