Commencing your journey in Polynesia introduces you to Kamehameha I, who has many quests for you. These missions are your key to inspiring a grand celebration among the island's inhabitants.

Successfully completing these quests not only advances your Embassy, but also unveils exotic cultural buildings for your colony.

What's New?

NO ROADS!
The intrigue of the Polynesian settlement lies in its unique approach to urban planning — there's no need for street connections for the cultural edifices. In fact, streets are off the table completely. This gives you the creative freedom to design your island paradise without constraints!

New Production Times
For its cultural buildings, the Polynesian Settlement has different production times compared to those you might have seen in the other Settlements.

The new times are as follows:

  • Instead of 4h, 8h and 24h Cultural Goods productions now are 5h, 10h and 20h.
  • Instead of 4h, 8h and 24h Cultural Diplomacy productions now are 5h, 10h and 20h.

Polynesia Goods and Resources

For the Polynesian Empire, you will need to gather new Goods to progress, and you will also have new resources available to help you on your way. When you have collected enough resources, you can unlock either new buildings or expansions.

Impediments

Impediments are also present in the Polynesian Settlement, and they will restrict your building area, thus making each Settlement a puzzle! Every time you start a new playthrough, those impediments will be rearranged, adding an extra layer of challenge to designing the layout. However, just like in previous Settlements, these impediments can be removed with pickaxes.

Polynesia Expansions

In the Polynesian Cultural Settlement, expansions can be purchased with cultural goods or Diamonds. You can select what cultural good you would like to pay for any expansion and only one of the goods is needed per expansion.
