Choose your Game
Besides the normal contender, we sometimes provide an easier save (the adventurer save) and an extra-hard save (the challenger).
Below are the details for the saves we are providing for this game. You can choose to play and submit any one of these:
Adventurer (the easy save)
The adventurer starting save has been changed to make your game a bit easier. However, if you submit an adventurer game, you won't eligible to win any of the medals or fastest finish awards when the results are published.
These are your adventurer bonuses:
You're still playing on deity level, but to even things up a bit with the AI, you start also knowing archery. Should help you quite a lot with early defence, giving you at least a sporting chance against the super-powerful deity AI as well as the barbarians who start spawning pretty quickly on this difficulty. So I'm hoping that, even if no-one playing contender is able to win, at least a few people playing adventurer might stand a chance. Just think, it could be your first ever deity victory! Oh sorry, I almost forgot - you also have an extra settler and a worker, both standing on the same tile as the original settler.Click on the image below to download the adventurer class start save file.
Contender (the standard save)
This is the save that most people play. If you want to enter the competition with a normal game, then download and play this one.
Contender bonuses:
- None.
