# Ninelands wiki

Welcome to r/Ninelands! Every day at 00:01 UTC a new post appears here with a fresh 9×9 map. Everyone plays the same
map, only your first game counts, and the comments are where we compare realms.

## Pages

- [How to play](/r/Ninelands/wiki/how_to_play): pieces, land, gold and stars
- [Laws of the realm](/r/Ninelands/wiki/laws): the special rule each map brings
- [Strategy](/r/Ninelands/wiki/strategy): tips that hold up, tested by computer players
- [Leaderboard, streaks and your realm](/r/Ninelands/wiki/faq): how ranking works, flairs, unlocks and questions

## Quick start

1. Open the newest daily post and press **Play**.
2. Place your **castle** where its four lines run long.
3. Grow with free **farmers**, take ore and herbs with **knights** and **bishops**.
4. Reach the gold goal, rule the lands goal, or both: up to three stars.
5. Press **💬 Post to comments** and see how everyone else did.

## About

Ninelands for Reddit is the daily edition of [Ninelands](https://ninelands.stackteam.at), a strategy board game I
made. It runs on the web, desktop, Android and itch.io; the full game also has campaigns, puzzles and duels.
