Welcome to this beginner's guide for Forge of Empires. If you're new to the game, you're in the right place. In this video, I'll guide you through the first steps you need to take to start your civilization, from building your first structures to quickly advancing through the early ages. We'll cover the game interface, resources, and some useful tips to develop your city efficiently.
So, let's dive in. Forge of Empires is a strategy game where your goal is to build and develop a city that evolves through different historical eras. You begin in the Stone Age with a few basic resources and empty land to build your first structures. Your first priority is to build houses for your population and production buildings to gather resources. Residential buildings will increase your population, while production buildings, like the Hunter's Hut, will provide you with the first supplies.
One important thing to note is that the transition from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age happens quite rapidly. Let's take a quick look at the user interface to understand how to navigate the game efficiently. At the top of the screen you'll find your main resources, coins and supplies which are essential for your city's development. You can also see your available population and the happiness level of your citizens.
On the left side, there's the quest button, which will guide your progress. Completing quests will reward you with valuable resources and help you advance faster. At the bottom of the screen you have the construction menu where you can find all the available buildings.
It's important to plan your space well as each building needs both land and roads to function efficiently. In the early stages of the game, you need to focus on balancing residential, production, and cultural buildings. Houses, like huts, generate coins and provide population regularly. Production buildings, such as workshops, produce supplies, while cultural buildings, like monuments, increase the happiness of your citizens. Thank you for watching.
Another important aspect is expanding your city. You'll have the opportunity to purchase or conquer new land to build more structures. Prioritize essential buildings in the early ages, as expansion can be costly.
To progress through the ages you need to research new technologies. This is done using forge points which you receive regularly. Make sure to use these points efficiently to unlock essential technologies that will give you access to new buildings and units. Also, keep an eye on the game's quests.
Not only do they guide you, but they also offer valuable rewards. Another important tip is to focus on producing coins and supplies. Continuously upgrading your residential and production buildings will allow you to gather resources quickly and progress smoothly.
Another key aspect of Forge of Empires is optimizing your city. Efficiently placing buildings is crucial. Make sure that all buildings are connected to roads and that you have enough space to build more as you advance. A happy city produces more resources so don't neglect cultural buildings and decorations.
In the long run, this will accelerate your growth. These are the basics for getting started in Forge of Empires. In the early ages, the key to success is building structures that provide resources, constantly researching technologies, and optimizing your city to save space and increase efficiency.
