From ancient pyramids to modern skyscrapers, massive construction projects can be found throughout history. Though they may have been built for different reasons, they always fascinate us, and they always require exceptional effort and careful planning. That won’t deter us, though, as we want to create a grand city for perhaps the most simple reason: Vanity, because a ruler needs (or at least wants) an impressive seat of power. Let’s see who can build the most impressive capital city filled with Cultural Wonders! 



 

Scenario Conditions 

  • Difficulty: Nation 

  • Speed: Fast 

  • End Conditions: Turn Limit 

  • Game version: Vauban Update, No DLC, no Mods 

 

IMPORTANT: Please make sure all DLC and other additional content are disabled before you load the save. In the past, we have noticed severe technical issues if players mentioned to load a save while different DLC was active. 

 

As this scenario is provided through a save file, these conditions cannot be changed, and they are listed only for your information. The save should remain compatible with future versions of the game, but this is not guaranteed. 

 


How to play the scenario: 

  1. Download the save file
  2. Place the save in “/Documents/Humankind/Save Files”  
  3. Load the save labeled “Scenario-CityofWonders” in game 
  4. Play to add as many Cultural Wonders as possible to your capital and win the game
    For the leaderboard, winning is defined as having the highest Fame Score at game end 
  5. Submit a score to the leaderboard, as described below 

 


How to Submit your Score to the Leaderboard 

  1. On your victory turn, create a manual save with your G2G username and turn number in the name 
  2. Take a screenshot of your victory screen 
  3. Please also take screenshots of the different wonders in your capital so everybody can appreciate your beautiful city 
  4. Create a thread in the Scenario 10 Contest Section, please mention your fame score in the title or text 
  5. Include the save and screenshots in your submission post 
  6. If you have played again and wish to submit a new score: 
    • Reply to your existing thread with a new post including save and screenshot 
    • Do not edit your original post with the new score 
    • Please do not forget to update your own submission thread, even if you have shared your new score somewhere else 

 

Important Note: Please do not rename the save file through your OS. If you rename the save file (instead of changing the name in game when saving), this change will not display correctly in game if we have to check the save. 

 

All entries will be added to the leaderboard, ranked by how many Cultural Wonders (except Holy Sites) they have built in their capital. In case of a tie, higher fame scores will be ranked higher. 

While everybody will be entered into the Leaderboard displayed in the contest section after the challenge ends, only the top players will be worthy of entering the “Hall of Fame” and receiving a special Games2Gether badge to commemorate their success. Please note that the badges may not be ready by the end of the challenge, and you may receive them later.
