- Update Notes for July 2022 - 24 July 2022
Due to our data backend provider discontinuing their service, AoR will no longer have online (cloud) accounts. Your data will now be stored on your device only. All content (card packs, cards, rivals) will always be fully unlocked. Coins, quests, and campaigns will just be for fun. Multiplayer games will continue to work as normal. See www.darkinertia.com for more information. Thank you for your continued support as we work to ensure that Age of Rivals will always be playable.
- Local Multiplayer (Hot Seat) Mode Added - 19 December 2018
Now two players can play a friendly match of Age of Rivals on the same computer! Just select the Hot Seat mode, select two rivals, and have fun outwitting your opponent to his/her face. More info at https://darkinertia.com/recent-updates/

- Update: Several Bugfixes - 9 August 2017
Update 3.13 fixes several reported bugs: - Cards that lose all culture no longer show a visible value of 0. This was confusing with respect to abilities that target cards with culture (like Onagers). - Sometimes player names didn’t show up in the end game stats dialog. - Sometimes icons weren’t showing in the right location in ability text when opening card packs. - When Reinforcements get knocked out or blocked, the buffed card no longer incorrectly loses all its attack. - Abilities that are blocked no longer incorrectly trigger when ruined (such as Ruiner of All Things). - When a card that is buffed by Assacani or Chariots gets swapped (by Master Thief), it now correctly loses the buff. - Temple of Protection will no longer incorrectly waste its ability trying to save Shock Troops. http://robotogames.com/updates/

- Update: Faster Progression - 30 June 2017
Today's update features 30% higher coin rewards for all game types and coin rewards even when losing for all game types. Now you can unlock all cards in the game faster and earn your way to fully unlocked rivals in no time. Is Lorenzo's Prince in Hiding giving you a hard time?

- Update: No Internet Required! - 27 June 2017
You can now play completely offline without needing to register or log in! Almost all aspects of the game can be enjoyed as an anonymous offline user. The only things you have to log in for are multiplayer, Alliances, and monthly tournament stats, because these features all depend on a server. More details here: http://robotogames.com/faq-support-forums/ Also, now the intro missions are dismissible just like the later missions. You can still only dismiss one mission per 24 hours. But now you can get rid of that one mission you've been ignoring since the start.

- Update: Password Management and More - 16 May 2017
Today's update includes better password management features. You can still email [email protected] to request a password reset, but now you can change your password in-game any time you like. We will continue to improve in-game account management over time. We have also adjusted the difficulty of the Hard Prince-In-Hiding challenge level. Now Lorenzo begins this level with negative VP (-6). Thanks for the continued feedback!
