Intel

Intel is the resource gained by moving up lands. It increases your production by a %. Some upgrades increase the effectiveness of intel by 1%. It requires a few tens of billions of coins earned in a land to get your first intel. The coins required to earn more intel increases as you progress, based on the sum of your current and gathered intel. You can gain a maximum of 3x the intel needed, but it's usually not worth waiting for it, as intel gain slows way down after reaching the target.
