A strategy game in your browser. Build villages, train an army, join alliances and fight for the crown. Nothing to download.

By the world's speed: 195 days at x1, 75 at x3, 51 at x5, 33 at x10 and 24 at x20.

Each tribe has its own way – the "Tribes" page shows each one's strengths and units, from the game's numbers. The Gauls or the Romans suit beginners especially well.

At the start of the game nobody can attack you (72 hours at x1, less in a fast world). Attack, raid or scout another player and you give it up at once.

Your villages keep producing, but you can be attacked and raided. A dual can play for you, and the game also has a vacation mode.

Each field produces by its level, times the world's speed. Oases, resource complexes, relics and the hero add to that. From the crop, what the inhabitants and the army eat is taken off.

Tiles on the map with animals. You annex an oasis with a raid that has the hero in it (you need a hero's mansion): all the animals die and the hero survives – and the oasis is yours. Each oasis adds 25% or 50% to its resource, up to 200% per resource.

For one gold coin the village's resources are redistributed – exactly what the action needs. The total never drops.

When net crop is negative and the granary runs empty – units starve. Always check that net crop stays positive.

In an attack the battle goes to the end, and rams, catapults and chiefs can be used. In a raid the goal is the resources – both sides lose less.

Send only scouts, and choose what to see: resources and troops, or defences and troops. There is no battle – the scouts come back with a report.

Some of the soldiers who fall in battle are wounded instead of killed, and can be healed and returned to the army. The Spartans' great hospital saves more.

Conquer a crown village, build the crown building in it in 4 stages, and hold it for 24 hours. If nobody manages it by the end of the round – the Valorians win.

You need a level 1 embassy and an invitation from the alliance's leader. To found your own alliance – a level 3 embassy.

A player alone is an easy target. In an alliance you defend each other, send resources and plan attacks – and the crown can only be taken together.

Another person who plays with you on the same game account – for example while you sleep. Add a dual by their lobby ID, with no limit on how many. Only the owner adds and removes them, and every action is recorded with who did it.

The game is free. In worlds that sell gold you can buy some – for comfort and shortcuts – but you can play and win without paying.

Yes. One account on this site takes you into every world, and in each world you have one game account.

On the sign-in page: "Forgot password". The link comes by email.

In "My account", on the world's card: "Delete the account in this world". It is deleted after 72 hours, and until then you can cancel.

Inside the game – the support button. On the site – the "Contact" page. Exploiting a bug instead of reporting it may get the account blocked.
