Playing by Appointment reported on Dec 12, 2023
Not generally. However, if you haven't played in a long time and come back, or in certain other rare cases, you get an unlimited energy booster on a timer. This timer will run down even when the game is closed, meaning you must play now to benefit from it.
Daily Rewards reported on Dec 12, 2023
Daily login counter with rewards.
Wait To Play reported on Dec 12, 2023
You have energy. However, it's possible to make this irrelevant without spending money by upgrading your energy cap to the extreme.
Fear of Missing Out reported on Dec 12, 2023
