Once you will log into the game, on the upper part of the screen you have an interface. There you can find tabs like: Home, Press, Inventory, Market, War, Politics and Gold.
1. Home - This is your town. You can build and improve all basic actions in the game. If you are using mobile device like phone/tablet you have to install flash for it.
2. Press - Here
you can write articles about the game (such as this one). Every player has access to
it and can write tutorials about the game for gold. For every article written
in English you will get 0,1 gold and for every article in your native language
(English doesn't count) 0,025 gold. It's an interesting way of getting gold but
most tutorials have already been written so it might be hard to get some gold
from it. Even if you will earn some gold
it won't be enough to buy things that you need, but if you are a hard worker
which just doesn't have enough cash, you might try it in order to afford buying some resources.
3. Inventory - It gives us an opportunity to check how much resources we have and last 13 transactions that we've done lately. We can also check the number of our workers and army. When it comes to workers, each category (unskilled workers, hookers, doctors, teachers, bankers, priests, cooks, firemen, police men and casino workers) has its own classification: Free citizens, Training citizens, Employed citizens, Dead citizens, In a construction process and For sale. If you click on any of the fields your workers have, you can also check their “deadline”. In the army field you have the same options as with workers.
4. Market - Here you can make purchases and exchanges. You can always buy resources from other players/countries for gold (around 0,0003 gold for each), but in case you want to sell your resources, you first have to reach 100% of happiness. As I said before you can also do exchanges between your own resources. Also, in this section you can buy/sell workers and soldiers in order to get some gold. Prices are never the same so, in the beginning, it's better to buy workers than train them, in my opinion.
5. War - It's a field about attacks and wars that gives you an opportunity to check your last attacks and wars between countries. Here you can join an international war if you want to get some cash: like in real life, war is a business and nobody cares about people, money is the first thing about which you care. The more army you send, the more money you get if the country you help wins. In a third field of the war section you can buy a license to make your own special soldiers but it's very expensive and you shouldn't even think about it, at least not at the beginning. Last field in the war field is called Espionage. In this field you can check amount of spies in best towns and eventually info about towns in which we have our spies. Unfortunately, war field isn't 100% ready to use: they are still working on it to make it better because right now it has a lot of bugs.
6. Politics - This field is a place where you can find rating of
amount of citizens in your country, amount of resources in our country,
population, amount of towns, average lvl and how people were online today and
how many of them joined today. It this field we can drop our citizenship and
get back to our “motherland” (if we've changed it recently). In the second
field in politics we can vote on law (from 3rd lvl) and propose new law (from
10th lvl). In the third field you can find amount of resources in our country
and last transactions just like on inventory. Fourth and last field gives us a
chance of buying shares of our own country. 1000 shares will give us 1% from
resources (including gold) out of everything that the country gets. You can buy
and sell shares anytime you want but you have to be careful because their price
changes with every buy/sell. The more shares are bought, the higher the price;
it works the same way with sales – the more shares sold, the lower the price.
It’s pretty easy to lose gold by buying and selling shares.
7. Gold - The last tab of the main menu. In this field you can
find info about gold mined by players, costs of production, whole amount of the
gold in the game that is divided to people from time to time according to
shares that people have bought. We can also check gold (top 20 gold owners). And
the last very interesting thing: you can check last transactions from
buying/selling gold for euro.
