Account, player name and one active device
In the online game your whole village is stored in your account on our server, not on your device. That makes it safe if a phone breaks, and it keeps the game fair because the server checks every action.
Your account
- The first time you start, the game creates a guest account for you. A guest account stays with the device you play on.
- Use Secure account in the game menu to connect your village to a LeZo login. Then you can load it on any device. Without it, a lost device means a lost village.
- When you open the same account on a second device, the first one is logged out and shows "Your account was opened on another device". Tap Play here to take the game back. Only one device is active at a time, so two people cannot play at once.
- You can download your data and delete your account any time from the settings menu. Deleting needs a second confirmation, and it removes everything the server keeps about your village.
- The server keeps only a random id, your player name and your game data: no IP address, no e-mail address and no real name.
Player name
- You choose your player name yourself when you start. The game tells you at once whether it works.
- Names have 3 to 16 characters: letters (also with accents) and digits, with a single space or underscore between words. Names that look rude, like real names, e-mail addresses or phone numbers, or that look like another name are refused.
- A name exists only once, so friends can find you.
- You can change your name later, but only once in 30 days and for some gold.
- Tap the Suggest button for a ready-made name if you do not want to choose.
- If a name is rude, tap Report. Nobody sees who reported. After several reports the name is reset to Player and the owner picks a new one.
Account windows and what they say
Every window in the game has a ? button with these three lines. They are repeated here so you can read them in one place.
| Window | How it works | What you get | How to get more |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tap a letter to read it. If it holds a gift, tap "Take gift". Each gift can be taken once. | Letters from Grub bring news, tips and small gifts such as gems, gold or a chest. A gift is always shown before you take it. | Letters arrive as you play: at new levels and Great Halls, when a season ends and when the game gets an update. Every letter keeps for 30 days. | |
| Profile | Your name, level, league and what you have done so far. Tap a tab to see your numbers. | Overview, Battle, Farm and Collection show your real numbers, History lists your last 30 fights, and Mail holds your letters. From here you also reach your titles and frames, the leaderboard, your defense log and the name change. | Play to raise every number here. Your favourite troop and your records follow your fights. |
| Welcome back! | Shows what happened while you were away and what is ready to collect. | Collect all gathers mines, camps, workshops and animals in one tap. | After a longer break you are rested and earn extra XP for a while. |
| Backup | Tap Save backup file to download your village as a file. Tap Load backup file to bring a saved one back, or Restore on a copy in the list. | A safe copy of your village on this device and in a file you keep. Nothing is sent anywhere. | Save a file now and then, and always before you clear your browser data or change devices. |
| Secure account | Tap Sign in with LeZo account. If that account already has a village, you choose which one to play. | Your village is tied to your LeZo account: it is never lost and you can play it on any device. | Only one device plays at a time. Opening the game somewhere else pauses it here. |
| Load this village | Check the village preview, then tap Load my secured village or Keep playing as guest. | Your secured village with all its progress, on this device. | Nothing is mixed: the guest village of this device is not added to your secured village. |
| Delete account? | Tap Continue to go on, or Keep my village to stop. A second check follows. | Everything our server keeps about your village is deleted. | Want a copy first? Use Download my data in Settings. |
| Last check | Tap Delete forever to delete everything, or Cancel to keep your village. | Your village, leaderboard entry, clan membership and friends are removed from our server. | This cannot be undone. A new guest village starts the next time you open the game. |
| Backup found | Tap Restore to bring the saved copy back, or Not now to start fresh and decide later. | Your village, level and buildings come back as they were when the copy was made. | Not now keeps the copy safe: you can restore it later in Settings, Backup. |
| Replace your village? | Compare the two villages, then tap Replace or Cancel. | The backup becomes your village. Your current village is kept as Before last restore. | Changed your mind? Open Settings, Backup and restore Before last restore. |
| Choose your name | Type the name you want, or tap Suggest for a ready-made one. The game tells you at once if a name does not work. | Your name shows in rankings, clans, friends and duels. Every name exists only once, so friends can find you by it. | You can change your name later in your profile: your first change is free, after that it costs gold and works once every 30 days. Please don't use your real name. |
| Fair play rules | Read the short rules, then tap OK. You find them again under Settings. | Nothing to win: the rules keep the game friendly for everyone, young and old. | There is no chat. Choose a kind name, report rude names with the small flag, and never share your real name, e-mail or phone number. |
| Report name? | Tap Report if a name is rude or shows someone's real name, e-mail or phone number. | Nobody sees who reported. After several reports the name is reset to Player and the player can choose a new one for free. | Reporting is anonymous and free. Please only report names that really break the rules. |
