Is it free?
Yes. Nothing in the game is sold, and there's no real money anywhere in it.
How do I play?
Get the L.O.S launcher, sign in with your L.O.S account and pick L.O.S Empires & Allies in the games hub. Step by step: Getting Started.
Do I need Facebook?
No. You sign in with your L.O.S account.
Who made this?
Zynga made the original game. The server is the Raise the Empires preservation project's (GPL-3.0); L.O.S hosts it and fixes what breaks. See Credits.
Does my old empire still exist?
No, sorry. Zynga's saves are gone, so everyone starts a new empire.
Why can't I send gifts?
Gifting went through Facebook, and the game has no in-game inbox for it, so there's no way to send gifts yet.
A unit or building is missing from the shop
Its picture was never recovered, so we hid it rather than sell a blank card.
"The enemy has managed to sever our connection"
That means the game lost touch with the server. Reload and carry on: your progress up to that point is saved. If it keeps happening at the same step, tell us in Bug Reports what you were doing.
