University Empire Tycoon advanced guide: Must know tips and tricks

1 What to upgrade next?

If you want to progress into the game quickly, then there is a small secret. The game actually has a roadmap, and if you follow it, then you will progress quickly.

Don’t go on upgrading whatever you like. Look at your Mission section on the bottom right side of the screen and try to complete these missions. These missions are always like upgrade this thing to this level. When you complete these missions, you not only automatically are on the quickest path to progress, but you earn diamonds which you can use to speed up your construction time.

2 Best way to spend diamonds

As you complete missions, you will earn a lot of diamonds in the game. Now you can go crazy spending it howsoever you like, but then again, there is a best way to spend diamonds.

Never spend diamonds on hiring teachers because you will get to hire better professors with cash as your progress in the game. Never spend diamonds to complete long researches and construction. So where to spend diamond? Well, the best to spend diamonds is to use them to finish quick constructions. For example, use diamonds to instantly complete constructions that take, let’s say, 10 Min, 15 Min, 30 Min, etc. This way, you will be able to complete 7-8 construction once you open the game. And once you are about to close the game, then put a long construction task in progress so that it will be completed anyway when you return.

3 Use real life timings to your advantage

To quickly progress in the game, complete all the small construction and researches in the daytime because you will be able to open the game every now and then. And at night, before you are going to sleep, make sure to put in long research and construction that needs over 8 hours. This way, you will be using the maximum amount of your time.

4 Thinking of spending real money?

If you are thinking about spending real money on the game, don’t buy diamonds, teachers, or any kind of boost. The best way to spend your money is on the builders. You can purchase a total of 4 builders with real cash. You can then use these builders to do 4 constructions at the same time. In simple terms, you will progress in the game with 4X speed.

5 ‘Make Way!’ is a very important research

As you establish multiple departments such as the department of maths, economics, arts, etc. Students will be enrolled in multiple degree courses meaning they will take classes in multiple departments. This means that they will have to run from one department to another between classes. And if you notice closely, you will find that many students fail to reach their other class despite running. Therefore they don’t learn anything. This is why ‘Make Way’! is a very important research. It’s in the employees’ section of research and increases the movement speed of students.

6 Don’t upgrade bathrooms

Bathrooms in the game are not important at all. They don’t provide any benefit. This might look impractical in real life, but you should avoid upgrading bathrooms at all in the game. Why? Because the students spend a lot of time in the bathroom, many pursuing dual degree courses miss out on their classes because of it. If you choose not to upgrade your bathroom, it will be quickly filled with just 2-3 students, and as there is no waiting line; therefore, other students will run to their next class.

7 Edit timetable as per your facilities

After completing the ‘Master of time’ research, you will be able to edit the university’s timetable as per your wish. However, editing the timetable is a very complex procedure, and the in-game tutorial fails to explain the right way to edit the timetable. 

There is no best timetable in University Empire Tycoon; it is entirely dependent on what kind of facilities and upgrades are available in your university. For example, suppose you have unlocked and upgraded multiple cafeterias in your university, and the number of students is average. In that case, you can remove up to 2 hours of mealtime and put more classes over there. However, if you find editing the timetable a complicated process, then you can play with the default timetable as well; it’s actually pretty good.
