Constructing Your Empire in Evony: The King's Return

Before you actually dive into the game, you have the freedom to select from a fantastic range of seven diverse cultures. These cultures are inspired by mighty civilizations from history, including the European nations, America, and more.


But hold on, these cultures aren't just about appearance. Actually, each one comes with its own unique set of features. These features act like bonuses in the gameplay, enhancing factors such as attack damage, resource output, and other cool stuff.


To make things super convenient, we've provided a handy table below that lists out all the awesome features for each culture:

Just remember, there's no such thing as a flawless culture in the game. It's true that certain cultures may hold certain advantages over others to some extent. Take Korea, for example. Their ability to produce lumber at a faster rate can greatly assist players in constructing more empire structures, resulting in quicker development. However, even with these advantages, there isn't a single definitive best culture in the game.

As a general tip, pick the culture that best suits your goal for the empire. If you want to focus on ramping up food production, then choose Japan. However, if you want to have a better attack rate for your ground troops, pick China.

Building Blocks for Success: Exploring the Essentials of Basic Resources and Buildings

Here are the three vital resources you need to develop your city:


Food: This resource is essential for training troops, whether they are ground, ranged, or mounted. It is also a requirement for constructing buildings in your empire. Food is produced in farms.


Lumber: A primary ingredient for constructing and upgrading buildings, lumber plays a significant role in city development. Saw mills are responsible for producing this resource.


Stone: While not overly important in the early stages of the game, stone becomes crucial as your empire grows stronger. It is mainly used for training high-level troops. Quarries are responsible for producing stone.


Remember, managing these resources effectively will lead to the successful growth and prosperity of your city.


To generate more resources, you have two options: either construct additional facilities or upgrade the existing ones individually. Keep in mind that resource-producing facilities can only be built outside the empire's walls.

To improve buildings, you typically need a specific amount of food and lumber. Occasionally, certain buildings can only be upgraded once your Keep (aka your main headquarters) reaches a particular level. The duration of an upgrade varies, ranging from a few seconds to a few hours, depending on the desired building level. If you're in a hurry, you can instantly complete the upgrade by using gems. Additionally, when you construct a new building, the initial two upgrades are on the house. However, for subsequent upgrades, you'll need to spend diamonds.

Mastering the Craft: Leveraging the Academy to Boost Production Success

Once you've upgraded your buildings with the necessary resources, it's good enough for a while. However, if you want to boost your production efficiency, you'll have to invest in research at the Academy.


The Academy is a special building that allows you to enhance various aspects of your empire internally. All you need to do is spend some gold coins on research. There are eight categories available, each offering a range of fields to delve into. If you're looking to upgrade your resource production, head over to the "Advancement" section.

Keep in mind that you'll need to meet certain conditions in order to unlock further upgrades. These conditions might include reaching a certain level for your Keep or Academy, or even completing one branch of research to a specific level. Each branch can be upgraded a maximum of 10 times, so choose wisely and strategize accordingly.

Gain Extra Resources from Mysterious Puzzles

Resources don't just come from farms, sawmills, or quarries. An awesome way to gather a generous amount of resources is by indulging in a thrilling series of puzzles known as Mysterious Puzzles.


In Mysterious Puzzles, your task is to carefully "pull" pins in a specific order and timing to overcome obstacles that can harm the character. It's like a mini-game that relies on trial and error, so don't hesitate to experiment with different solutions until you find the perfect one.


The ultimate aim is to pave the way for the character to reach a valuable treasure chest and complete the stage. As a reward for your accomplishments, you'll receive resources that can be redeemed later through your handy "Items" feature.

Conquer the Quests: Unleashing Your Inner Adventurer

The game offers a wide array of main and side quests that come with cool rewards whenever you reach certain milestones in the game. These milestones can vary from levelling up your buildings to a certain degree or training a specific number of troops.


All the resources you earn from completing quests can be conveniently found in your "Items" menu. Alongside resources, quests can also grant you "speedups" which can speed up various processes within the game. Additionally, quests can grant you XP that you can either use to level up yourself or to boost the abilities of your generals.

Detailed Buildings Overview:

Wall: Is there anything more crucial than the mighty wall that shields your empire and keeps the enemy at bay? Nope, not really! Your wall should be at the top of your upgrading list. Besides fortifying your defence, it also offers some extra perks like collecting cool gifts and keeping an eye out for any fishy business.


When you level up your empire's wall, it boosts both the overall defence HP and the capacity of your traps. So, if you've been repeatedly witnessing your cities fall into enemy hands too easily, fret not! Now you know exactly what needs to be done.

Keep: The Keep holds equal, if not greater, importance compared to your wall. It stands tall in the heart of your empire, resembling a massive castle. The Keep always maintains a higher level than any other building.


If your intention is to upgrade buildings that have either matched or come close to the Keep's level, then you must raise the level of your Keep as well. By increasing the level of your Keep, you gain access to new buildings, increase your resources such as gold, expand your general capacity, and much more.


However, be prepared for the fact that upgrading your Keep may require a considerable amount of time to complete. Nonetheless, the end result will undoubtedly prove to be well worth the wait.


Academy: This is the place where you can dig into some serious upgrade research! The Academy is a crucial building for your progress as it empowers your empire with mighty upgrades, enhancing its overall strength. So, if you're eager to level up swiftly, just focus on stepping up your game with the Academy and make frequent use of its incredible potential.

Conclusion: Build Your Empire and Conquer!

Rev Up Your Progress: Unleashing the Power of Speed-Ups

Players in Evony, whether they are playing for free or spending real money, have the opportunity to receive numerous Speedups. These Speedups are crucial resources that can greatly enhance your gameplay. However, it's worth noting that the game tends to unintentionally waste these valuable Speedups. Let's say you have 24 minutes of research, and you choose to speed up 20 minutes. In this case, you'll have only 4 minutes of Speedup left.

If you find yourself running low on Speedups, don't worry! You can always reach out to your alliance members and request a few minutes of help. By saving your Speedups and avoiding automatic speeding up of items, you can make the most out of them. The game might automatically use your Speedups on different items without your consent, so it's wise to be cautious.


Moreover, your monarch has the ability to wear a crown that speeds up various tasks by a certain percentage. These crowns are truly remarkable as they can provide you with a permanent 10% or 20% reduction in construction time, troop training, and research. And the best part is, acquiring these crowns can cost as little as 600-800 gems. So, be sure to take advantage of these incredible boosts!

In Evony: The King's Return, your construction efforts lay the groundwork for your empire's rise to greatness. By focusing on the right buildings, strategically placing them, and speeding up construction, you can establish a formidable force to dominate the game. Remember to adapt your strategies as you progress and always keep an eye on the evolving dynamics of the game. Now, it's time to gather your resources, construct your empire, and lead your kingdom to victory!
