Collecting
Mines and wells fill up over time. Tap one to collect it. When a mine holds less than 10 minutes of output, a tap selects it instead, so you can see its upgrade options.
Storage
You can only hold as much as your Gold Vaults and Ember Casks store. Upgrade them, or build more, to save up for big upgrades.
Losing resources
Raiders take a share of what is in your vaults and casks. Walls, defenses and traps protect them.
