Recently I have become obsessed with playing Gala Games’ Town Star, a strategic and fun farming game. If you liked Farmville or Hay Day, you’ll like this too! And there is the possibility of earning Gala coins if you place well enough in the weekly competitions.
If you are curious about playing Town Star after reading what’s below, why don’t you check it out on Gala Games here? If you use my referral code: 61b61f9c352d554856a4a072 when you join, we will both earn a little bit of Gala Coins.
The one problem I’ve had at the start is the difficulty in finding information about the different buildings and products. This made planning my first town difficult, and led to epic fails, like building a refinery before I had any wind turbines, and having to pay my worker $200 a minute to do nothing while I scrambled to get my wood to build the turbines.
To save you similar frustrations, I thought I would put down here all that I have learned about the game, the various buildings, and what they need to produce their end products. Hopefully with these posts, you will have all the information you need, to plan your production and start earning quickly!
What is Town Star?
- As mentioned, it’s like Farmville or Hay Day, but you can earn Gala or Town coins playing this game (cryptocurrencies that are convertible to USD)
- Build the most efficient and revenue-maximising farm, and earn stars to get to a higher rank!

NFT and Gala Power Requirements to earn Town Coin
- You will need to place 1 or more NFTs on your farm, and Gala Power to earn Town Coin.
What is NFT?
- NFT stands for non-fungible token.
- An example of an NFT in Town Star is an Express Depot (which sends goods faster than the depot given in-game). It earns 1 Town Coin every Daily Challenge.
- Another NFT example is an Alfa Fountain, which can give surrounding crops water passively. It earns 8 Town Coins every Daily Challenge.
- You can buy NFTs at the Gala Games Store, or on opensea.io (cheaper than at the Gala Games Store).
- The more NFTs you place on the farm, the more Town Coins earned every daily challenge. For example, if you put 1 Express Depot and 1 Alfa Fountain on your farm, they will earn you 9 Town Coins every daily challenge.
What is Gala Power?
- Gala Power allows you to place NFTs on your farm.
- 1 Gala Power = 1 NFT, i.e. you can place 1 NFT with every Gala Power you have.
- To get to Level 1 Gala Power, you need 1 Gala Coin (about USD0.45 to USD0.5 today).
- To level up to Level 2 Gala Power and above, you will need 5,000 coins per level (~USD2,500). For example, Level 2 Gala Power = 5,001 Gala Coins, Level 3 Gala Power = 10,001 Gala Coins
