Sanctuary level
Sanctuary 4
Tutorial · The First Candle
Sanctuary 1–8
To upgrade your Sanctuary from level 3 to 4, you need Lumber Depot 1, Granary 1, Herb Storage 1 and 19 Clinic stars. It costs 2.6K Grain and 2.6K Timber and takes 5m before any speed-ups. It raises your heroes’ level cap from 5 to 15. It also opens the Walls, the Gear Workshop, the Explorer's Camp, the Tavern and Squad 4.

- Lumberyard: you can have 2 now
- Herb Garden: you can have 2 now
It also lets 5 of the buildings you already have go higher. From Sanctuary 7 on, a building can only be as high as your Sanctuary, which is why the Sanctuary sets the pace for everything.
Where it fits
Sanctuary 4 is part of the tutorial (Sanctuary 1–8). Your first hours behind the walls. Follow the quests, learn the buildings and claim every free reward.
Next up, Sanctuary 5 asks for Walls 3, and takes 10m. Getting those ready while this upgrade runs keeps your builders busy.
