Hello there! Other big feature of the upcoming update is new Ages System!
In WorldBox, time moves quickly, so adding a day/night cycle or seasonal changes like winter and summer wouldn't make sense. Instead, we've been working on an Ages System that will take your worlds through a series of years, each with its unique impact on the environment and civilizations.




Some Ages will bring harsh conditions and disasters, while others will introduce magic clouds and better environments for your people to thrive in. The mood of kings/leaders will be influenced, leading to more wars or peaceful periods, and population fertility rates and food growth will be affected!




There will be 10 different Ages, each with a unique name and effects: Age of Hope Age of Sun Age of Dark Age of Tears Age of Moon Age of Chaos Age of Wonders Age of Ice Age of Ash Age of Despair




We won't reveal too much about each age just yet, but the names alone should give you an idea of what to expect! We're currently beta testing the update with some players to ensure everything runs smoothly, and we've already fixed a lot of stuff!




This is also our final sneak peek post before release. Get ready for release that will come out very soon! In case you missed it, check out our latest previews of the upcoming update, which we have shared on Twitter/Steam during the development process!
