| Light | 900 / 12,000 | Level 1 a porch light over your pedestals; level 2 adds a sweeping flashlight. Lights only spot intruders. |
| Dog | 40,000 | A guard dog sleeps in your yard and follows the normal dog rules: wakes on noise, chases, catches. |

What to buy first
Slots first: another earning buddy beats everything early. Then Lock, which is cheap and slows every thief. Add Light before the dog. Keep buying Den Decor between rebirths: it is the mid-block coin sink that keeps a purchase in reach about every two minutes.
Lid seal and shield
On demand, the Lid seals your den for 30 seconds (cooldown 90 s). After you are robbed a 60 s shield blocks grabs completely. Pair them with gadgets.
