▶FEATURES◀
15 Unique Civilizations
Choose one of 15 historical civilizations and guide your empire from a lone clan into a great, unstoppable force! Each civilization has its own architecture, unique units, and special advantages — how you utilize them is up to you!
Real-Time Battles
Battles happen in real time on the map. Anyone can join or leave a battle at any time, allowing true RTS gameplay. See an ally being attacked right in your backyard? Send some troops to help your buddy out, or launch a surprise counterattack on the attacker’s city.
Seamless World Map
All in-game action takes place on a single, enormous map inhabited by players and NPCs. No isolated bases or separate battle screens. Never before seen on mobile “infinite zoom” allows you to transition freely between the world view and individual cities or barbarian outposts. Map features include natural obstructions such as rivers and mountain ranges and strategic passes that must be captured to gain entrance to neighboring regions.
Exploration & Investigation
Your world is covered in thick fog. Dispatch scouts to explore this mysterious land and uncover the hidden treasure within.
Investigate lost temples, barbarian fortresses, mysterious caves, and tribal villages, gather intelligence on your enemies, and prepare yourself for the ultimate battle!
Unrestricted Troop Movements
New orders can be issued to troops at any time, offering limitless strategic possibilities. Launch an attack on an enemy city, then circle back and meet up with your alliance army to capture a pass.
Dispatch troops to collect lumber from a nearby forest and have them pick off a few barbarian clans along the way. Forces can also be split up between multiple commanders so that you can engage in multiple actions simultaneously.
Alliance System
Full alliance features allow players to help one another: live chat with built-in translation, officer roles, map indicators to coordinate strategies, and more! Alliances can expand their territory to gain resources, capture mountain passes and barbarian outposts to strengthen their position, and work together to unlock group achievements.
Conquer the Kingdom
Fight alongside your alliance to take control of this vast kingdom. Clash with other players and use superior tactics to emerge victorious in a MMO strategy battle royale. Rise to the top and you and your civilization will be written down in your kingdom’s history!
RPG Commanders
Call upon dozens of historical figures who will serve as your trustworthy commanders, from Julius Caesar and Sun Tzu to Joan of Arc and Kusunoki Masashige. Level up your commanders by defeating barbarians and sending them into battles, then upgrade their abilities using an RPG style talent tree and skill system.

more Hello, Rise of kingdom is really one of the best game I ever played. Here u may found so many friends and partners as it is connecting all the world together. However what will u found is that it is really expensive game. Daily offers is grade but to play against wholes, who spend a lot in this game is not possible, u have to played 3 times KVK 2, to get the enough power to do anything there. And the legendary commanders is too difficult to make them expert for F2P gamers. My advice is ether to reduce prices, or make the limit of power for kvk. (But it is just my opinion). What is really important is to add button SKIP of learning the navigation of game when u creating the account. This is very important because u are spending 5 mins just to finish it, when u already know it as u are just creating the second account for ur self. Thank u for your response:)

First of, the game is amazing in all aspects. One of the best games I’ve played so far. Unfortunately, there is this current situation that left me frustrated, angry and upset. I purchased an in-app bundle called “Writer of History” which is priced as $5 in conversion. When I got my online receipt, it appeared that $20 was taken from my account. I contacted their customer service thru chat but the one who handled my report keeps on insisting that the bundle I purchase costs $20. What frustrates me is that the in game ad itself is saying $5. I even attached screenshots but our conversation was not going anywhere. I know there might be a glitch in the system somewhere when I purchased it and I may be one of the unfortunate few, but even though I should be treated fairly and I deserve to get my money’s worth. Whoever is reading this from the developer side, I would like to kindly appeal my case, otherwise all your bundles will now look scary as they might be click-baits.
Developer Response Could you please provide us some more information? So we can help to fix this problem. Please contact us via in-game support,our Email (service@lilithgames.com) or our Facebook message (https://www.facebook.com/riseofcivilizations/). It will be very appreciated.

1. The Supreme Strife Tournament Is About to Begin!
1) Registration Rules: If your City Hall is level 25 and you are in the Season of Conquest, you can form or join a Pact at any time between the start of the event and the end of the registration period.
2) Qualifying for the Strife: At the end of the registration period, the top 64 Pacts by total power in your server region (International or China) will qualify for the Supreme Strife.
3) Format:
- The Supreme Strife consists of multiple rounds of matches, with 8 Pacts in each match. At the end of each match, the 4 Pacts with the most points will advance to the next round.
- The tournament lasts for a month, with a round of matches held every Saturday. Pact leaders can vote on the specific start time for their match. Each match lasts for 4 hours.
4) Forming Pacts:
- After the Supreme Strife event begins, you can create or join a temporary alliance called a "Pact". You do not need to leave your regular alliance to join a Pact, and Pact member limits will increase as the event progresses.
- You cannot quit your Pact if it is advancing to the next round. If your Pact gets eliminated, you can quit the Pact and join an advancing one.
5) Gameplay:
- In each match, Pacts will be ranked by their points. They can earn points by occupying Supreme Sites located across the battlefield.
- All governors will receive buffs equal to max-level Crystal techs and Past Glory bonuses. Lost Kingdom buffs will not take effect in the Supreme Strife battlefield.
- To claim territory, Pacts can build Pact Flags on the Supreme Strife battlefield. Pact Flags have a 350% bonus to construction speed and have a fixed Durability of 1000. The build speed of Pact Flags is not affected by the number of governors helping to build it.
- A certain proportion of severely wounded units in field and stronghold battles will instead be killed. Severely wounded units will be instantly healed at no cost when they return to their owner's city.
- At the end of each Supreme Strife match, the majority of units killed during the match will be resurrected for free.
- In the Supreme Strife, commanders can equip skills from auxiliary commanders at no cost, allowing for all-new strategic combinations.
6) Rewards:
- After the end of each Supreme Strife match, all participating governors will receive generous rewards. Governors who advance to the next round will receive bonus rewards.
- Governors will receive additional rewards based on their Pact's final ranking. The reward pool includes permanent city themes, exclusive titles, marching effects, teleport effects, avatar frames, name plaques, and other in-game item rewards.
- By killing enemy units and training units in the Supreme Strife, governors can level up their Supreme Pass battle pass and unlock new rewards. Purchase the Supreme Soldier bundle to access extra rewards and added benefits.
7) Pioneer Experience:
Before the Supreme Strife begins, we'll be holding a Pioneer Experience version of the tournament, designed to familiarize potential contenders with the rules and special mechanics. We hope that this preview will make the actual Supreme Strife a more exciting experience for participants and spectators alike.
The Supreme Strife Pioneer Experience has mostly the same rules as the regular Supreme Strife, but with a few differences in format, rewards, and the Hall of Legends. More details will be provided later via in-game mail.
2. Our Summer Event Series Is Coming!
