Ascend vs Evolution vs Ascension
Requirement Checklist
- Staircase or stairway route is completed.
- All required tycoon buttons are purchased.
- Cash and investor rebuild speed is strong enough after reset.
- Forever Purchase target is chosen before pressing the reset.
- Evolution progress is not too low for the rebuild you expect.
Reward and Cost Table
When Not to Ascend
Forever Purchase target is unclear
If you cannot explain why the permanent button compounds through future resets, wait.
Rebuild speed is weak
Higher future prices can turn a prestige reset into a slow rebuild if your route is not ready.
Evolution loop is too low
Some sources point to Evolution 6 readiness, but this remains a community planning signal.
