Each particular habitat holds a certain maximum number of dragons, and a certain number of maximum coins. Maximum coins are how many coins the habitat can collect before it stops earning coins, and you have to collect from it. Whenever you upgrade a particular habitat, it will earn more maximum coins and gain the ability to hold more maximum dragons. Tap the habitat on your island or in the store and tap the “i” button to check out all of the need-to-know information about the habitat.
Early on in the game, as well, you’ll unlock the Viking Agency building. Once you buy this, you can send a dragon on a mission, and 24 hours later, it will come back and you will earn a huge bonus of either cash, coins or experience points that have been brought back by the dragon. The higher the level of the dragon, the more coins, cash or experience points that it will earn from a mission.
Of course, the Crossbreeding building is also important. Once you unlock this, you will be able to breed any two dragons who are level 5 or higher. Once you breed them, they’ll create a new dragon egg, which you can then send to the nursery to hatch. Once the egg is ready to hatch, you will be able to place it in your island, but you’ll need to buy a specific habitat for the dragon, just like with the dragons that you originally paid coins for.
Tap the quest button on the left side of the screen, and you will be taken to a list of all of the quests that you have yet to complete, or that you have already completed. Each quest that you complete earns you coins,, energy, experience points, cash, or some combination of the above for completing it.
