The tutorial in Pharaoh: A New Era will teach you the basics of the game, including how to build and manage your city. It’s going to take your hand through the entire beginning experience.
Plan Your City Carefully
When building your city, it’s important to plan ahead. Consider things like where to place your housing, how to provide water and food to your citizens, and how to organize your industries.
Keep Your Citizens Happy
Happy citizens will work harder and pay more taxes, so it’s important to keep them content. Make sure to provide enough food, water, and entertainment to keep them satisfied.
Build Infrastructure
Infrastructure is important for the smooth functioning of your city. Build roads, bridges, and other transportation options to make sure your citizens and goods can move around easily.
Be Strategic With Your Resources
Resources like food, water, and building materials are limited, so it’s important to use them wisely. Make sure you’re producing enough of everything your city needs, but also keep an eye on your reserves. But also make sure to not neglect the more aesthetic options for your city.
Pay Attention to The Nile
The Nile is a vital resource in Pharaoh providing water and fertile land for farming. Pay attention to the flood cycle and plan your agricultural activities accordingly.
Keep an Eye on Your Finances
Managing your finances is crucial in Pharaoh: A New Era. Make sure you’re making enough money to fund your city’s growth and pay for maintenance and improvements.
Research New Technologies
As your city grows, new technologies will become available to you. Research them immediately to unlock new buildings and industries that can help your city thrive.
Manage Your Workforce
Your citizens will work in the industries and buildings you construct, but they also have needs and limitations. Make sure you’re balancing their work with their rest and entertainment time. Keep an eye on unemployment rates.
Pay Attention to Events
In Pharaoh: A New Era, events like droughts, floods, and plagues can impact your city. Be prepared to respond to these events to minimize their impact on your citizens and your city’s growth.
