Heybit Empire is a war game. This means you take the role of a king and try to build a big empire. The game moves in real time so, you must log in frequently, to check your empire status and to face your enemies.
Any new player has a 500 bonus points to use as he wishes. You can use it to buy armies and raid early in the game.
The rest of the story is well known. You must grow and grow and gain the respect of your enemies.
Some big lines
Create your first town anywhere you wish on the map. Later on, you can create other colonies to expand your empire. To create a new town you need 10 colonists and a Castle.
Build your farms, logs or mines and upgrade them constantly, to have lots of ressources for your development.
Upgrade buildings to have a balanced economy that will later on support you and your allies.
Forge weapons that you can use to train units, or sell them for resources or other goods in your marketplace. Note that to make a soldier, you must first forge the weapons he needs. Weapons or horses are also good marketplace trading items.
To train a unit, you must first research its abilities in the Academy. It cannot be any easier than this. You can also upgrade a unit by upgrading the weapons and armour that it uses. You can get theese upgrades in the Blacksmith.
Create or join existing alliances. Declare war, make peace, all for you to define a political plan for world domination.
Set your taxes. Choose between getting more gold from your population, but less of the other resources, or the other way arround.
Train big armies to defend your borders or to conquer and expand your empire.
Stay in touch with all players via the integrated message system or by creating a forum for your alliance on the official website forum.
