Game Introduction: Kingsage Webgame

Over the past few months, webgames had become popular. They don't demand a strong computer so everyone can play them. Beside flash games and social networks games, there are literally thousands of webgames. You can become anyone depending on the game, you can become an emperor, a warrior, worker, gladiator or even a hobo. This time I'll show you one of my favorite games: Kings Age.

Kings Age is powered by Gameforge, the famous German MMO game company. It's available in many languages, English, German, Spanish, Japanese,... and Vietnamese.
You are an emperor, you will run the kingdom by building houses, castles, barracks and then when you're strong enough, you will raid or conquer other kingdoms. However, it's not just that simple since you'll have to race with others or you'll be undone.

It's a real-time strategy game, so you have the resources, then you choose something to construct, and then you can log out and do something else while waiting the buildings to be constructed.
There are 3 main resources in this game: Stone, Wood and Ore
Here are some constructions and their effects when you upgrade them:
_ Castle: your main building, the higher level it is, the faster you construct other buildings.
_ Quarry, Sawmill, Ore mine: these are places to harvest resources, so you will need to upgrade them to gain resources faster (tip: Buildings need a lot of stone, so build Quarry first, and then Ore mine, since it takes lots of Ore to produce an army)
_ Warehouse: this is where you keep your resources
_ Hideout: your resources are hidden here so they can't be raided
_ Miller: You will need lots of worker and soldiers, you will have to upgrade Miller to increase the kingdom's population
_ Barracks: wars start here!
_ Town wall: increase town's defense

And I'll leave the rest for you to explore for yourself

You can also create or join in an alliance, which will increase your chance to survive and win the war.
That is pretty much the basic things you should know, there is an in-game help section in case you need more help.

Happy conquering... or be conquered.
