Added: **Empires & Allies** was Zynga's war-strategy game on Facebook (2011–2013): build an island empire, gather resources, raise an army, navy and air force, and fight your way through the campaign. It's playable again thanks to the **Raise the Empires** preservation project ([github.com/AcidCaos/raisetheempires](https://github.com/AcidCaos/raisetheempires)), whose server we host for L.O.S players.

Added: ## Your empire
Added:
Added: - **Resources:** coins, oil, wood and metals. Collect them from your buildings and use them to build and train.

Added: ## Battles
Added:
Added: - **Campaign:** sail to the enemy islands and take them back one battle at a time.

Added: ## What's different from the original
Added:
Added: - Facebook features are gone: sending gifts and alliances don't work, and the leaderboards say "Coming Soon".
Added: - Some units and buildings never had their pictures recovered, so they're hidden from the shop.
Added: - A few screens whose art was lost close by themselves instead of freezing the game.
