Age Of Apes

How to Play Age of Apes

Mastering the primate wasteland is all about smart decisions and efficient taps. Here’s the basic command structure for leading your clan:

• Build & Expand: Tap an empty plot to construct new buildings or tap existing ones to see upgrade options. Your City Hall is the heart of your outpost.
• Train Your Army: Access your various military buildings (like the Barracks) to train different types of ape fighters. Keep those queues full!
• Research & Conquer: Use your Research Center to unlock powerful new technologies. Tap on the world map to scout for resources, hunt mutant monkeys, or launch PvP attacks against rival outposts.
• Manage Your Fighters: Before any battle, select your best Fighter to lead the charge. Each has unique skills that can turn the tide of war.

Your Burning Questions, Answered

What's the fastest way to get more bananas in Age of Apes?

Bananas are the lifeblood of your operation, and keeping a steady flow is key. Your first priority should be building and consistently upgrading your Banana Farms. Beyond that, actively complete your daily quests and event challenges, as they offer significant resource rewards. For the most aggressive players, scouting and successfully raiding weaker player outposts on the world map is the most direct way to plunder the bananas you need for your conquest.

How do I use my Fighters effectively?

Think of your Fighters as the generals of your monkey army. They aren't just strong units; their skills define your strategy. The secret is synergy. Pair Fighters with troops that benefit from their skills—for example, a Fighter that boosts shooter attack power should lead an army heavy with shooter-type units. Don't neglect their individual level-ups and gear. A well-equipped, high-level Fighter can defeat a larger army led by a weaker one.

Are alliances (Gangs) really that important?

Absolutely. Trying to go it alone in the Age of Apes is a fast track to getting wiped off the map. Joining an active Gang is non-negotiable for serious players. Gangs provide protection, allow you to participate in massive GvG (Gang vs. Gang) wars for incredible rewards, and let you get "help" from allies to drastically speed up your building and research timers. Teamwork is what makes these sprawling MMOs truly fun and engaging.

Is Age of Apes free to play?

Yes, Age of Apes is a free-to-play game. You can download and play through the entire core experience without spending any money, which is a model shared by many popular online games on portals like CrazyGames. There are optional in-app purchases available for players who wish to acquire premium currency, speed up timers, or buy special resource packs, but you can be a very competitive player without ever making a purchase if you play strategically.

I'm stuck! What should my main focus be?

When in doubt, follow the main chapter quests. The game does a great job of guiding you through the essential progression path, and the rewards will help you grow. As a rule of thumb, always keep three things running: your builders should be building/upgrading, your research lab should be researching, and your barracks should be training troops. Keeping these three queues active ensures you're always getting stronger.
