To do just about anything on Lioden, you need to have a sizeable pile of Silver and Gold... Beetles, of course! Silver Beetles and Gold Beetles are the two main currencies on the site. If you want to expand your pride, stud with outside leaders, or deck your pride out in decor, you'll need to have the funds to cover your extravagant lifestyle.

Games  

A great way to start earning currency fast is by playing games each day! You unfortunately won't become a millionaire overnight by gaming, but the rewards you can earn aren't too shabby.

Trivia can earn you up to 20 SB for each question you answer correctly, if you choose questions from the "Difficult" category. Don't worry if you're lacking on Lioden knowledge—our Trivia page contains an answer key to all of that strange sphinx's questions!
For Trivia, you'll definitely want to play on "Difficult" three times each rollover. So long as you use the answer key, you've just earned yourself a nice 60 SB!

Serengeti Shuffle has a myriad of different prizes, including pure SB and items that sell for a pretty penny. If you've ever played Bejeweled, that's basically what Serengeti Shuffle is like. You'll want to play fast and make quick matches if you're aiming to get a high score.

A score between 2000 to 2499 can potentially grant you 20 to 50 SB. A score between 2500 to 2999 offers 100 SB. 3000 to 3499 can give a nice 200 SB. Once you reach 3500+, one of the prizes you can earn includes 400 SB! Even if you don't end up winning a bundle of SB every time you play, it's highly advised to make Serengeti Shuffle part of your daily routine. The game itself is rather short. You're given a meagre 120 seconds to make as many matches as you can, and when time runs out, or your board has to be reshuffled three times, you're out!

Black Stallions, Dove Feasts, Giant Tortoises, and Honeycombs are valued prizes from Serengeti Shuffle. While they can all be earned or found elsewhere, Serengeti Shuffle is the main way to get them outside of event shops and the Gorilla Enclave. Depending on what the current event is, and of course accounting for market fluctuations, these items can all sell at a price of 500 SB to 2 GB each!

The Silver Beetle Raffle doesn't always pay off, but it never hurts to enter it each day. For a cost of 10 SB, you're entered into a pool with hundreds of other players. Each day at 4am Lioden time, three lucky winners are randomly selected from this list of entrants, and they all end up 1000 SB richer!

You have a one-in-three chance of winning a prize from Cups. Unfortunately, this comes at a cost of 5 SB in order to pick up a cup, and you can play Cups once every hour. It's a fun and simple way to pass the time, and it sure does feel rewarding when you get lucky enough to pick up a cup that contains a prize! In terms of it being worth the investment and time, though, you may want to pass on Cups. Its prizes aren't considered valuable or desirable enough to warrant how much you may end up spending each day!

The Slot Machine is rather high risk and low reward. You can spin the Slot Machine five times each hour, and each spin costs you 50 SB. It's very, very easy to dump your entire SB fund into the Slot Machine—be wary of the "sunk cost" fallacy!

There are some prizes exclusive to the Slot Machine that can sell for decent amounts. This is the only place to get a Great Tit or Red Cock, as well as the elusive Jellyfish item. Energy Boosts, Lion Meat, and Grains of Paradise are jackpot rewards, but may not be worth the investment it could take to win them.
Play this at your own risk. Seriously.. it's addicting!

Last, but not least, is Whack-A-Snake. The biggest draws to this game are the exclusive backgrounds and decors that can be won only from Whack-A-Snake—nowhere else! It does offer an SB prize, but only for scores between 100 to 299, and in very little amounts: 10 SB and 25 SB.
Whack-A-Snake has a higher skill barrier than all other games, and it's definitely the least accessible out of all of them. It runs on Flash, which is no longer supported on most modern browsers. If you have access to a browser or device that can still safely use Flash and you're good with a mouse, drawing tablet, or touch screen, why not give it a shot? It generally takes 6 to 12 minutes to earn a high enough score to nab a decent prize.

Many of Whack-A-Snake's background and decor rewards can sell for a moderate amount of SB and GB. This is due in part to the fact that the game cannot be played by many people (whether due to lack of accessibility, skill, or time) as well as the large pool of potential prizes one can earn. Some branches and trades list the rarer decors up for 10 GB per item!

Selling Items  

You can make a decent income by selling extra items you come across whilst exploring, hunting, or patrolling, especially if you set timers and efficiently use up your energy. Food and toys are always hot commodities and are constantly needed by others who have to maintain their prides. Certain food and toys are more valuable than others, whether due to their potential to give stats, or them being a required component in an expensive and desirable crafting recipe.

In terms of food, most players value food at 5 to 10 SB per one use. Critters and low-filling foods are not as valuable as bigger, bulkier carcasses, but they still have their roles! The Quest Snake often asks for miscellaneous critters for his quests, so make sure you hold onto those Gerbil, Meerkat, Otter, and Rat Carcasses.

If you have a smaller pride and manage to send out 20 successful hunts in one day, you could walk away with lots of extra carcasses. Many players are willing to buy a trade containing 100 uses of high-filling carcasses for a fee of 1200 SB or 1 GB!

Common, lower-value lions are actually highly utilised and desired for players who want to be
