Get energy drinks by completing quests. Use them to pass the ball, score goals and get great rewards!


The time has come! You will yet again host one of the most important tournaments in Forge of Empires. The great sporting event will begin already today (23rd of May)! Skilled soccer players will arrive to your city to compete in the Soccer Cup! Cheer for your city's team and help the coach lead them to victory by choosing the most efficient way of passing the ball on the pitch!

You're taking part in a soccer match, and you decide how to pass the ball from one player to another to eventually reach the goal of the opposing team:

Choose one of your teammates and pass the ball to them. Every time you pass the ball, you receive a reward:

You can see what rewards are possible by clicking the "?" icon on the portrait of the players you can pass the ball to.

Doing so, however, costs the members of your team some energy, so they need to consume energy drinks! Each time you pass a ball, you use some of them. Complete quests in order to get more! You will be able to complete 33 quests immediately, and then you will receive one quest per day until the last day of the event. The daily quests will stack, so you will probably have a few of them waiting for you, when you're done with the initial 33 quests.
The coach will also give you some free energy drinks if you come back every day :).

Obviously, as in every soccer game, the main goal is... the goal (ba dum tss!) ;). With every pass you proceed towards it, which is represented by a progress bar:

The goalkeeper of the opposing team will soon need to face the reality: he's no match for your skilled forwards! Upon scoring, you will receive a valuable goal reward.

Speaking of rewards... We will have some old rewards from previous events coming back, but that's not all! As you may have expected, we will have a few brand new buildings for you to collect :).
There are three new sport-themed buildings to get:

Ornate Baths
3x4 - Culture building
Provides happiness and boosts supply production (from 5% in Bronze Age to 10% in Oceanic Future).

Contestants Estate
2x3 - Residential building
Produces coins and provides a 3% attack boost. Additionally, produces medals when motivated.

Tholos of Idols
4x4
Tholos of Idols is a special upgradable building. Once you have gotten it on the level 1 (expect it in one of the first quests), you will then have a chance to upgrade it up to nine times! In order to do so, advance through the questline and get upgrade items. You can also get them as Goal Rewards. Then, use them on your current Tholos of Idols to upgrade it.

Tholos of Idols will provide happiness by default. When motivated, it will also produce coins. After upgrading to level 2, you will get supplies on top (when motivated). Level 3 will add medals, levels 4, 6, 8 and 10 will each add a Forge Point. On levels 5, 7 and 9 you can expect goods to be added to the building's output.
Remember to always keep it motivated, to guarantee the additional production!

But that is not all! There is one more building that we wanted to add to the game with this event - the Little Wishing Well:

The Little Wishing Well has exactly the same values as a regular Wishing Well, but is smaller (2x3)! The only way to get it is by shrinking one (or more) of your existing Wishing Wells with a Wishing Well Shrink Kit.

The Wishing Well Shrink Kit can be obtained as a Goal Reward, and you will also find it among Daily Specials, as well as in the questline itself.

The Soccer Cup on Beta will end on June 24th. We hope you enjoy our new event!

As always, your feedback is very important for us, so don't forget to comment here! Please also make sure to mention any bugs you may encounter. We'll be grateful for your help.

Two important notes before you begin testing:

1. The leaderboard (mentioned in the event's infoscreen) is not available yet. We hope to enable it later this week.
2. As the mobile app in the version required by the Soccer Cup is not yet available in the stores, the event is only playable in the browser version for now. We plan on enabling it on mobile within the next two weeks.

Thank you for your patience and for your help! :)

Yours,
The Forge of Empires Beta Team

Dear Queens and Kings,

With the upcoming daily update we will enable the previously mentioned leaderboard system for the Soccer Cup!

What is it?
It is an additional layer of the event, where according to the number of goals you scored you are placed in one of five "Leagues".
  1. Gold League
  2. Silver League
  3. Bronze League
  4. Amateur League
  5. Hobby League
How do I advance to a higher league (or get relegated)?
The Leagues are divided based on the percentage of the amount of goals scored by all players. As an example, the top 1% of players will appear in the Gold League, while 50% of the players who scored the least goals will appear in the Hobby League.
If you stay active, you are likely to be promoted to a higher league, while lower level of activity will result in relegation.

Rewards
At the end of the event, everyone will receive rewards according to the league they are in :).

  • Hobby League = 10 Forge Points
  • Amateur League = 20 Forge Points + One Up Kit
  • Bronze League = 50 Forge Points + One Up Kit + Wishing Well Shrink Kit
  • Silver League = 100 Forge Points + One Up Kit + Wishing Well Shrink Kit + Tholos Upgrade Kit
  • Gold League = 200 Forge Points + One Up Kit + Wishing Well Shrink Kit + Tholos Upgrade Kit + Shrine of Knowledge & an exclusive soccer portrait!

Please note that the numbers and rewards presented above are subject to change according to your feedback and actual distribution we see in the game.

Thank you for playing the Soccer Cup event! :)

Yours,
The Forge of Empires Beta Team
