Frequently asked questions about free-to-play
What exactly is free?
Everything: registration, access to all three universes, mobile apps, core gameplay, guides, forum, alliance communication. No trial period and no mandatory subscription.
Is there pay-to-win?
No. This is a central principle. Premium account gives convenience (long build queues, extra filters, advanced stats) but no combat advantage. All strategies and victories are achievable without premium.
What does premium give?
Build queues hours ahead, advanced espionage, advanced galaxy filters, design themes. Subscription from ~$5/month, applies to all universes. No combat bonuses.
Can I play at top level without donating?
Yes. Most top alliances are a mix: some with premium, some without. Victory is decided by strategy, coordination and time — not money.
Are there ads inside the game?
No in-game ads. No banners, no "watch 30 sec video — get resources". We earn only from premium subscriptions.
Is the game monetized any other way?
Cosmetics (design themes, alliance icons), small quality-of-life upgrades in premium, and tournament sponsor bonuses. No lootboxes, no energy timers for paid rerolls.
