Helping gamers
Supercell is actually helping gamers, particularly the newbies, in hurdling key challenges and obstacles in the game so that they can level up and continue playing.
The developer understands that the easiest way for newbie gamers to give up on a game and stop playing is when they can’t move forward to the next levels.

Even the veteran gamers can also pick up pointers from the tutorial as well as additional resources which they can make use in their respective game to battle Lt. Hammerman in the “Hammerman Attacks You” event.
Supercell has the “Dr. Terror’ video tutorial event, posted via YouTube every Wednesday and Saturday for 24 hours.
Dr. Terror rewards a lot of resources, gold, and dark power stones. Whenever Dr. Terror arrives, defences change and there is an up-to-date guide, which gamers are advised to check every now and then as it will help them clear Dr. Terror stages 1 to 20 while utilizing the lowest possible power.
