The Gameplay
Lords Online is a free-to-play strategic civilisation building game in which players take the role of the ruler of a city. The player makes important decisions considering the growth of the city, the loyalty of its civilians and the production of resources. These resources are needed to construct buildings, train troops and research important technology. Once a town has grown enough it can be transformed into the capital of the kingdom and the player can start founding new villages and developing everything that village needs to grow.

Training heroes and battle
An important in-depth function is the ability for the players to train heroes and increase their level and abilities. When combating other players or oasis', the hero will function as a general and command the other troops in battle. The player is given the possibility to manually control the combat in a turn-based fighting simulator.

Special items
Lords Online offers a unique in-game shop in which special items are sold that help the player speed up growth, train troops and all kinds of other benefits. The player can buy GO credits on the GamersOxygen site and use those credits to buy items in the Lords Online shop.
