(there was no American server when I started playing)
ALL POSTS SHOULD BE ON TOPIC. ANY OFFTOPIC POSTS WILL BE ASKED TO BE REMOVED.
List of Current players and their towns: KP-
USG- Honyos 62:51
Renassiance81- Wareios 35:93 Smewios 36:94
DrPenguin-
BananaTelephone- Ormitia 17:51 Lideos- 16:51
JollyGreen- Sluzios 72:43
yellownotepad- Gourryos 76:10
Phriend- Lerytia 21:83
BluntMaster Onauos 41:62
(if you are playing it is your job to inform me of your island and your town locations if you want to be listed on here, either PM me on here or in the game)
So this is a game my buddies and I have been playing for awhile now. I know theres a couple Shroomery guys playing as well but figured id extend my recruitment over here
Its a basic nation building game. However its a broswer game, meaning you dont have to install and software
And as you will see at the bottom, our alliance Titans is the best in the game, I am currently in TTN-W
If you join, make sure you join Alpha server or you will be playing in a different world.
www.ikariam.org
please keep all discussion relevant to the game! Thank you

If you have any questions feel free to ask. Your best bet is running through the beginners guide. Its a very simple game but it does take a little bit of time to really get your towns going. I have been playing for months and now have 5 towns, working towards a 6th

Nah its not that kind of game. Since everything is done time based. its not a game that you would sit around all day playing
I usually log on 3-4 times a day for about 5 minutes at each time. And I somehow became a top 450 player investing that much time. Its laid back

Yeah I told you, it was a slow game. Wait until each building takes you over 24 hours to complete. But thats what makes it more enjoyable too. It doesnt cater to people who want to invest 12 hours of their day into a game
What resource do you have? You find this by clicking your island view; you will have wine, marble, sulfur, or crystal
What are your island name and coordinates? this is found up in the top left corner of the town view. example Enita 44:12
I'll be able to defend you until you get stronger and also help out with resources as needed

Yeah if you dont log in for a month you account becomes labeled inactive.
You should be able to resume an inactive account unless it was less unactive for more than 3 months
If you know you are going to be inactive for a long time, you can put yourself into "vacation mode" and it pretty much pauses the game for you

yeah its nothing you have to be committed to. you just log in and play whenever u want. only times u play longer than u want is when u decide to attack someone and thats only if u want to watch ur attack happen

Many of you guys have been asking me how to play. My best advice at the beginning is to read the beginners guide, its really short and provides your basic info.
Then if you have any specific questions, post them on here

yeah its definitely not the type of game where you can become powerful in a couple of days. but you dont have to invest much time per day.
its weird. you'll catch on. the further you go the longer the buildings take, but you also start getting more towns. like I have 5 that I manage and about to get a 6th here soon.

I created a new account since I forgot the old one and they didn't send me my password...I am now: annabanana.
argh, I also couldn't find you...and can I name my town...?
blah I am such a n00b.
you can find me easiest by going to the "highscore" tab and searching for my player name "killerpicklez"
make sure you send me a message with your island name and your town coordinates. If you have a question about this, refer to the 1st page of this thread
Be patient guys, things start to develop
Have you figured out how to make your workers collect resources? each island will have 2 resources wood, and something else.
you check your budget by clicking on your amount of gold.

Yeah at the beginning you can get quite a bit setting up done. but where I am at now. I generally have LARGE projects where it takes a couple days to get all the supplies to upgrade something. so I just log on, move some stuff around and log out
unless i feel like dominating someone like I did yesterday. I have a top 150 military in the game yo LOL
but yeah this kid tried to break some treaty with me, so I leveled all 3 of his towns.

You click in the island view up at the top. and then you clock on the resource you wish to harvest. Lumber or another resource; could be marble, wine, glass, or sulfur
other people who have already been playing? what resource is on your island?

attacks wont happen on smaller towns because they have nothing to gain
the only point of attacks is to steal goods and defeat your army. no damage is ever done to the town infrastructure. so the worst that can ever happen is, you have to rebuild your army
