Tip: study the new world map for locations (here), either if you want a spot where only the city hall can fit, or a location where your city can grow both with your citizens houses and addons. Several locations has been cleared up in order to facilitate more areas without obstacles.

To place the city hall, you must find a flat surface without obstacles atleast 200 tiles from another city or player city.

Once the city is placed, the mayor (founder) has 60 minutes to invite players and fill upp the treasury. An hour after initial placement, the city goes through it's first "City update", after this first update, these occur with a 7 day intervall from when the city was originally placed. When a city goes through an update, money is withdrawn from the treasury, but can also progress to a higher level. The level of the city is depending on how many citizens are in the city. The level of the city also determines: Title of the city, Size in tiles and what kinds of add-ons buildings can be placed inside the city.

Level: # of players: Title: Size (tiles):
1 1 Outpost 50x50
2 7 Village 76x76
