Dive into our beginner's guide to Evony: The King's Return.
Evony: The King's Return is one of the best mobile strategy games, and with my extensive guides, you should be able to to take your game to the next level, with this beginner's guide to the game.
If you love mobile war strategy games, then here at The Empire Build Academy (TEBA), I've got you covered. From attack to defence, to the best equipment, and everything in between, I hope to provide you with everything you need to ace the strategy mobile games genre!

Introduction
Welcome to Evony: The King’s Return.
If you have just downloaded the game and feel completely lost, do not worry. Evony throws a lot at you very quickly: buildings, troops, generals, resources, monsters, alliances, events, research, speedups, gems, and a world map full of other players.
At first, it can feel like there are too many buttons and not enough explanation.
This guide is written for a complete beginner. It will walk you through the basic systems, explain what matters early on, and give you a simple plan for your first 14 days.
You do not need to understand everything immediately. In fact, one of the best things a beginner can do is avoid rushing, avoid wasting rare items, and focus on steady progress.
By the end of this guide, you should understand:
What Evony is
How your city works
What resources are used for
Why your Keep matters
Why alliances are so important
How troops, generals, monsters, rallies, and events work
What to do each day during your first two weeks
What beginner mistakes to avoid
This guide is not aimed at advanced players. We will keep things simple, practical, and beginner-friendly.

1. What Is Evony: The King’s Return?
Evony: The King’s Return is a mobile strategy game where you build a city, gather resources, train troops, recruit generals, join an alliance, fight monsters, complete events, and eventually compete against other players.
At its core, Evony is about growing your empire.
You start with a small city and slowly improve it by upgrading buildings, researching technologies, training troops, collecting resources, and working with other players.
The game has several main parts:
City Building
Your city is your base. This is where you upgrade buildings, train troops, research technology, manage resources, and grow your power.
World Map
Outside your city is the world map. This is where you will find resource tiles, monsters, bosses, other players, alliance buildings, and event targets.
Troops and Combat
You train troops to fight monsters, join rallies, gather resources, and eventually fight other players.
Generals
Generals are leaders who command your troops, help with gathering, improve construction, boost research, fight monsters, or lead armies.
Alliances
An alliance is a group of players working together. Joining a good alliance early is one of the most important things you can do.
Events
Events give rewards for completing certain tasks. Beginners should pay attention to events because they can give speedups, resources, gems, general fragments, and other useful items.
2. What Is the Main Goal of Evony?
The main goal of Evony is to grow a strong city and account over time.
That does not mean you should only chase a big power number. A beginner mistake is thinking that more troops or higher power automatically means you are playing well.
A strong Evony account has:
A good Keep level
Strong research
Useful generals
Smart resource management
Active alliance support
Enough troops for your stage of the game
Good daily habits
Protected resources
A clear plan
Your early goal is simple:
Build a strong foundation before trying to become a fighter.
During your first two weeks, your main focus should be:
Upgrade your Keep
Unlock important buildings
Join an active alliance
Learn how rallies and monsters work
Complete daily tasks
Save valuable items
Avoid wasting resources
Keep your city protected
Think of your first 14 days as the tutorial stage, even after the game’s official tutorial ends.

3. Understanding Your City
Your city is your main base. Almost everything starts here.
When you first enter your city, you will see many buildings. Some are already built, and others unlock as you progress.
You do not need to understand every building at once. Start with the most important ones.
The Keep
The Keep is the most important building in your city.
Your Keep level controls a lot of your progress. Higher Keep levels unlock more buildings, higher building levels, stronger troops, more features, and better growth options.
When players say “I’m K10” or “I’m K25”, they mean their Keep level.
For example:
• K5 means Keep Level 5
• K10 means Keep Level 10
• K20 means Keep Level 20
As a beginner, your Keep should usually be your main upgrade priority.
However, do not blindly rush it while ignoring everything else. You still need research, resources, and key support buildings.
Academy
The Academy is where you do research.
Research gives permanent improvements to your account. This can include faster building, faster research, stronger troops, better gathering, more resources, better healing, and many other bonuses.
Research is extremely important because it improves your whole account over time.
Barracks, Stables, Archer Camp, and Workshop
These are your troop training buildings.
They train different troop types:
• Barracks trains ground troops
• Stables trains mounted troops
• Archer Camp trains ranged troops
• Workshop trains siege machines
You do not need huge numbers of troops early on. Train enough to complete tasks, gather resources, and join rallies, but do not overtrain low-level troops just to increase power.
Hospital
The Hospital heals wounded troops.
When troops are wounded in certain battles, they go to the Hospital instead of dying. If your Hospital capacity is too low, some troops may die instead of being wounded.
Early on, keep your Hospital upgraded, but do not panic about advanced battle mechanics yet.
Warehouse
The Warehouse protects some of your resources from being stolen if you are attacked.
It will not protect everything, but it helps.
The best protection is still to avoid opening too many resources and to keep your truce agreement active when needed.
Rally Spot
The Rally Spot affects how many troops you can send in a march.
A march is one army leaving your city to gather, fight, or join a rally.
As you grow, Rally Spot becomes more important because it helps increase your march size.
Embassy
The Embassy is connected to alliance help.
When you are in an alliance, other players can help reduce your building and research timers. Upgrading your Embassy improves how much help you can receive.
This is one reason alliances are so powerful.
Wall
Your Wall is part of your city defence and is often required for Keep upgrades.
Beginners should upgrade it when needed, but do not worry too much about advanced defence early on.
Resource Buildings
Inside your city, you can build farms, sawmills, quarries, and mines.
These produce resources over time:
• Farms produce food
• Sawmills produce lumber
• Quarries produce stone
• Mines produce ore
These are useful, but city production alone will not be enough forever. You will also gather resources from the world map, join rallies, complete events, and use resource boxes.

4. What Are Resources and Why Do They Matter?
Resources are the materials you use to grow your city.
The main resources are:
Food
Food is used for building, research, troop training, and other upgrades.
Food can also be consumed by troop upkeep once you have troops. This means open food in your city can disappear over time if your troops are eating it.
Lumber
Lumber is used heavily for buildings, research, and troop training.
Stone
Stone becomes more important as your buildings get higher.
Ore
Ore is used for buildings, research, and troop training, especially as you progress.
Gold
Gold is used heavily for research, generals, and other systems.
Gold becomes very important, so do not waste it casually.
Open Resources vs Resource Boxes
This is very important.
There are two ways resources exist:
Open Resources
These are resources shown at the top of your city screen. They are already opened and sitting in your city.
Open resources can be used immediately, but they are also more vulnerable.
Resource Boxes
These are resource items stored in your inventory.
For example, you might have a box that gives 100,000 lumber or 500,000 food.
Resource boxes are safer because they are not sitting openly in your city.
Beginner rule: Do not open resource boxes until you are ready to spend them.
Your inventory is like your bank.
If you open everything too early, you may lose resources through attacks or food upkeep.
5. How Construction and Upgrades Work
Construction is how you improve your city.
Every building upgrade takes:
• Resources
• Time
• Sometimes another building requirement
For example, upgrading your Keep may require your Wall to be a certain level. Upgrading another building may require your Keep to be higher first.
As your city grows, upgrades take longer and cost more resources.
How to Upgrade Smartly
When you are new, you should focus on buildings that help your overall growth.
Good early priorities include:
• Keep
• Academy
• Rally Spot
• Embassy
• Warehouse
• Hospital
• Troop buildings
• Resource buildings when needed
• Wall when required
Do not randomly upgrade everything equally.
Your main goal is to unlock progress and avoid getting stuck.
Use Alliance Help
When you start a building upgrade, your alliance members can help reduce the timer.
Always press the help button when available, and make sure you are in an active alliance so you receive help quickly.
Use Speedups Carefully
Speedups reduce waiting time.
For example:
• A 5-minute speedup removes 5 minutes from a timer
• A 1-hour speedup removes 1 hour from a timer
Do not waste all your speedups on tiny upgrades unless it helps you complete an event or reach an important milestone.
Early on, some speedups are fine to use because fast growth matters. But as you progress, start saving them for important upgrades and events.

6. How Research Works
Research is done in the Academy.
Research gives permanent bonuses, which means the benefits stay with your account.
This is one of the most important systems in the game.
A player with good research can be much stronger than a player with higher power but weak research.
Beginner Research Priorities
As a beginner, focus on research that helps you grow faster and use resources better.
Good early research areas include:
Construction Speed
This helps buildings upgrade faster.
Research Speed
This helps future research complete faster.
Gathering Speed
This helps your troops collect resources faster from the world map.
Resource Production
This helps your city produce more food, lumber, stone, and ore.
March Speed
This helps your armies move faster on the map.
Monster Hunting Basics
Some military research helps you fight monsters better.
Troop Load
Troop load affects how many resources your troops can carry when gathering.
Do Not Ignore Research
A common beginner mistake is upgrading buildings but forgetting research.
Try to always have research running if possible.
If your Academy is sitting idle, you are missing permanent growth.

7. How Troops Work
Troops are your army.
You use troops to:
Fight monsters
Join rallies
Gather resources
Attack enemies later
Defend your city later
There are four main troop types.
Ground Troops
Ground troops are infantry-style units.
They are usually strong against ranged troops later in the game, but you do not need to worry deeply about counters yet.
They are trained in the Barracks.
Mounted Troops
Mounted troops are cavalry-style units.
Mounted troops are very useful for monster hunting, especially in the early and mid game.
They are trained in the Stables.
For beginners, mounted troops are often the most useful troop type for joining or attacking monsters.
Ranged Troops
Ranged troops are archers.
They become very important later, especially in player-versus-player combat, but beginners do not need to rush advanced ranged setups.
They are trained in the Archer Camp.
Siege Machines
Siege machines are heavy units.
They are trained in the Workshop.
They are slower and more specialised. Beginners should not overtrain siege early.
Do Not Overtrain Early Troops
It can be tempting to train loads of troops because your power goes up.
But early troops can become a burden.
Too many low-level troops can:
Eat food
Increase healing costs
Give enemies more points if you are attacked
Make you feel stronger than you really are
Drain resources you need for buildings and research
Train troops, but do not spam troops just to look powerful.
Early growth is more important than fake power.
8. How Generals Work
Generals are leaders who help your city and armies.
You can assign generals to different jobs.
A general can help with:
Attacking monsters
Leading troops
Gathering resources
Defending your city
Increasing construction speed
Increasing research speed
Improving resource production
Boosting troop stats
Generals are one of the most important parts of Evony, but they can also be confusing.
Do Not Invest Heavily in Random Generals
This is a massive beginner mistake.
You will get some generals early. Some may look cool, but that does not mean they are worth long-term investment.
Be careful with:
Gems
Skill books
Runestones
Refining stones
General fragments
Gold
Do not spend rare items heavily on a general unless you know they are useful long term.
Early on, use what you have, but do not over-invest.

Basic Types of Generals
Monster Generals
Used to fight monsters and bosses.
Gathering Generals
Used to gather resources faster.
Duty Generals
Assigned to buildings for bonuses.
Development Generals
Help with growth tasks like construction, research, or resource production.
PvP Generals
Used for player combat later.
As a beginner, focus mostly on monster, gathering, and development value.
9. Monarch Level, Keep Level, and Power
These three things are easy to confuse.
Monarch Level
Your Monarch Level is your account level.
You increase it by gaining Monarch EXP.
Monarch level unlocks features and allows you to improve monarch gear and talents.
Keep Level
Your Keep Level is the level of your main building.
Keep level is one of the biggest progression markers in the game.
When players talk about K10, K20, K30, and so on, they are talking about Keep level.
Power
Power is a number that represents your account strength.
Power comes from:
Buildings
Troops
Research
Generals
Gear
Monarch level
Other systems
But power can be misleading.
A player can have high power from lots of weak troops but still be badly built.
As a beginner, do not chase power for the sake of power.
Focus on useful growth.

10. Why Joining an Alliance Early Is Important
Joining an alliance is one of the best things you can do as a beginner.
An alliance is a group of players who help each other.
A good alliance gives you:
Building and research help
Boss rallies
Monster rewards
Advice from experienced players
Protection and support
Alliance gifts
Event participation
A better sense of direction
Evony is much harder if you try to play alone.
What Makes a Good Beginner Alliance?
Look for an alliance that:
Has active players
Runs boss rallies often
Answers beginner questions
Helps with timers
Has clear rules
Is not completely inactive
Participates in events
Do not stay in a dead alliance just because it was the first one you joined.
A good alliance can massively speed up your growth.
11. Rallies, Monsters, and Bosses
The world map has monsters and bosses you can attack.
Normal Monsters
Normal monsters are usually attacked solo.
You send one march to fight them.
They give rewards such as resources, speedups, gold, materials, and items.
Boss Monsters
Boss monsters are stronger monsters.
Many boss monsters are best attacked through rallies.
What Is a Rally?
A rally is a group attack.
One alliance member starts the rally against a boss. Other alliance members join by sending troops. When the rally timer ends, everyone’s troops march together and attack the boss.
As a beginner, rallies are very important because they let you earn rewards from bosses you could never defeat alone.
How Beginners Should Join Rallies
When joining boss rallies:
Join rallies started by stronger alliance members
Send a small number of troops if your alliance allows it
Follow your alliance rules
Do not start rallies on bosses you cannot beat
Use rallies to collect rewards and grow
Some alliances have rally rules, such as sending only one troop to certain rallies. Always check alliance chat or ask.

12. How Events Work
Events are temporary activities that give extra rewards.
They may ask you to:
Use speedups
Spend resources
Train troops
Gather resources
Kill monsters
Complete daily tasks
Participate in alliance activities
Log in each day
Events are important because they give rewards for things you may already be doing.
Beginner-Friendly Events to Watch
As a beginner, pay attention to events that reward:
Daily activity
Monster killing
Gathering
Resource spending
Speedup use
Login rewards
Alliance participation
You do not need to win events. Just collect what you can.
Do Not Spend Randomly Outside Events
A simple beginner rule:
If you are going to spend a lot of speedups, gems, or resources, check the event page first.
Sometimes using items during an event gives you extra rewards.
This does not mean you should stop all progress, but it does mean you should avoid impulsive spending.
13. Daily Tasks and Activities
Evony rewards consistency.
A beginner who logs in daily and follows a simple routine will grow much faster than someone who randomly clicks things.
Daily activities include:
Collecting resources
Starting or finishing building upgrades
Starting research
Training some troops
Joining rallies
Killing monsters
Gathering resources
Completing daily activity tasks
Claiming event rewards
Helping alliance members
Checking your bubble
Using stamina wisely
You do not need to play all day. But you should try to keep your builders, research, and marches busy.
14. Using Stamina, Speedups, Gems, and Items Wisely
These items matter a lot.
Stamina
Stamina is used to attack monsters and bosses.
Do not waste stamina on targets that give poor rewards.
As a beginner, use stamina mostly for:
Monster hunting
Joining boss rallies
Event tasks
Alliance activity
If your alliance runs good rallies, your stamina can turn into lots of useful rewards.
Speedups
Speedups reduce waiting times.
Use speedups for:
Important Keep upgrades
Important Academy upgrades
Event rewards
Key research
Unlocking major progress
Avoid wasting large speedups on tiny timers unless there is a good reason.
Gems
Gems are premium currency.
You will get some for free through quests, events, activities, and rewards.
Use gems carefully.
Good beginner gem uses may include:
Important upgrades when needed
Event-related spending
Certain useful items
Situational needs that support growth
Avoid wasting gems on random refreshes, unnecessary purchases, or impatience.
Resource Boxes
Do not open them until needed.
This is one of the most important beginner habits.
Skill Books, Runestones, and Refining Stones
These become very valuable later.
Do not waste them early on random generals or weak gear.
Save rare items until you understand what you are building.

The Biggest Beginner Mistakes to Avoid
This section is very important.
Avoiding mistakes is often more valuable than knowing advanced tricks.
Mistake 1: Opening All Resource Boxes Too Early
Your inventory is safer than your open city resources.
Do not open resource boxes until you are ready to spend them.
If you open everything, you risk losing resources through attacks or food upkeep.
Mistake 2: Training Too Many Low-Level Troops
Troops increase power, but early troops are not always useful.
Too many weak troops can drain food and create healing problems.
Focus on buildings, research, and account growth first.
Mistake 3: Ignoring Your Alliance
Evony is not a solo game.
If you are not in an active alliance, you are missing help, rallies, rewards, and advice.
Join an active alliance as early as possible.
Mistake 4: Wasting Gems
Gems feel plentiful at first, but they become very valuable.
Do not spend them just because a button is available.
Ask yourself: “Does this help my long-term growth?”
Mistake 5: Investing in the Wrong Generals
Do not heavily upgrade every general you get.
Some early generals are temporary.
Save rare materials for generals that are useful long term.
Mistake 6: Letting Builders and Research Sit Idle
Idle builders and idle research slow your growth.
Try to always have something upgrading and something researching.
Mistake 7: Forgetting to Gather
When you log off, send troops to gather resources.
Do not leave marches sitting idle for hours.
Mistake 8: Not Checking Events Before Spending
Before using lots of speedups, gems, or resources, check events.
You may be able to get extra rewards for doing the same activity at the right time.
Mistake 9: Thinking Power Means Strength
Power is not everything.
Research, generals, gear, troop quality, and account planning matter more than just a big number.
Mistake 10: Not Protecting Your City
If your city is unprotected, other players may attack you.
Learn how truce agreements work and follow your server or alliance rules.
16. What Free-to-Play Players Should Prioritise
If you do not plan to spend money, you can still enjoy Evony, but you need to be smart.
Free-to-play players should focus on efficiency.
Priority 1: Join a Strong Alliance
This is the biggest free-to-play advantage.
A good alliance gives you rewards that would be very hard to earn alone.
Priority 2: Save Rare Items
Do not waste gems, runestones, refining stones, skill books, or speedups.
You cannot replace them as quickly as spenders can.
Priority 3: Focus on Growth First
Do not rush PvP.
Build your city, research, generals, and resource habits first.
Priority 4: Use Events
Events help free-to-play players gain extra value.
Time your big upgrades and spending when events reward them.
Priority 5: Gather Resources
Gathering is boring but powerful.
Send marches out whenever you are offline.
Priority 6: Be Patient
Evony rewards planning.
You do not need to compete with heavy spenders. Your goal is to build steadily and avoid waste.
