The code is quite a mess tho and I will need to redo a lot of it for that to happen. When I do tho, the result will be published on my itch.io page :)\n\n@impbox - my biggest failure with this game was the lack of time to do a proper introduction. Some of the features are supposed to be \"secret\" and discovered under play, but it is extremely difficult to get it started to begin with. Mana is generated at a rate of 2 per population, which means you have to level the city up past 2 before you run out of mana. You need to be conservative early on and only build what you need, and expand using grassland tiles to pass the turns. Once you get a good amount of mana income from leveling up your city, you can focus on maximising your income.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"sachos345","author_uid":"1014950","time":"2017-05-03T14:44:16Z","epoch":1493822656,"modified":1493822656,"text":"Im sorry but cant understand how this game works =S.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Somnium","author_uid":"1001576","time":"2017-05-03T15:19:15Z","epoch":1493824755,"modified":1493824755,"text":"An interesting puzzle game!\n\nI liked how you literally start with a small world, and then expand it. A nice take on the theme! The graphics are quite nice, and it is easy to identify the various tile types. I did miss some \"tool-tips\" on the exact effect of each tile type.\n\nAs you stated, it is very easy to overextend yourself in the beginning, but once you get a good mana income, it is quite fun to hunt for the special tile types. The fact that you get to play after the 100 turns was also a nice touch (although the score keeps accumulating).\n\nA possible bug: For some reason, using the \"town\"-resource button never caused a town-tile to appear for me, it just drained the mana. Or maybe it was just supposed to increase the population?\n\nAll in all, it was an enjoyable puzzle\/strategy game, and a good entry for your first LD!\n\n>Small starting village.  \n>...spend your mana carefully  \n>Suddenly Stonehenge!

Expanding into a new tile you should be able to make additional towns.
