If you’re chasing the elusive 99 Years achievement in 9 Kings, forget brute force—this guide is all about outsmarting the game. With the right strategy, you can hit Year 100 without endless grinding. Here’s how.
The Core Strategy: Convert, Don’t Kill
This build is built around Converter Towers, turning enemies into allies instead of wasting resources trying to overpower them. Why fight when you can recruit?
Converter Towers & Beacons: Your Winning Combo
- Spam Level 1 Converters Early
Don’t rush to upgrade them to Level 3—focus on mass-producing Level 1 towers first. Higher levels don’t significantly improve fire rate, so quantity trumps quality early on. - Pair with Beacons
Beacons boost your towers’ attack speed, meaning faster conversions. The quicker you turn enemies, the smoother your run. - Bonus Chaos: Bombers & Quarries
With the right perk, converted enemies (like Bombers) can wreak havoc for you. Quarries might add extra damage when Bombers explode, but converters do most of the heavy lifting.
Why This Works
- Bypasses Enemy HP
Converting ignores health pools—even bosses fall victim. - Turns Threats into Assets
That swarm of rats? Now they’re your suicide bombers. Efficiency at its finest.
Final Thoughts
This strategy flips the game’s difficulty by making enemies work for you. Focus on converters early, support them with Beacons, and let your new “allies” clear the path.
