Mega Lo Mania/Gameplay

Island selection
At the start of each epoch, you are given 100 men; these men will need to be allocated among three different islands within an epoch.

To enter a battle, select one of the islands. Allocate the number of starting men in your tower, and select one of the sectors for a given island.

Main game screen

 * Information: Provides information about resource cost for researched technologies.
 * Attack: Allows you to move men from the tower (along with weapons) and into the current or nearby sector. The forces will automatically engage enemies within a given sector (with unarmed men being given a weak attack), or will build a new tower in a vacant sector.
 * Defense: Allows you to assign a man to a defensive point on a building.
 * Repair: Views the health of a tower, and gives the option to repair it (after researching a technology)
 * Mine: Shows and allows allocating resource production. Resources shown with a hand are automatically collected. Others need dedicated miners.
 * Build: Allows construction of additional buildings, such as a mine, factory, or laboratory.
 * Invent: Allows researching shields (used to repair towers), defenses, or weapons.
 * Produce: Constructs advanced weapons, such as catapults.

The game speed is controlled by the man icon on the top. There are three speed settings available, with most versions automatically slowing down the game if your tower is under attack.

You can click the shield icon for a rival deity to offer an alliance. If it is accepted, you will be able to assist in combat with the other deity, but will be unable to build towers as long as the alliance holds. If there are no other gods left, the alliance will dissolve.
