• Cool new and unique structure!

Part 1: Building your Dam

1. Once you receive the quest to build the Dam, click on the quest icon to bring up the quest requirements.
   
   

   

2. Clicking on the "Place" button will show you where to place the Dam:
   

   

   Note: You will have to expand on the left side of the river to where you have to place the Dam, expanding on the right side is not necessary; in fact, once you place the Dam, you will get some land for free!
   

   

3. After placing your Dam, click on it to bring up a list of the items needed to start constructing it.
   

   

4. Once you have gathered all the materials, click on the "Start Building" building button to continue construction.
   

   

5. Finishing your Dam will require 15 energy, but once you complete it you will receive 31 energy bolts!
   

   

   Note: If you remove the Dam after placing it, but before you finish it's construction, it will go back into you inventory and you will lose any progress you have made. Removing the Dam once you have finished building it is not possible.

Part 2: Using your Dam

1. Now that you have your very own energy Dam, supply it daily to increase your total maximum energy by up to 7 points! Click on the Dam to supply it with 400:
   

   

2. And watch your maximum energy increase by 1!
   

   

3. Your Dam will be ready for more goods 12 hours after you supply it. Once it's ready, make sure to supply it within 48 hours to keep your energy bonus. You can hover over the Dam to see how much time you have left to resupply it.
