For a long time, my favorite game has been Gala Games’ Town Star. It’s not like other crypto games I’ve tried, where you can play and earn! Gala coins can be earned if you perform well enough in the weekly competitions.
The first issue I ran into was difficulty locating information on various structures and goods, which is why I wrote this article so you can learn from my mistakes and pick up this game faster than I did.
Planning my first town was difficult due to a lack of sufficient or accurate information. This resulted in amusing mishaps such as building a bakery before I had any cows and having to pay my baker $50 per minute to sit idle while I tried to set up milk production in order to enable butter, which is required for all bakery goods.
To save you time and aggravation, I decided to write down everything I’ve learned about the bakery and cakery, as well as what they need to make their final goods. With this guide, you should have access to all of the information you require in a single location. With this information, you’ll be able to prepare baguettes, cakes, and pumpkin pies from the first day of the event.
Water Requirements for the Cakery & Bakery Crops of Town Star
Okay, if you’ve spent even five minutes playing Town Star, you’re probably familiar with the game’s basic crops. But, in order to save time, let us start with them.
Wheat: You start with two wheat fields. Although this appears to be a simple and uninteresting crop, it is used to produce flour in the bakery and cakery. A wheat field requires 3 water to grow and takes 20 seconds to yield under ideal conditions.
Pumpkin: Pumpkins are only needed for one item in the game: pumpkin pie. Growing pumpkins is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is also difficult because each area requires 20 units of water.
Because you can’t have all of this irrigation passively, you’ll have to rely on farmers to water your fields manually. Remember to include wind turbines for this purpose. Pumpkins mature at a slower rate than other crops.
Brine: Although not technically a crop, brine “grows” on a salt field and is treated as such. When placed near an ocean tile, each salt field requires three times the amount of water and produces the most salt per minute.
Tree farm: While not technically a crop in the same sense as the other two, it is critical to keep wood production going, not only for construction but also for use in windmills and baguettes. Under ideal conditions, each Tree Farm consumes 7 water and takes 20 seconds to develop.
Sugarcane: Sugar is made by extracting sugar from sugarcane, a plant that grows best near a source of passive water. Each sugarcane field requires 8 water to grow and can be harvested in 20 seconds if grown under ideal conditions.
Crop / Water Requirement / Optimal Growth Time

- Water Requirement: 3 units
- Optimal Growth Time: 20s
Sugar Cane Field
- Water Requirement: 8 units
- Optimal Growth Time: 20s
Pumpkin Patch
- Water Requirement: 20 units
- Optimal Growth Time: 60s
Tree Farm
- Water Requirement: 7 units
- Optimal Growth Time: 60s
Brine
- Water Requirement: 3 units
- Optimal Growth Time: 20s
Town Star Windmilling Facts
The first few sales from your farm, which are usually the raw products you gathered, are not worth the gas it takes to deliver them. You’ll only get $3000-$4000 per trade, which isn’t enough to start an economy.
Set up a windmill as soon as possible (far away from your crops so that they can produce more light) and start processing your crops into more profitable items. This will allow the Windmill to produce materials at an optimal speed.
Flour: You can also grind your wheat to make flour. Each flour requires 5 wheat and 3 wood, for a total of 10 ingredients. A batch of ten flour will fetch $22,500.
Sugar: The windmill requires 6 sugarcane and 3 wood, and the result is sugar. Each batch of ten sugar is valued at $31,500.
Salt: Salt can be made by combining 6 brine and 3 wood in a Windmill. As a side note, I don’t believe this is how salt is produced. But that’s how Town Star works. A batch of ten salt costs $25,500.

Cakery & Bakery Animal Buildings: Chicken Coop and Cow Barn
To make cakes, you’ll also need milk and eggs, as well as flour, salt, and sugar. The chicken coop, milk barn, and rancher house are all located in the ‘ranch’ section.
The amount of water required for milk and egg production is 3 and 1, respectively, so make sure your animal lodgings are regularly watered by placing them near hydrated tiles such as ponds, rivers, or oceans.
Pollution has a negative impact on animals, so keep them as far away from industrial structures as possible. They also require feed, which is made in a feed mill in a 1:1 ratio from wheat and stored in a trough. The ranchers will take the wheat from the silos and place it in the feed mill before gathering the feed and delivering it to a trough from which the animals may consume it.
Milk
- Requirements: 8 feed, 1 wood, 3 water
- Price: $40,000
- Required for: Butter
Egg
- Requirements: 3 feed, 1 wood, 1 water
- Price: $16,500
- Required for: Dough, Batter
Butter, Dough, and Baguettes are all made in a Bakery.
Once you’ve ensured consistent sugar, salt, flour, milk, and egg production, you can devote yourself to end-game structures like the bakery and cakery.
Because these are expensive to set up and run, it is critical that you do not invest in them too soon. The more difficult items (Tier 3, Tier 4, and Tier 5 craft items) will, however, generate a significant amount of money and points.
They will also save you money on gasoline because you will not have to send out delivery trucks as frequently, but when you do make a trade, it will count.
To construct a Bakery, you will require the following materials: 5 lumber, 5 wood, and 5 energy. It will cost you $200,000 to put one down and $50 per minute in wages to operate one.
Butter, dough, and baguettes are all made at the Town Star Bakery.
Each bakery product’s ingredients are listed in the image above. The humble wheat, which you may have thought was too cheap after the first hour of play, suddenly regains prominence.
Each butter requires two units of milk and eight units of feed, for a total of 16 units of wheat. When it comes to baguettes, each one requires 4 units of butter, 10 units of flour, and 2 eggs, which translates into the mathematical formula of 120 wheat (64+50+6). Of course, you’ll need ten of each item to sell, which means you’ll need enough money to save up for these more expensive items.
Ten baguettes, on the other hand, sell for a whopping $913,000! The earning potential is enormous, but in order to realize it, you must run a very stable and smooth operation.
The most difficult problem I face is balancing all of the different components, and if you make too much of one ingredient, it will clog your silos or storehouses, effectively halting your entire operation.

The Town Star Cakery
We’ve already looked at the Bakery; now let’s take a look at another structure: the Cakery.
The construction requirements are very similar to those of the Bakery: 5 lumber, 5 wood, and 5 energy. It costs $250,000 to put one down and $50 per minute to run it.
As shown in the chart below, the bakery produces three items: batter, cake, and pumpkin pie.

Conclusion On The Ultimate Bakery and Cakery Production Guide for Town Star
Making baguettes or cakes is, as you can see, a time-consuming and difficult process. Balancing crops and ingredients for baguettes or cakes is also a challenge. They do, however, pay extremely well.
This, I believe, is why Town Star is a more satisfying game than many other blockchain games, in which the gameplay appears to be an afterthought, consisting of clicking a ‘mine’ button every few minutes or purchasing land or properties and simply collecting rent.
Because it is simpler than other bakery items, the pumpkin pie dish appears to be the simplest option. The issue is that each pumpkin uses up to 20 units of water. It is difficult to expand the pumpkin crop operation. If you want to pursue this path, be sure to include wind pumps for irrigation, which will have to be done frequently by the farmers.
