'Forge Of Empires' Now Accepting Closed Beta Sign-ups

by Rainier on March 22, 2012 @ 8:05 a.m. PDT

Forge of Empires is a browser-based strategy game that lets you create your own city and accompany it from the beginning of the Stone Age onward throughout the centuries.

In Forge Of Empires players will have the chance to build and lead an entire empire through the centuries and write the history of mankind. Build structures typical of the epoch. Enlarge your sphere of influence through military campaigns and skillful dealings. With a powerful army and the right tactics, you will subjugate your enemies and forge a vast empire.

The Flash-Based 3D Graphics of the game are based on a naturalistic style, and present players an accurate and believable world by focusing on details and remaining close to reality.

Forge of Empires will begin a closed beta on March 29. During this phase, a few thousand players will get the chance to try the game hands-on for the first time. Prior to the beta, 500 testers were providing InnoGames with valuable feedback in an "Exclusive Preview". The closed beta can be accessed by pre-registering on or visiting the InnoGames-Facebook page, where keys will be given out daily.

With the start of the closed beta, Forge of Empires will also implement some fresh components. On top of improved battle mechanics and a messaging system, the new trading feature will allow players to finally exchange rare goods, like honey or gold - with NPCs as well as with other players. This allows one to focus on a limited number of various goods buildings. Additionally, InnoGames will add more features over the course of the closed beta, some of them in direct response to player feedback during the Exclusive Preview.

Key Features:

  • In Forge of Empires you control the fate of your city throughout different historical periods. You can expect exciting tasks and demanding challenges.
  • Eras: Beginning in the Stone Age, you research building types and technologies in order to advance to the next era with your settlement.
  • Single-player campaign: In a full-blown campaign you can build a thriving city and become the ruler of an entire continent.
  • Research: Explore the greatest achievements of mankind and gain access to more advanced units, rare goods and spectacular buildings.
  • City planning: Lead your city through various epochs in the history of mankind. Create unique buildings that make your city look impressive.
  • Battle: Fight exciting battles and win the day with the help of the specialized capabilities of your forces and the nature of the terrain.
  • PvP: Challenge friends and adversaries to a duel on the battlefield and use your tactical skills to teach them a lesson.

Players creating an account on the official website will have the chance to gain a slot in the “Exclusive Preview”; a limited access period which will begin before the closed beta.
