Retardo(1), or not Retardo(2)? This is the question, so let's find out.

EDIT: Nope, not yet.

Personally I hope we have some of the assholes and stalkers from other threads just call the police on our friend Michał Górka, or tell it to all of his classmates. The drama should be great fun.

Is Andhaira still among us? We should... release him.

Andhaira made a rather good interview recently. Definite :incline:

So, I went and asked Clever Bot for an answer on this game.

Me: Do you think that Golden Towns is a scam?
Cleverbot: *blushes* Yes!

Either Skynet wants to marry me or it actually runs Cleverbot.

Still sounds legit.

I already went to the cave and I won't go out until this thread will be forgotten.

I didn't expect so much hate towards my person from the Codex family. So, you forced me to stop posting on this forum.


Yours, a little depressed

So how does it make money for the game makers, cash shop? Advertising? Selling souls sucked out of players to the nether realms?
From the OP:

It’s not suggested by me but you can buy some to make your development a bit faster. Of course you can play this game without buying gold and enjoy it exactly the same. Anyway, it really takes a while to get a nice level and start to mine the gold so if you are not a patient guy buy some gold and invest it properly.

At the 5:02 mark in the video above, you can see that you can buy gold in order to trade for resources and upgrade your structures, hire workers, etc. Plus players can also buy energy for cash, too.

The catch is that players paid €4/gold unit from the company but sold it for €3/gold unit (the exchange rate was different back then).

You can write a review of the game of the game in English and earn 0.1 gold (€0.60 in today's exchange rate or) or 0.05 gold if the review is in another language.

Did I mention buildings and roads can degrade over time, so you have to sink in resources constantly to run them? And other players can raid your town?

Surprised that this thread is pretty tame compared to the 1000 A.D one.
