As you earn more Project Points you will reach higher project tiers:
You have a limited time to complete an Epic Project once you start it. When the timer runs out the project tier you reached (Turtle, Llama, or Cheetah) will determine what type of building you get.
Once time is up, tap Upgrade to create your Epic Building. Epic Buildings hold more citizens and produce parts that can be used to speed up crafting in your city.
You can only work on one Epic Project at a time. After you complete that Epic Project, there is a cooldown before you can start another.
There are 3 types of collectible Speed Up Token Parts that your Epic Buildings produce.
You will need several of a token type in order to make a Speed Up Token.
Tap the Speed Up Token Parts above Epic Buildings to collect them. A counter will appear to display how many you have collected.
The type of token you get depends on your Epic Building type. For example, Cheetah Buildings produce Cheetah Speed Up Token Parts and Llama Epic Buildings produce Llama Speed Up Token Parts.
Once you have a Speed Up Token you can accelerate the production of items in Commercial buildings.
Tap a Commercial building and then tap the Speed Up Token icon. It will give you the menu of the Speed up Token types you have available. Drag one of them to your production queue to accelerate production.
The Department of Epic Projects stores all of your Speed up Tokens. You can tap it to see how many you have available.
