Temple and feasts

The temple

The temple stands in your capital. It gives two things:

• Happiness: 2 points on the happiness target for every level.
• A free chest every 12 hours.

Chests

When a chest is ready, the town shows Chest ready over the temple. Open the temple and pick one of 3 chests. A chest holds one of three things:

• Resources. The amount grows with the size of your empire.
• Troops, of a kind you can already train.
• Happiness, a short boost for your capital.

Every 4 chests you open earn a bonus chest worth ×3.

Feasts

The town centre holds feasts. A feast costs 5,000 gold for every town centre level, and raises the happiness target by the town centre level for 12 hours.

• One feast at a time per province.
• A province whose target is already at 120 cannot hold a feast.
• Feasts run on real time, the same on every world.
