Epic [Project] Fail
I have attempted to complete the epic project- education specialization at least three times and cannot come close to reaching even the turtle tier. My last attempt I completed 21 tasks- all of which...
@SheSheCooL37 Epic projects can be quite challenging and @Penakyna has shared some excellent advice. Epic projects are time consuming and challenging and requires a lot of preparation and resource gathering (including simoleons) to effectively accomplish the task. I encourage my guys to acquire and place high point items for landmarks, entertainment, beach, etc. and put those in place before undertaking any project - select the category you have the best chance for success (although it will cost you to change type) and commit the time and energy to complete the task.
1 point items always require more resources and expense than a 2, 3, or 4 and are absolutely to be avoided if at all possible - no wonder it seems like a black hole. My suggestion is to select one category and focus upgrading with higher point items and start accumulating resources and try again when you’re prepared. It really boils down to patience and developing your city effectively to face the challenge. Good luck in your next effort.
You can change the parameters for some simoleons as was suggested. My best area for this is beach so I will move a potential building close to beach area, then change it till I get beach specialization. I also only go as high as the llamas, It's hard to get enough cheetah buildings to make a go of it. I just get extra cheetahs in the special events as they come along pretty steady. This game, like life, works best at a slow and steady pace rather than trying to get everything in a big rush, Unless you are one of those people who know how to "cheat" and where is the fun in that? Good luck, Mayor of Samarkand.
