Blue Byte's PC game is now free to play and more popular than ever.
Doubloons: Players can obtain this new currency when completing in-game quests. It will allow players to get three new buildings, two buffs and one premium ship:
Enhanced marketplace (max TWO per player): offering a larger influence area than the media marketplace.
Old Tree (max ONE per player): this building is a nice artifact from the Original Anno 1404. In it, players can create and collect various items every day.
Scout’s hideout (max ONE per player): this building will reduce the time needed to explore new sectors.
Oriental Ship (max TWO per player): capable of carrying only oriental goods, but in enormous amounts per trip.
All players who have played during the event will automatically be rewarded with an exclusive 15th anniversary statue at the close of the event.
Based on the critically acclaimed Anno 1404, Anno Online delivers the franchise’s proven and popular strategy-simulation gameplay along with the series’ highly-detailed animation and graphics, for the first time in a browser-based title. Players will build and develop great medieval cities using the detailed economic system enjoyed for years by Anno fans. As they satisfy the population’s needs, they will unlock new buildings and face more demanding inhabitants, eventually needing to discover and claim additional islands and connect them with trading routes.
In Anno Online, players start on a deserted island with only two buildings (a harbor and a warehouse) and make the best of their resources to build, manage and expand their territory in order to develop a commercial empire. Trade by ships remains an essential component of the game, and will offer multiplayer possibilities that will further enhance the deep economic system of Anno Online.
