Новый интерфейс
Миры Grepolis 2.0 могут похвастаться новым интерфейсом, призванным украсить ваш игровой процесс. Этот новый интерфейс обзавелся множеством новых деталей, а старый функционал был изменен и дополнен. Это делается с целью сделать управление игры проще, чем когда-либо прежде.
Одной из новых особенностей является карта, охватывающая весь дисплей, предоставляя игрокам широкий обзор их окружения. В дополнение к этому были добавлены заново отрисованные изображения островов. Также теперь город, с которым вы работаете, обозначается белым кругом - мелочь, а приятно.
Все нижеизложенные пункты отображены на изображении соответствующим номером.
Название города (Пункт 1)
Если вы дважды щелкнете на названии города у вас появиться возможность сменить название как и прежде. Однако при одном щелчке на названии появится список всех городов, которыми владеет игрок. При щелчке на каком либо городе из списка вы сразу переместитесь к локации выбранного города. Это нововведение делает управление больше чем одним городом гораздо проще!
Панель быстрого доступа (Пункт 2)
Панель быстрого доступа содержит множество функций, полезных для управления войсками и городов. Начинем с лева: значок с увеличительным стеклом и дом перенесет вас к обзору города. Две стрелки переключения между городами игрока. Если у вас активирована Премиум "Администратор" вы сможете использовать "Блокнот" и "Обзор". Блокнот можно использовать для собственных заметок по игре, его видите только вы. Функция "Обзор" предоставляет вам в распоряжение полезные таблицы, а также военные и экономические обзоры. Значки, отражающие Строительство войск, Активность войск и Торговую деятельность, вынесены в отдельную секцию панели.
Ресурсы (Пункт 3)
Ресурсы текущего города можно увидеть в правом верхнем углу экрана: дерево, камень и серебро. С-образный индикатор показывает загруженность склада данным ресурсом. Население представлено таким же образом - с использованием С-образного индикатора.
Бог (Пункт 4)
В самом верхнем правом углу показывается какому богу на данный момент город поклоняется. Если вы щелкните на молнии под этим изображением вам откроется список Заклинаний, которые могут использованы на выбранный город.
Меню доступных юнитов (Пункт 5)
Доступные вам юниты, находящиеся в выбраном городе можно увидет под изображение Бога в выпадающем меню. Если вы щелкните на войске и наведете курсор на цель, то увидите сколько времени у выбранного отряда займет переход к цели. Используйте это, что бы повысить кординацию и эффективность ваших боевых действий.

Like version 1, most islands are inhabited with farming villages. These can be attacked to gain resources or traded with. Villages that belong to you are marked with a green flag whilst villages that do not belong to you are marked with a red flag.
Please see the new farming system.
World Wonders (Number 13)
After a few months World Wonders will be available. Special sites will be visible on all islands that can potentially build a World Wonder. If you click on a construction site, it will give you additional information about the structure.
The Phoenician Trader
The Phoenician Trader is a new option for trading different resources. Every 24 hours, the Phoenician Trader docks at one of your harbors (a harbor is mandatory). He will offer you are variety of options, including at 1:1.5 trade for another resource, as well as troops in exchange for silver. The types of units are random, with a very slim chance of mythical units being available.
World Wonders
The world wonders offer a new team play aspect to Grepolis, which can be built on islands the alliance completely controls (no other/unowned towns may be on such islands). Once "The Age of World Wonders" requirements have been fulfilled, construction may commence. World wonders may be built using resources and favour.
The Age of World Wonders
The Age of World Wonders begins when the following requirements have been fulfilled.
- The world has existed for more than 9 months
- The combined points of the top 50 alliances is at least 250 million
- After 9 months of a world being in existence, the required 250 million point score will be reduced by 13 million per month.
Winning Conditions
If an alliance can bring four of the seven world wonders under their control, they will win the world. A hero world is unlocked and is opened to the best players of the world. Heroworlds have settings and features exclusive to them.
New God: Hades
Hades will be the fifth god available to players, hosting 4 new spells and 2 unique mythical units.
Mythical Units
Hades' two mythical units are as follows:
Erinyes
Erinyes are the hideous spawn of Hades and Persephone. These creatures fight for the wrongdoings against the dead and seek revenge on the living. Their supernatural screams drive their opponents into madness
Cerberus
Cerberus is the hound of Hades, a 3 headed beast who will devour those who dare to sneak past him.
Divine Powers
Four spells are available to you if you choose to worship Hades: Return of the Dead: Some of your units that fell in battle are reanimated in their home city. Treasures of the Underworld: You receive 500 silver coins. Helmet of Invisibility: Your troops are invisible for the first 10 % of their journey. Plague: Reduces the base production of resources in an enemy city by 50% for 3 hours.
New Farming System
At the start of the game, you will be given 2 farming village to pillage on a regular basis. You no longer need troops to farm! These villages will be denoted by a green flag. Each farming village can be expanded and conquered to give you a bigger resource income.
Conquering a Farming Village
In order to farm, you must first “conquer” these villages. In order to gain control, you simply must kill all of the units defending the village. Furthermore, you must possess enough troops in your city to be able to conquer the village. A blue bar at the top (as seen in the visual below) indicates if you have enough units (based on farm space used) in your city or if you're short. As the number of farming villages you own increases, you will find increased resistance in subsequent villages to defeat. Once you kill all of the units, the village is yours to loot, demand resources, and trade with.
Resource Loads
If a farming village is under the players control, it will generate resource loads that can be sent to the player's city. It is possible to demand resource loads before they are finished, and upon completion they will be transferred. Resource loads can accumulate to a small degree, so casual players will not loose as many resources if they do not log in for a day or two.
Plundering Resources
Resources can also be plundered without the consent of the farming village. However this feature will decrease the farming village's mood. If the mood sinks too low, the farmers can even revolt and kill all stationed troops in your village, which will also cause a temporary reduction of the resource loads.
Demand Troops
You can also demand troops from your farming villages. A level 3 Barracks is a requirement for this action. However be careful, this action causes the farming village's mood to decrease.
Premium Features
2.0 holds host to a number of new premium features to enhance your Grepolis gameplay.
Attack Planner
The attack planner is a new tool received with the captain premium ability. Players can create and share a number of plans with friends and their alliances. This attack plan can have multiple targets; with the attack arrival time being controlled by you!
Overview Changes
A new administrator overview provides you with everything that is happening in your city with a single glance. Troops, researches and more can be seen in a single glance.
In addition to this, the recruitment and troops overviews are now separated, making administrator more useful than ever before.
Other Advantages
- With the use of gold, you can summon the Phoenician trader immediately.
- Similar to the halving of building times, you can now half research times.
- Some divine powers, such as Happiness may be enabled with a small amount of gold. This may be done only a limited amount of times.
Settings
In addition to all the features above, there are a variety of new setting available in Grepolis 2.0.
Window Management
The player can control how many windows can be displayed simultaneously. If you set the maximal window number to "1", the currently open window will close automatically when you open a new window(similar to the old version).
Local Data Storage
To load the game faster, some of the game data will be stored on your hard-drive. If you would like to deactivate this feature or delete the local cache, you can do this from the settings menu now.
Building in the City Overview
2.0 enables the player to queue building orders from the city overview. If you click on the small hammer next to the building, the level will be upgraded. This function can be disabled in the Settings menu. The building-queue under the city overview can also be disable there.
Other Improvements
Academy Research Changes
