Hello Kings and Queens,
The update to 1.40 will take place on Dec 2nd. This time we introduce a brand new "Aid" feature that will make it possible to help out your friends and guild mates in a more convenient way - you can now polish or motivate directly from your own city!
Aid
You can now polish or motivate a random (almost) building in the city of another player by simply clicking a button below his portrait on the social bar. This will not require visiting the city. Attack button in the social bar has been moved to a small button and the Aid button is now in place of the previous Attack button:
- Aid button automatically motivates or polishes a building of the respective player without visiting him.
- How exactly the order of aid works? It's very simple system:
- Three buildings: “Shrine of Knowledge”, “Tigers’ Den” and “Oasis” (most recent age) are prioritized.
- If there are no such buildings available or all of them are already polished/motivated, the feature will enhance a random building from the most recent age.
- You will also find the Aid button in the Event history - if someone helped you, you can instantly return their kindness.
- It is still possible to visit a player and choose which action to do and which building to polish/motivate. Which way will you choose? This is entirely up to you!
Treasure Hunt
A new quest is now available in the form of a Treasure Hunt. The hunt includes random prices, displayed in the lower right of the screen. Come back at the appropriate times to find and collect a prize!
Other changes and improvements
- The "moon" icon is back for goods buildings.
- The registration form has been slightly improved to make the registration process easier and more understandable.
- Tutorial graphical assets have been adjusted, to make sure that new players do not have troubles understanding the tutorial steps.

- Some battle tooltips have been slightly improved.
