Reading order
Read First waves before you spend anything. Then use the buy order when a new header color unlocks. Open the boss order when the HUD wave is approaching 10, 20, 30, or another printed boss wave.
Which numbers stay
Shop and trap prices are one restock from 27 September 2026. Index prices are the pills on the cards. If those two disagree with your screen, trust the card or row in front of you.
Which Build a Dino Defense 🦖 guides are published?
First waves: buttons, green cards, and Titanhorn
Learn the four top buttons, claim the five green index cards, and treat wave 10 as Titanhorn.
Buy order from wave 1 to Titanosaurus
Spend in header order: green cards, Pachycephalosaurus at wave 13, Ankylosaurus at wave 37, then the pill you are missing.
Boss order from wave 10 to wave 250
Boss and mini-boss order from Titanhorn at wave 10 through Grovebreaker at wave 250, using the wave printed on each card.

The recorded HUD is Shop, Fight or Stop, Base, 1x, Abilities, Shop, and Dinos. There is no Codes button in that layout.
Dino Shop and Elite Traps from one restock
One Dino Shop restock and one Elite Traps restock, with the sentence and price that were on each row.
Royal Egg rates and the Frost Egg
Royal Egg rates from the hatch panel, the 79 hexagon cost, and the separate Frost Egg label at $10000.
Later waves: speed, boss HP, and timer rows
After wave 37, fix speed with Dimorphodon, respect boss HP in the tens of thousands, and only then spend on a timer row.
