Hitting the "free-play" wall

Worked my way up to L33, TH7, and about 1200 trophy pts. Every upgrade now takes at least a day - some several days.

Is this the point where free play ends? Haven't bought any gems yet, and wouldn't mind spending a reasonable amount. Seems like $10-$20 in gems will hardly buy any upgrades...and I am not gonna drop more than that on this game. Thoughts?

Nope I have town hall level8 with no gems spent trophies high of 1650

P.s. I'm now a member not junior😃😃😃😃😃

There are tons of people with TH9 maxing out everything (taking up to 14 days per upgrade) without a single gem bought..

Just be patient, play some other games in meantime go outside etc. No need to spend money to hurry up, enjoy it rather.

i just bought for 5 builders only
3d lefts for town 9, trophy 1600

The waiting takes longer, but you also need to farm more gold to keep your builders busy.

Just max out every TH and you will be busy enough!

Spend cash on builders so you have 5.

Don't forget there are also walls to max. They will keep you busy for a loooooooooong time!

Really now? I play a lot and am level 68 with a mostly maxed out th8 (I spent five bucks for a builder four). I know I started in September, and the game came out a bit before that, but I find it hard to believe someon is fully upgraded without spending anything.

As i said indeed :p its not possible to have everything maxed already now, but as you're almost maxed TH8 its possible to be busy maxing TH9 by now.

I have been playing since the beginning of October and I am in the lvl 70s and am not terribly far away from maxxing my town hall 8. It will probably take a few more weeks, though. I have paid to have all 5 builders, but nothing more.

The game gives you a clear choice: To get far in the game you must put in a lot of time OR a lot of money. You cant play for 20 minutes a day and never spend a dime and expect to have 3500 trophies and a maxxed out base, because that just isnt the way the game is meant to be. Pay up, buckle down, or you will never get past being mediocre.

You're TH7 and just now complaining about 1 day upgrades? I'm going to guess you upgraded TH's way too quickly
