Beginner FAQ — first hour
New players ask about cash loop order, LemonDash phone, and when systems unlock — not ascension or Purity yet.
- Start: Juicer → Cup Stand → Sugar Mixer → Lily Gumdrop automator.
- LemonDash: reply YES to first text for ~$83,000 bonus.
- Depot: buy roof, walls, lights — hidden buttons need factory walk.
- Do not enter sewer until stand income makes vine rewards meaningful.
- Guides: Beginner Route, Stand Upgrade, LemonDash, Lemon Depot.

- UFO Key: 12-step route → Good Samaritan Badge (+2% per investor).
