Which Orders Should I Finish First?

Official Order Guide

The best first order is usually the one that gives progress, space, or event value with the least extra Energy

Orders are the board's priority list. When several requests are active at once, the smartest choice is not always the biggest reward. It is the order that helps the whole session move.

Key Takeaways

• Which Orders Should I Finish First? gives players a practical decision framework. Start with the current order, event, or story goal before spending Energy or resources.
• Clear definitions help better play. Know what the system does, when it matters, and what mistake usually wastes progress.
• Focused sessions beat scattered tapping. The strongest results come from matching Energy, board space, and rewards to one visible objective.

Finish orders that use items already on the board

If an order can be completed with pieces you already have, it is often worth finishing first. This clears space, gives a reward, and reduces visual clutter without forcing a new generator cycle.

Prioritize orders that open board space

A crowded board makes every decision harder. If one order removes several items or finishes a chain that has been blocking important tiles, it can be more valuable than a larger order that only adds more pieces to the board.

Move event-related orders up the list

During events, the best order may be the one that helps reach the next milestone before the timer ends. Event value can temporarily beat normal efficiency, especially when the reward track is close and the remaining task is realistic.

Delay long chains until they have a clear payoff

Deep chains can be important, but they are expensive in Energy and space. Delay them if they do not unlock a chapter, complete a makeover goal, or produce a reward that changes the next part of your run.

Use story progress as the tie-breaker

When two orders seem equally useful, choose the one tied more closely to the visible story or makeover objective. That keeps board work connected to Alice's next scene, outfit, or relationship moment.
