Welcome to the Imperialism II: Age of Exploration Tutorial. When you click ‘Start the first Episode’, below, you will begin Episode 1 of a series of 19 episodes. Each episode sets a goal for you which you must complete to end the episode.
During the tutorial a small feedback window remains open on your screen. You can move this window to any location you like (for instance to see what is underneath it) but it will be present on screen during all 19 episodes. The top part of the window shows feedback about the action you just took. The lower part prompts a possible next action.
You may review the background and goals for the episode by clicking the arrow button on the feedback window. You may consult on-line help briefings by clicking on the question mark button found on all main game screens.
When you have completed all 19 episodes you will be familiar with the basics of Imperialism II. You will be ready to assume your rightful place as a Monarch of a colonial Great Power.
