The Battle of Polytopia has just spiced up its gameplay with the introduction of Weekly Challenges, offering a fresh competitive twist to the beloved 4X strategy game. Dive in to discover how this new feature will enhance your gaming experience.
It Was Random Before
If you're familiar with The Battle of Polytopia, you know the thrill of unpredictability that comes with each game—varied enemies, resources, and maps keep you on your toes. But with the latest free update, the competition is becoming more structured and exciting.
Every week, players are presented with the same map, tribe, and gameplay conditions, leveling the playing field. The challenge? Achieve the highest possible score within 20 turns. You can attempt this once per day, allowing for a maximum of seven tries each week.
This new feature also lets you experiment with tribes you might not yet own. With 16 tribes in total—four included in the base game and twelve available for purchase ranging from $1 to $4—Weekly Challenges allow everyone to compete with the same tribe, regardless of ownership.
Will Weekly Challenges Make The Battle of Polytopia More Exciting?
Absolutely, and here's why. The Weekly Challenges introduce a League system, starting everyone in the Entry League. Your performance each week determines whether you move up or down. The top third of players advance to the next league, the bottom third drop down, and the middle third stay the same.
As you progress through the leagues, the difficulty ramps up. Starting with Easy AI in the Entry League, you'll face off against Crazy difficulty bots by the time you reach the Gold League. If you miss a week, you won't be demoted, but your ranking will adjust based on other players' performances.
