How can I increase the Boomtown population?
Once you have increased your Population Limit it is time to increase the amount of citizens! Add HOUSES to increase the number of Boomtowners living in your town.
Houses produce RENTS for you to collect, so make sure you keep them stocked with Goods.
Houses require special Items to finish, which you can find by killing enemies and collecting loot from other buildings.

You can increase this limit by adding Storage facilities. Add Storage Silos, Barns and Sheds found in the SHOP, under the FARMING tab to increase your storage capacity.
You can add as many storage buildings as you like!
How can I increase the Population Limit?
Add buildings from the POPULATION BUILDINGS tab in the SHOP to increase the population limit.
Each building increases the limit and allows you to build more houses!
Ask Friends to help you finish population buildings, or use Gold to finish instantly.

You unlock new areas by completing missions. Remember to check out the mission objectives on the left of the screen if you need a reminder of what to do next!
Missions may be instantly completed by using Gold.

Every time you Level Up you can assign 1 point to a different skill.

What is health regeneration?
The health for each assassin and boss enemy regenerates after you fired your first shot. The rate of regeneration depends on the enemies levels and it tweaked individually.

What is Duel?
Dueling is fighting against other players in Ghost Town or neighboring Boomtowns.
You can access Ghost Town by clicking on the DUEL ICON which is found on the right of your screen, or opening the MAP and clicking on the Ghost Town icon.
Visit neighboring Boomtowns by hovering over a Friends’ portrait in the NEIGHBOR bar at the bottom of the screen and selecting VISIT.
Click on an opponent to start a Duel.
Dueling consumes unique Duel Ammo.
How do Duels work
The system behind the duel is split in three parts.
In the first part, the system calculates your weapons’ draw speed based on your gun and “Quick Draw” skill in order to determine if a head shot takes places in the next phase.
In the second phase, the winner of the quick draw gets to try and obtain a headshot. The value is derived from your weapons’ bonus (better weapon, better headshot chances) and from your “Head Shot: Revolver” and “Head Shots: Rifles and Shotguns” skill. After calculating your head shot bonus there is an internal “dice roll” which establishes your chances for an instant win.
If the “dice roll” failed in the previous phase, the system moves to the third and final phase. Here it gathers all the attributes from the gun and skills (Damage, Draw Speed, Head Shot Odds! and Weapon Rating) and then calculates the chances of a win.
What are the leaderboards?
The leaderboards are a cool new way of seeing which one of your friends is the best gunslinger in the West.
To be number one and show off your skills, you just need to fight in Ghostown!
The Boomtown citizens will hold a tournament each week, and if you can impress them with your high score they will reward you with awesome prizes!
What is the weekly tournament?
You can compete against your friends in the weekly tournament and the one with the highest score wins a very special gold prize.
The tournaments ends every Sunday at midnight (server time) so you can play with all your friends from all over the world!
