    I know it's a b*tch but you'll get it eventually. Took me like a week. >_<

    The extra clones you need are a
    carpenter
    and a
    lifeguard

    EDIT: ninja'd

    My total population says 40/60. I said I had 40 unique jobs because I'm 95% sure I didn't create any duplicates.

    It's really frustrating, because every single one of my target buildings (HQ, theatre, museum, casino, church to name a few) is inaccessible because I got the two crappiest random genes first (explorer and salesman)

    Wow. So after spending over a BILLION coins trying to get the whale, today I get on and spend 40 millions on 10 quick surprises. Here's what I got:

    4 gorillas
    3 giraffes
    2 500,000 coins
    1 100,000 coins

    Seriously? SERIOUSLY? This is getting not just tedious and boring and annoying and frustrating and stressful, but also sad. I feel like I'm being trolled and I'm getting exactly 0 EPS from this game. That's enjoyment per second. I'm not so sad I can't still joke. :'(

    Just remember to keep those gorillas for monkey business. XP then you'll have another 100 or so million to blow trying to get him haha

    Sometimes I believe you have to level up to get a new gene; at least that's how I got some of mine.

    Ivan confirmed that you can get all the genes without leveling up.

    Try to add 5 more people (fill up some existing buildings). You should get another special gene at around 45 population.

    By the way, rabbits should be banned from this game, just saying. In fact, we should trade all animals for KING PLATYPUS.

    Thats the problem though. It's just a ? with no mission text under it. When i tap on it, all 9 items are ? with no text and a buyout of 0u. When tapping on the 0u, it crashes the game.

    Lord, I hope not. The whole reason I started a game on my ipad was to play a lvl 9 min/max game. If I have to start over because I got unlucky with the wrong genes...grrr.....well, I won't. /quit

    This is a bug. To fix this, do the following:

    Click "buyout" (it costs 0u) and confirm the buyout. A blank special gene will appear.

    Now, the next step is IMPORTANT: CLOSE THE APP instead of clicking the X. Reopening the app will then clear the blank mission.

    Finally, to unlock the SECRET GENE MISSIONS, you'll need to find at least one secret gene first!

    Thank you. That worked. Unfortunately! I got the stupid bureaucrat gene...I guess I didn't realize quite how important the Dreamer is. You can't unlock most of the mission genes without it. You need it for about a billion jobs, and getting it last means my lvl9 "restarted utopian Utopia" is massively inefficient.


    Bleah. How annoying. Kind of a shame that the order these Special genes aren't at least a LITTLE less random. :mad::(

    So basically you're angry because they didn't optimize the game for what is clearly an exploit (church/casino strategy) :D
    I'm not saying you shouldn't try it out, but just remember they didn't design the game to be played using this exploit ;)

    Haha, I don't think we'll do something like that. The AG decor is definitely more expensive if you go by any comparative coin/u conversion rate in the game. I suggest you delete those instead :)

    And just to confirm, absolutely no changes to Spirit Scaling in the near future. Only thing that has changed is that we've lowered the chances of AG decor from Casino.

    Oh well, I'll keep'em for now. Thks ;)
    I can expand more, once you're over the cap for the casino and such, there's no point in restraining expansion I guess.

    I don't know why you are stuck. I've begun a new game with the casino/church strategy last Saturday and I also got the Dreamer gene last. I agree that this gene is really important and unlocks a lot of important buildings but I wasn't stuck.

    As someone said, the key to unlocking new special genes seems to be the total population. So you just have to keep using your clones (even with useless jobs).

    However, I was stuck after I unlocked the church and casino for 3 days because I got nothing useful (only 1 Manor and 1 Bronze plaza in about 50 spins...). Things got a bit better yesterday since I got 1 AG Tree, 1 Bronze Plaza, 1 Manor and 1 Precarious Heights in less than 10 spins :)
