The Battle of Polytopia has injected a thrilling new competitive element: Weekly Challenges! This exciting addition offers a fresh way to test your strategic mettle in this beloved 4X strategy game.
From Randomness to Rigorous Competition
Polytopia's charm lies in its inherent randomness—shifting enemies, fluctuating resources, and ever-changing maps. But this free update introduces a structured competitive arena. Each week, every player receives the same map, the same tribe, and identical starting conditions. The challenge? Maximize your score within 20 turns. You get one attempt per day, for a maximum of seven attempts per week.
This new feature allows you to experience tribes you might not own. The game boasts 16 tribes—four included in the base game, and twelve more available for purchase. However, in Weekly Challenges, everyone plays as the same tribe, regardless of ownership.
Check out the latest trailer from the developers:
Will Weekly Challenges Elevate Polytopia's Excitement?
The new mode introduces a compelling League system. You begin in the Entry League, ascending (or descending) based on your weekly performance. The top third advances, the bottom third drops, and the middle remains. Difficulty scales with your league progression; Entry League features Easy AI, while Gold League pits you against Crazy difficulty bots. Missing a week won't demote you, but your ranking will adjust based on other players' progress.
Download the game from the Google Play Store and experience the new Weekly Challenges today!
