Polytopia's Weekly Challenges: New Game Mode Launched

The Battle of Polytopia has just upped the ante with its exciting new Weekly Challenges! This fresh competitive mode injects a thrilling new dimension into this beloved 4X strategy game, offering a structured way to test your skills.

From Randomness to Rigorous Competition

Polytopia's charm lies in its unpredictable nature—ever-changing enemies, resources, and maps. But this free update introduces a structured competitive element. Each week, every player receives the same map, tribe, and identical starting conditions. The goal? Maximize your score within 20 turns. You get one attempt per day, for a maximum of seven attempts per week.

This new feature offers a unique opportunity to experience tribes you might not own. With 16 tribes in total (four base game tribes and twelve purchasable tribes), Weekly Challenges level the playing field. Everyone competes using the same tribe, regardless of ownership.

Will Weekly Challenges Elevate Polytopia's Excitement?

Absolutely! This new mode also introduces a compelling League system. You start in the Entry League and climb (or descend) based on your weekly performance. The top third advances, the bottom third drops, and the middle remains unchanged. The difficulty scales with your league progression, starting with Easy AI in Entry League and escalating to Crazy difficulty AI in Gold League. Missing a week won't demote you, but your ranking will adjust based on other players' progress.
